Pros:

• Great leading 20+ Troopers and Pub members holding OBJ Iowa
• Very immersive defending and being pinched
• Everyone was very attentive to the orders given and directions to contact
• Great covering sections
• Flying with some new Arma reforger recruits and LTC.Beiter was really fun and had some intense moments

Cons:

• Building an arsenal completely depleted our resources making it impossible to allocate resources properly
• Communication between us and Plt broke down as the operation went along
• too many sections with only 1 or 2 troopers in it
• PLT comms cluttered and arguments ensued

Element Callsign: Blufor commander
Element Leader: Captain Rodahl.S

Pros:

• A lot of new recruitment potential.
• Overall a lot of Fun.
• Wrangling the public players were a time consuming task but ultimately fun task.

Cons:

• Platoon radio is very easily crowded by people who dont need to be there.
• Supplies seems to always be picked apart at a rate higher than the passive generation.
• The small map easily leads to easy chokeholds on main bases.
  • The intent my not be there, but due to the popularity of the server, main camping will happen regardless.
• The squads keep dissolving into single - person squads.
  • Could a slotting lobby be possible? And make the "leave squad" unavailable?

Lessons learned:

• The arsenal needs to be deconstructed on the initial base
  • Either increase the cost, or remove it completely at the MOB. - Or remove the cost from kits.
• As a commander you can't build any of the impactful building?
  • This is subject to change in 1.3 or further patches as per roadmap.
• Get the radio in base, light vehicles, then the Radio points and Victory points. You will 100% need a logistics team, and they need to work as a coordinated unit to have any success.
• There is a lot of easy hate and team-killing in the main bases.
  • We should have dedicated MPs on Friday Firefight.
