TANK COMPANY IN ATTACK

How to do the channel commander setup

https://goo.gl/hvNVRA

For training basic tank coy drills in open terrain, that is surrounded by woods. Enemy included, with good equipment, but actions are somewhat target-like to force the blue coy to concentrate fires, communicate in order to minimize casualties... etc. Enemy, starting locations and plans are random, but troop composition remains the same.

Blue has a Leopard 2A5DK company with attached CV90-35 DK platoon and artillery support.

Difficulty: easy

ENEMY:

An enemy mechanized battalion is attacking along HIGHWAY 7 (HW7). Their mission is to secure the western flank for an upcoming brigade's attack along the HW7. Our last recce flight just spotted the enemy recon element moving from CHURCHILL to CURLYLAKE direction, as well as a company sized mechanized force moving into positions south of LILTOWN. The enemy has mainly BMP and modern T-72 equipment, along with ATGMs.

OWN:

Our Tank Company is moving in column to attack the enemy. A friendly AT-platoon has secured the northern flank 2km west from HW7.

MISSION:

1st Tank Company (+) will ATTACK along the marked open terrain (north boundary = Roundlake-Twinsnake swamp-Liltown, south boundary = Fishybay-Backwood swamp-Hairyhole lake), DESTROY enemies in the way, TAKE the narrow woods north of CHURCHILL (marked on map as OBJ) and HOLD HW 7 UNDER SURVEILLANCE.

SUPPORT:

We have the support of an SPA battery (6 tubes in 2 platoons). We have reports that the enemy indirect assetts have fallen behind their attack...

TRIGGERS:

-You can end the mission manually by using TRIGGER 10 at any point...

NOTES:

1) The enemy is completely random in its deployment and movements, though expect the enemy intel given above to be "on target"

2) Mission will end if

a) mission is accomplished and enemy destroyed or

b) if casualties rise over 50%

c) manual trigger is used

3) FRIENDLY ID is ON!

-Pressing left shift (default key) and pointing at any friendly unit you will see his callsign displayed

Plz Note:

For the guest and regulars attending last week. Our emphasis this time is on getting most stuff setup ahead of time.

Special focus on:

- Teamspeak channels

- Channel CMD

How to do the channel commander setup

https://goo.gl/hvNVRA

- Getting Things fired up quickly (more gameplay :luxhello:)

Teamspeak used will be UK armor teamspeak. Adress will be in the briefing post also. We will be on 30minutes prior to sort out issues with TS if any should arise.

Grenny, I will send you a link to the .sce file in my Dropbox so you can make the plan ahead of time. Or PM me your email address and I will send it by that means.

Ok.

if possible I'll edit the blue side IOT to include written an graphic OP-plan in the sce...this should speed up things too.

Great. PM sent with link to the .sce file. :clin:

Btw, we will be using the Danish C/S system. Major Duck will explain during the mission briefing. :clin:

I'll take either a tank in Tjay's platoon or 3rd

I guess if we get enough German players we could have:

1st English

2nd Danish

3rd German

We hope for 1,5 danish platoon if all show up but if the germans can man a hole platoon 2 of ours will either move up to tj or be gunners and multi crew

i will put you with Tjay for the time being

Bump

Servus,

this time without me, I have night shift.

Cheers

D u k e

I'll be there!

Been having a wonderful time in every event I've been in so far

Everybody is welcome

We miss someone to handle support (artillery/Mortars)

There are 4 more Tank slots open

And KT could use some more INF Squad Commanders

If there comes more then that, the Danes will just multi crew in second platoon so we have plenty room for more guys.

So if you come 3-4 guys you could get a hole platoon

Cu on sunday

Ps please prepare your TS settings if you havent played with us before

Follow this guide:

https://goo.gl/hvNVRA

If you don't know how we will be on the TS Server ½ hour before the session to help

I'll take either a tank in Tjay's platoon or 3rd

I guess if we get enough German players we could have:

1st English

2nd Danish

3rd German

If we don't have a volunteer to run the support section by Sunday, I will take that and you can have 1Plt. :clin:
