[Fryer.T]

Element Callsign: Gunslinger-7
Element Leader: Private First Class Fryer.T
7th Cavalry Personnel Within Element:
Private First Class Von Knispel.K
Master Sergeant Zimm.L (RET)

Pros
first time running as medic and had fun

cons
1. CLS running full medic setups not a CLS setup allowing 7 not to do much
2. Problems with a public player telling the PLT medic how to do our job
3. 7 not getting called a whole lot over PLT net at the beginning

 

[DeCann.A]

7th Cavalry Members involved:
SPC.DeCann.A

Non 7th Cavalry members involved:
User: HotMic

Pro's:
Communication was excellent through out the entire operation between Gun 5 and Raven-1/2
Flying was wonderful and good landings
LZ's were well placed in areas where insertions were needed.


Cons:
Lost radio contact with Gun 5 towards the very beginning but was regained shortly after.

Had 1 public player by the name Wacko disrupting insertions being completed via raven-1, player would sit above MOB Levie and hover above raven-1 while waiting on packs to insert.

Element Callsign: Gunslinger 1
Element Leader: Specialist Nance.T

7th Cavalry Personnel Within Element:
Specialist MacMillan.M
Specialist Valiante.M
Specialist Kron.D
Staff Sergeant Blake.H
Private First Class Tremblay.J

Non-7th Cavalry Personnel Within Element:
MadJewishGuy
TwoShotJimmy (Might've got this one wrong)

Pros:

• Had two great FTLs, great intra squad cohesion and communication.
• Worked pretty well with Gunslinger-4 to capture supply point.
• Outside of initial ambush took very few casualties.
• Non cav members did a great job working within the fireteams and had a good time.

Cons/Improves:

• Felt like the platoon was unaware of possible contacts enroute to RP.
• Should have a plan for how to react to contact/ambush in convoy operations.

 

[Cade.B]

Element Callsign: Raider-1
Element Leader: Specialist Cade.B
7th Cavalry Personnel Within Element:
Specialist Wilson.R

Pros:

• Good Pilot and CP pair, good communication and synchronization.
• Enjoyed the fact of having a raider element and being able to sign up for it.
• Got more gun action towards the end and was utilized more for recon.

Cons:

• Raider wasn't used at all practically towards the start and middle of the operation. Wasn't utilized for even recon, leading to BLUFOR getting in an ambush causing ~19 casualties.

Element Callsign: Banshee 1
Element Leader: Captain Rodahl.S

7th Cavalry Personnel Within Element:
Specialist Birch.J
Private First Class Johnsen.M

Pros:

• Fun
• Good coms
• Good ammount of vehicles for milsim purposes
• Great ambush conduucet by GMs.

Cons:

• Ambush very much inside of Blue territory.
  • Uexpected and very well set up, but at some point we're going to have OICs refusing to mount vehicles and instead just walk the 9 kilometers to the objectives.
• Vehicle contacts did not pose a challenge for the Bradleys. Unforunately , this is a limitation of the AI, and will almost never be fulfilled.
• Some extended quiet moments.

N/A

Pros:

• Very fun and immersive through out the operation with the ambush, setting the tone
• Great communication between Raven-1 insert's and Raven-2 Re-supply
• Platoon movement felt swift and that there wasn't a lot of down time, perfect amount of time to re-consolidate
• Directions were clear and concise, and was a blast helping helios

Cons:

• The ambush happened a little to prematurely where reinserts were able to just run from MOB Levi and get back into the fight.
• Technical difficulties lead to either me leaning and strafing, or my headset, keyboard and mouse would disconnect causing faulty coms at points
• Left the vehicles at the ambush spot and continued on foot
• using a civilian van as a resupply vehicle rather than authorized vehicles
• someone killed a POW before taking them back to Gunslinger-6
