Gibsonm Posted February 25, 2018 Share Posted February 25, 2018 (edited) BLUF (Bottom Line Up Front) then background, etc. most readers will already know who BG ANZAC is, but if not feel free to read the entire post. Timings: Thursday evenings, Australian East Coast time. Through a combination of democracy, state's rights and bl**dy mindedness, the country is now fractured into numerous time zones (three wasn't enough) for the next six months and we need to adjust the start time. Next meeting: 0830 GMT on Thursday, March 1st. 0830 in London (GMT / Zulu) 1630 in Perth 1800 in Darwin 1900 in Adelaide 1830 in Brisbane 1930 in Sydney, Melbourne, Canberra (my time this week) 2130 NZST in Auckland Your Local time: Local time for your part of the world Count down: Time remaining until Meeting start Mission will start promptly at 0830 GMT. If you want a pre game "chat" then by all means come on line at say 0800 GMT, but so that the Kiwi's aren't after Midnight the Mission will commence promptly at 0830 GMT. In game chat / Communications: You'll need access to "Teamspeak" to communicate with us. This is detailed here: http://www.steelbeasts.com/sbwiki/index.php?title=Starter_Pack Remote Access / Screen Sharing / Whiteboard Sessions: We continue the use of TeamViewer so people without the Steel Beasts software can connect and see and hear what we see and hear (looking over our shoulder if you like). http://www.teamviewer.com/en/index.aspx?pid=google.tv.s.au&gclid=CPLOveOGlcECFVgkvQodqk0A4g This maybe a suitable vehicle for people to see what the software is all about (you can even use it on a Mac), without having to invest in even a short time limited copy. Anyway we'll see how it goes. Agenda: Back from the Bay. In terms of this Thursday night, depends on sign ups but: 1. If we get enough people coming back, perhaps run their solutions to the homework given out previously? 2. Discuss Rolling Thunder 18 - make sure people know what it is and they have put it in their diaries (or signed up). 2. a. Might be scope to do a second, brief, test of Mission 3 (frame rates, etc.). I have both a "full" version and a version with MGs, medics, etc. removed from all three sides, so we can "compare and contrast" performance. 3. Revisiting some "not so easy missions" from the past - probably harder still after 4.023. These need a few people to turn up. 4. Do some "Brilliant at the Basics" work? As always, visitors / first timers / spectators are welcome. Current Standard: 4.023 Please use the new Calendar RSVP function or post here to facilitate planning.

smithcorp Posted February 27, 2018 Share Posted February 27, 2018 Damn, would like to get some BP and fire control training, but unavailable this week due to a work function. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gibsonm Posted February 28, 2018 Author Share Posted February 28, 2018 Well I wouldn't be too upset, there's a lot of "hope to be there" and "aim to be there", but not so much "will be there", so it may not happen. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chrisreb Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 Thanks Mark for the session this morning - very good as always. Have made some minor amendments to the scenario from this morning as per have amended today's mission to make it playable. Red had 3 batteries of Arty and we had none! Red had IEDs on first bridge and we had no engineers and IEDs not visible. I now have no IEDs and only 6 tubes arty per side which should make it playable Bridges at al-Taibiya with arty.sce 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gibsonm Posted March 1, 2018 Author Share Posted March 1, 2018 (edited) Ah perhaps you are meant to clear the bridge with dismounts, who then notice and neutralise the IED - unfortunately nothing about that was in the briefing.

chrisreb Posted March 2, 2018 Share Posted March 2, 2018 Oh well removed them anyway. Also increased mission time from the daft 45 mins it was. Oh well off to do some snow shovelling! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
