Pros:

• My guys had fun, well fought.
• Good swapping around of roles to meet whatever we faced. Good Cycles for Tanks, AT, Engineers.
• Good instincts by my guys patrolling where the pressure was.

Cons:

• Lost x1 half way through.
• I think our opening was kind of mid, it was tough due to a lot of personnel change. I didn't want to be over bearing with planning but I think I will do more micro next time.
• I could have talked more to Hellious about starting procedures, when to move trucks if nodes weren't up in time. Didn't expect to be a squad lead so I kind of whiffed it on my truck execution. Probably should have left some folks behind for the 1st​spawn to get there quicker.
