Element Callsign: Gunslinger-5
Element Leader: Master Sergeant Willson.JA

Pros:

• Had a blast with this one.
• Great mission objective and concept.
• Comms were good and made operating a lot easier for the team.
• GMs did a great job and handled the flow really well.
• Having AI opponents was a plus and made it more challenging.
  
  Cons:
• I have none. This was fantastic and makes me want to attend more of these PVP operations.

Element Callsign: Gunslinger-6/1
Element Leader: Second Lieutenant MacMillan.M
Corporal Brophy.C
Corporal McGahan.L
Corporal Searle.I
Private Jennings.D
Recruit Romano.W

Pros:

• Everyone had a lot of fun
• Good coordination, good planning and the leadership elements which led to great teamwork.
• Lots of very cinematic moments
• Great having Bandit-5 and Bandit-4 present, made my life a lot easier.
• Excellent scenario from GMs. AI were used well and the execution of PvPvE was spot on.

Cons:

• Could have come up with a more concrete plan, marker limitations prevented marking all the buildings, recommend adding the drawing on map mod for flexibility.
• AI placement was at times within view of players

Element Callsign: VIPER-6
Element Leader: Specialist Utters.M


Pros:

• everyone one OP-4 had a great time. very positive feedback on the gameplay, mission objective and the idea of collecting helmets like a "confirmed kill" or "dog tag" system was a highly enjoyed idea by everyone

Cons:

• i need to work better on being 6 its something that i have a lot of room for improvement on, because of my leadership some people were feeling kind of all over the place and lacked direction
• our attack helicopter said the view distance was a limitation
• AI were being spawned infront of us sometimes, not a big deal but it was surprising having people clear areas and then have AI spawn in those cleared areas

Element Callsign: Gunslinger 4 (Bandit-4)
Element Leader: Specialist Hartshock.P
7th Cavalry Personnel Within Element:
Corporal Mack.A
Specialist Hoover.R
Specialist Marquez.E
Specialist Townsend.E
Private First Class Markham.C

Sustains:

• Every player enjoyed this event in multiple ways throughout the two hours.
• Great Gunslinger 5/6 leadership throughout the OP, and overall plan development.
• Very cinematic, 'movie' feeling most of the OP.
• Great turnout from Bandit Platoon!
• Excellent scenario from GMs. AI were used well and the execution of PvPvE was spot on.
• The scenario felt realistic and balanced throughout the OP.
• The map used was a little small but still offered diversity in attacking/maneuvering.
• Teamwork from all elements was excellent.
• The 'Game Mode' / 'Objective' was unique and fun.

Improve:

• Could have a more concrete plan, marker limitations prevented marking all the buildings, recommend adding the drawing as well.
• AI placement was at times within view of players and seemed slightly unrealistic in some areas of the OP.

​

Element Callsign: Raider 1 / Chaos 1 (For the majority of OP, we used Mobius and Easy for call sign as there were no other call signs assigned)
Element Leader: Corporal Mobius.T

7th Cavalry Personnel Within Element:
Corporal Mobius.T
Corporal Easy.G
Private First Class Madlock.B


Pros:

• Everybody enjoyed the operation. Seemed very refreshing as we never had mission settings like this before.

Cons:

• CAS bird had really limited view / rendering distance - often resulting in other being engaged first, and or failing to tally targets as targets would render as the aircraft flew past over their heads.
• JTAC utilization was very low. Target acquisition had to be done almost alone.
• Responses on draw back calls on Platoon Net was very slow. Multiple CAS calls got delayed to the point where it was called off due to being ineffective by the time people cleared the vicinity.
• Team work/Coordination was pretty poor. BLUFOR was maneuvering with much tighter coordination throughout the game.
