Number Within Campaign: N/A
Game: ARMA 3
Server Hosted on: TacR
Date of Combat Mission: 09OCT2024
Time of Combat Mission (Zulu): 2200z (0100GMT+2)
Element: Atlas 2 - SPC.Bryan.R

Squadmates: SPC.Winters.R

Pros: Plenty of Work

Cons: Kat medical update broke a lot of health options and settings
Communication with other elements
The Platoon left behind both atlas and Misfit - 7 while they were dealing with a mass cass, leaving us with no protection

 

[Blake.H]

Element Callsign: Misfit-7
Element Leader: Sergeant Blake.H

Pros:

• Fun mission
• Decent coms on Platoon
• Decent coms on 56 with ATLAS

Cons:

• KAT CBA settings and other KAT related learning topics
• Lots of black tags
• Medics tried to retrieve down infantry in a minefield and became casualties
• Platoon abandoned ATLAS at at MASCAS on OBJ2.
• Enemy EI assaulting through the same minefield friendlies just blew up in.
• MRAP's are junk, they flip too easy and have no engine power.
• Unable to dispatch medics to RED TAGS in a timely manner on two occasions.

Element Callsign: Misfit-4

Element Leader: Corporal McAllen.J

7th Cavalry Personnel Within Element:

Private First Class Banks.M
Private Shakeshaft.S
Specialist MacTavish.J
Sergeant Crowley.T
Sergeant First Class Westcott.R
Chief Warrant Officer 3 Sparrow.P

Pros:

• Plenty of Contact
• Mortar team was amazing tonight and enjoyed doing their role
• Internal comms were great
• No black tags/ vehicles lost
• Overall the mission was well made

Cons:

• Lots of blue on blue tonight
• The plan could have been fleshed out more with phase lines and lanes to prevent B on B incidents
• PID was difficult to do since the OpFor looked similar to us
• The push off the OP went poorly because patrols ambushed us and Atlas-2 from behind

Notes: First time doing infantry SLing and it was interesting to try it out but I would've prefered a assault squad rather than weapons just because of inexperience with the equipment.

Pros:

• Good squad comms, bounding/cover while clearing through AOI 1
• Flexible movement based on high alert SA of friendly troops, securing flanks constantly executing sensory for platoon
• Thanks to Atlas and Misfit-7 always on position treating red-tags, enabling momentum of Misfit-2

Cons:

• Lack of Plan and constant fraggos through the objectives causing confusion leading to mislead decisions due to requirement of hasty movement.
• BLUE ON BLUE INCIDENTS FROM BOTH MISFIT-1 and MISFIT-4
• Plan through mission critical obstacles layed out/marked (or) briefing of mission critical equipment.
• In regards to consistent operations with unclear planning are causing confusion troopers increasing stress as to gaming itself rather than stress from milsim realism based on situations.
  ** Request to conduct detailed and fluid planning of operations or SL's to be briefed prior to mission briefing so field leadership can also have the vision of plan and time to digest before the execution of the operation.
• Due to limitation of operation times, requesting leaders brief on field if it can be efficient with prior smoothing of the mission between OIC and SLs. Reducing the time of wait time during the op among troopers to keep edge on focus and well execution of their participated time for the operation
  
  (Many above reasons maybe due to myself being limited to be decisive in broader situations due to inexperience which I will continue to work on and improve. These cons are intended with respect and well intention of well spent operation time from trooper to mission maker)
