Winter 1971 - A Platoon of M60A1s, and some mech infantry support, attacks trough a valley held by Soviet mech infantry company.
- We have priority of artillery, and lots of support and reinforces.
- Multicrew tank platoon leads the way and get's reinforces. This is proving to be lot's of action and various types of targets to shoot at
- A1s have NO THERMALS
>>> This is a MULTICREW scenario Tanks are blind! <<<
Everyone is recommended to get familiar with M60 - This ought to be a lot of fun.

Heres some helpful tips!
Commanders: You can use from any position keys 1,2,3 to switch between 1st, 2nd and last return and you get text on bottom left of screen showing you the distance.
- Hit 5 to feed distance to ballistic computer.
- Hit 4 to feed battlesight
- To LASE again hit first 4 (Battlesight) and then numpad 0 (Reset)
-
We have huge variety of targets and ammunition. Including HESH (for Buildings) and WP (White phosphorus "Willie Pete" - Smoke!) Lets's use them!

Gunners: Remember to use shift + C to toggle cant correction on when stationary. (If your tank is slightly sideways this will correct shot's to land where you're aiming at. Instead of shots falling to either side.)
- You can leave it on if you don't plan to shoot from move. However if you will fire from move, the swings of cant corrector pendulum will cause your shots to go wildly to left of right so turn it off (MOVING mode)
- V = Stabilization toggle

For everyone it would be most helpful if you will get accustumoned how to switch between different sight views because this tank is littered with different useful options!
- Note F2 is disabled shows only black
- F4 Wide field of view vision block for better situation awarenes
- Alt + F2 = Gunners GPS / Sigth extension to ( F2 takes you to black view of thermal that is disabled on this mission )
- F3 = Auxiliary Sight (or commanders 50 cal) offers slightly wider field of view.
