BN PlugTheGap v4

by Apocalypse

 

I. SITUATION.

 

The enemy has quickly assembled combat power for an immediate attack across the international boundary.

We are expecting a mechanized infantry battalion (BMP-1) with T-62 tank support to smash through the border crossing of Al Diraj within the next 15 minutes.

 

The enemy is continuing to prepare for follow-on attacks at a staging site that we have identified to the south. This attack has caught us completely by surprise and combat power in the area is extremely limited.

 

A light infantry company from Princess Patricia's Canadian Light Infantry (PPCL) is staged and loaded at the FARP to the north and prepared to move into blocking positions along the border. An Armored Regiment from Lord Strathcona's Horse has just arrived and is prepared to move to the border.

 

II. MISSION.

 

Defeat the enemy Brigade operating in the area by conducting a cross-border counterattack.

 

III. EXECUTION

 

    Tasks
        1. Hold the enemy - prevent a total breakthrough.
        2. If necessary - clear Al Diraj and re-establish the border
        3. Destroy the enemy forces in the marked staging area to prevent further attacks

 

    Fires.
        3x Batteries (18x 155mm) guns are directly supporting
        10x Airstrikes
    
    Aviation
        A flight of AH-64's are en route but may be diverted to other active sectors.

 

IV. SUPPORT

    a. HQ SQDN has 2x Supply Trucks and a Medical Vehicle
    b. There is no FARP in sector

I can put in one ... would this be to your liking:

Also as you know if I put one in that would mean that your Map file is ok but your would have to make a new Plan file ?

Operation Pathfinder
by Apocalypse

 

I. Situation

    Friendly forces are currently set to the east of Imarat, postured to attack to seize key terrain that will enable follow-on forces a swift transition through the area, along Highway 5 and Highway 2.

 

We have detected an enemy mechanized infantry battalion defending the area, with BMP-3, T-90 tanks, and a truck-mounted scout platoon forward.

 

We have detected enemy scouts operating between PL BRONZE and PL PLATINUM, with small teams and ATGM trucks, and we suspect platoon-sized disruption forces to be positioned between PL SILVER and PL BRONZE, with their main defensive force around the town of Chaman.
    
II. Mission:

 

Attack to seize OBJ BULL no later than H+90 minutes to enable follow-on forces freedom of movement.

 

III. Execution

 

    a. Seize OBJ BULL (60)
    b. Preseve Combat Power for follow-on operations (40)

    Fires:
        155mm are allocated as direct support (288 HE/240 SMK)
        12x 227mm Rockets
        5x Air Sorties (15 strikes)
        1x FO

 

IV. Support.     

 

1x Medical Track and 1x Supply vehicle are on hand

 

V. Signal

    Friendly ID: On
    Map Updates: Own Party
    Overhead View: On

    Scripting: Clear OBJ Bull of ALL enemies and occupy with at least 1 friendly for 1.5 minutes.

@Nike-Ajax

 

Any update on the new TS IP address?

 

It works with the same address as always: just verified it now. Apparently my provider was just blowing smoke out an orifice ...

I should be good to go - will be absent next Sunday as I am somewhere far from home

Plan To be there put me in ronins platoon, may be late

 

 

Tighten the string and polish the cans ... 😁👍

You can always join one of the SB MP sessions ?

Sadly I cant be there ... have a good 1

 

More importantly:

I get a mail from the TS provider.

It seems that they annoyingly have to change server Saturday the 22nd - which means that the IP will change:

I will send @Major duck the new IP address so he can post it.

I will be there and can take A41

I am a strong maybe

 

But since I am not certain, I can fill any non-leadership role, but if I make it then I can also take a PLT if needed

The mission is to capture the two villages but not enter them.  Interesting mission/concept.

 

Tankleader.

 

MOUT/FIBUA in SB is difficult and not terribly realistic.

 

More over setting an entire village alight with direct and indirect fire slows the server down to a crawl.

 

Better to play to the strengths rather than the weaknesses of the software.

Kanium Sunday 9th of June - Full Moon, Fuller House by SwissAdmiral

Full Moon, Fuller House

Situation:

After the most recent victory over East German forces, the first West German battalions begin to enter Czechloslavakia, meeting little resistance.

 

This streak of easy victories was promptly broken 2 days ago at Stazów, where Berta company was caught offguard and nearly destroyed by a prepared joint Soviet-Slovak defense.

 

Cäsar and Dora companies have been called on to redeem the failure of Berta company, capturing and holding Stazów and the smaller town of Leczna to the north.

 

Still believeing that the operation will go over with no hiccups, Division command has somewhat overextended themselves, and now a job that would ordinarily be left to two companies has been stretched to a job for one.

 

Fret not, however, as there is the reminants of Berta company standing by on call should you require assistance.
 
Weather & Recon:

"Clear skies and a full moon right now over Stazów tonight, however there is some light rain coming over from Austria at around 7:30 pm."
 
Berta reports the presence of at least 1 company of Soviet T62s, as well as a company of Motostrelki infantry.

 

Due to the limited existence of survivors, we don't have the complete picture, but know there are at least 2 other companies of unknown enemies in the AO.
 
Assets:

3 Platoons of Leo 1A5
2 Platoons of Mech in Marders
2 Platoons of Luchs scout cars to be used in advance of attack
1 Battery of mortars
2 Batteries of offmap arty
2 Medics
2 ARVs
4 Supply trucks
 
Mission:
Capture and hold Leczna and Stazów, expect a counterattack.
 
Extra notes:
Urban Fighting - Neither side should enter the inside of Leczna or Stazów, we don't want to be here all week.
Leo 1A2 - Regrettably, there is no adequate analog for a night vision system, so the 1A5s have been left their thermals. To try to balance, all Leo 1A2s should unfocus their thermals as much as possible. (NUMPAD DIVIDE)
Reinforcements - Attached to trigger 1, will spawn back at the original start point.

 

 

Scenario (To verify that everything works at your end and Map Recce):

 

Full Moon, Fuller House.sce

 

 

 

Hey @Abraxas 

Good mission as usual - but ...

Reference this:

 

 

I would suggest that you remove all the missiles from the OPFOR

 

So just to point out that this bug is sadly still very much alive:

Tonight (reference date and time of posting) we had a T-80U not only ripplefiring Gun launched ATGMs (so 6 missile in the space of 10 seconds), but also had infinite missiles: we counted 20 missiles being fired from one callsign and 15 from another ...

 

Seems the only solution is to remove all gun launched ATGMs from all tanks.

I would be happy give up my slot and play with the Germans in another event instead.

Let me know if you are taking the slot.

 

We never take slots from people that signed up - first come first served, and fairness for all.

No, that would be unfair for you, dont worry about it, there is always a next week for me to participate in

 

We can slot you as a gunner np

Room for one more in the Tanks.

If you just show up we will see if anyone wants a gunner.

ok so wait till last 10 days or so and request renewal.

 

Better to do as Gibson stated and do it about a month before:

Ahem ... Or any Kranium MP or other VU session with human, so unscripted, OPFOR. Or for that matter TGIF sessions.

I have only done it since 2017 but before that Major Duck and the sadly late SwordsmanDK usually did it. 😜😘

I would like to play, but it would be my first time. So not sure if it would be better to take a TC or maybe even Gunner seat? Let me know what you think.
I am fine with playing in English and German.
 

 

Go for gunner would be my advice

Hi Nike-Ajax,

 The original scenario is with Leo2A5. I hope you didn't change the scenario without consulting.

Hi Abraxas

I have not changed a single thing - but maybe didnt look too good on the list ...
