Pros:
  • The entire crew had a fun time
  • Supplies were delivered to COP, about 4 total runs before it was completely full
  • The downed pilot scenario went really well and got to engage some folks on the ground
  • Excellent idea and execution for the operation
Cons:
  • The supply runs aren't very interesting or engaging, so we had to make a little bit more fun to make up for that

Pros:
  • Liked the mission concept moving through the town + insurgents
  • First timers enjoyed the slides and the planning, appreciate the work from CoC.
  • Worked well as a team, both FTLs were doing it for the first time, one in his first op.
  • Easy took over SLing after MacMillan went down, smooth after it was clear.
  • Checkpoint Truck was fun
  • Great coordination moving to obj w Viking 2


Cons:
  • Disorganized after we hit the town
  • 1hr 15 mins before we saw contact after a mass casualty event
  • 3 Choppers hovering at some point
  • Long drive, disorg and transport out
  • As the op went on we dwindled down to 5 pax.
  • Server stability/connection issues/frequent disconnects
  • Felt like a lot was happening and nothing was happening - some chaos
  • 2nd squad wipe for 1 at the first obj, some confusion due to Rust.
  • Lots of walking back and forth

Suggested improvement: Quick leaders brief before stepping off?

Pros:
  • New players had fun working with the Cav
  • Sierras seemed to work well with the new mods.
  • Side missions are a nice touch and add to immersion

Cons:
  • Seemed the plan did not go as explained in the briefing.
  • Light on contact, only one real engagement for the entire op
  • One trooper was reinserted into a hot zone, killed immediately, then the pilot crashed leaving him abandoned at MOB for the second half of the op.
  • Hard to get in communication with 6 as they were pushing with 2 squads in a different AO
