Pros: Lots of fun, This was my first WW2 op and it was blast. I had to be a runner a bit as well

Cons: The vanilla medical stuff was a bit buggy. I saw folks floating in the air, under the map and fold flopping around and down players disappearing. Other than that no other cons.

Pros:
  • Shot well over 50 rnds of 81mm HE.
  • Charged a Sturmtiger and blew it up using demolitions.
  • Little bit of CQB inside a church.
  • Lots of new public players.

Cons:
  • Intially lost our Jeep and mortar arsenal which slowed down the intall rounds going out.
  • Didn't see the 1-piece mortar which was talked about.
  • Confusing communication on the fall-back order.
  • Internal working on Mils/Range/Bearings when doing calculations.
  • Console mostly not being be able to join.

harmful (public player)


Pros:
  • Great communication between FTLs
  • Good communication with leadership elements
  • Jump was fun
  • OP seemed well planned, and it was very fun
  • Contact was good
  • Echoing commands throughout the squad was good
  • Squad used cover / concealment when maneuvering
  • Harry single-handedly took out a sturmtiger with a demo charge (impressive)
  • Guys want more WW2 themed OPs

Cons:
  • Couple incidents of miscommunication between myself and leadership which led to us backtracking a couple times
  • Contact was light at the end of the bridge due to misfit taking initiative and crossing before bandit could
  • Was hoping for a counterattack at the end of the OP
  • Should have used my runners more than I did
  • Couple guys had issues with the jump, but overall, it was okay.

Non-7th Cavalry Personnel Within Element:

POURIN4S

Sustains:
  • Good squad cohesion, good echoing of orders, solid movements
  • Good running to get orders from platoon
  • WW2 aspect was fun. Big shoutout to S3 for getting this working after the recent updates
  • Always in mutual support range with Bandit-1
  • Took no black tags

Improves:
  • Lacking finer details of Company plan. There is some extra difficulty with so many last minute sign ups
  • Plan that was established was thrown out when sister platoon pushed past security posture and cleared town.
  • Bandit platoon felt forgotten as Misfit pushed through both objectives, "felt like the op was catered to one group"
  • Due to miscommunications were sent back and forth across the bridge multiple times.
  • One member of squad on console was not able to see anything, was looking at a black screen the entire op

Element Callsign: Hitman-6
Element Leader: First Lieutenant MacMillan.M
7th Cavalry Personnel Within Element:
Major Lewis.A
Corporal Law.S

Sustains:
  • Good cohesion across platoons
  • Concept was new and interesting
  • Outstanding participation
  • Good activity for Company staff level, this was a nice new challenge
  • Radio man and runner did excellent.

Improves:
  • Addition of pioneer platoon gave us a third arm we werent planning for, need to do better next time for making sure they get involved
  • Jump caused sporadic deaths for a lot of members, inability to control chutes had just jumping 3x just to get in
  • Console players unable to join, us in S3 need to figure out better testing methods.
