ChuikovChambered Posted March 31, 2009 Share Posted March 31, 2009 So far, Red's in the lead. I have to ask: Was Greevil driving that destroyed fuel truck? :???:And andy, feel free to join us on our campaign. If you still have newb questions, just know that both sides will most likely have one or more newb friendly players who can help. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RogueSnake79 Posted March 31, 2009 Share Posted March 31, 2009 Tac, you did notice that red did not have a vehicle in obj. Northrock at mission end? You said only AFV's could hold one. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tacbat Posted March 31, 2009 Author Share Posted March 31, 2009 This is from the word doc for Op Variable:In order to successfully secure an objective, a combat ground unit must be inside the objective area at mission end. Support units and helicopters cannot hold objectives. Infantry can hold an objective. Just remember the precedence of tanks/IFV's/infantry. One tank wins over all enemy IFV's and inf, IFV's win over all enemy inf. The Talon Arms bonus objective can only be secured by an AFV as per the mission briefing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tacbat Posted March 31, 2009 Author Share Posted March 31, 2009 GheyRTFM Noob.Isn't that arse about face?It is. However, since SB is a tank sim, I wanted to over emphasize the importance of the tanks so there will be more of them in the battle and less IFV/Infantry. I think it's more enjoyable to play a tank then an IFV, and most new players want a tank, so this way everyone should be happy.IRL, every other arm of the service is a supporting arm to the infantry. But there's not much speed and excitment watching an infantry section crawl accross the battlefield only to be gunned down by a tank they should have killed with their anti-tank weapon. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
12Alfa Posted March 31, 2009 Share Posted March 31, 2009 IRL, every other arm of the service is a supporting arm to the infantry. .Well generally that's the way we do it. However the combat team can either be op/Tac con to either the armoured or infantry. So it could be that all are under/work for the armoured Sqn.Current ops now are however normally Op con to the Inf. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators Volcano Posted April 4, 2009 Moderators Share Posted April 4, 2009 Awesome fun this week. Looking forward to the next one. Hopefully at least the OBJ in the north is neutral still given our ending disposition. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators Volcano Posted April 5, 2009 Moderators Share Posted April 5, 2009 Ok, great. I guess that the hope that the OBJ in the north would still be neutral was just wishful thinking. No matter. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Itkovian Posted April 6, 2009 Share Posted April 6, 2009 Any chance someone might be able to upload the actual AAR files for these two? I loved poring over the CS AARs, and these look like they'd be great viewing. I'd love to join in again, but so far my schedule doesn't allow for much. Maybe this friday. Maybe. Red is german hardware and blue is american, correct? Anyway, I'd appreciate it if someone could put up the AAR files. Thank you.

Tacbat Posted April 6, 2009 Author Share Posted April 6, 2009 If you want to PM me your e-mail, I'll send them to you.Yes, Red started with Leopard 2A4's and CV90's, and Blue with M1's and M2's. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrDevice Posted April 6, 2009 Share Posted April 6, 2009 Will a written AAR for Battle 2 be posted to this thread as it was for Battle 1 earlier in this thread? Or is that an OPSEC issue for the teams? Looks like Battle 2 was a hard fight for a small patch of ground. I'm interested to see how each side approached their face-off. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators Volcano Posted April 7, 2009 Moderators Share Posted April 7, 2009 Well, let it be known that the M1s on BLUE will be protected. So no one needs to join BLUE thinking that they will snatch up one of the few M1 platoons to take them off to be killed. They have mostly been assigned out already. Just be willing to take something else. Of course RED has plenty of crap they can afford to piss away. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tacbat Posted April 9, 2009 Author Share Posted April 9, 2009 Here’s a summary of mission 2: We had 14 players participate in part 2. Red: Sean (CO), Fidel, JHay, Chuikov, Sgt Slacker, Gopher, Smitty and Wombat Blue: Volcano (CO), Tacbat, Mog, Trackpad, Gary Owen, and Greevil Both sides started in their respective deployment zones based on their progress from mission 1. Both of the middle objectives were in neutral territory, so either side could capture them. (Pic 1) In the north, Blue moved into the Green Valley and deployed troops early, while reinforcements were brought up from the rear. There was little movement in the center, while in the south, both sides advanced cautiously towards each other. (Pic 2) The battle in the north was intense, but in the end Blue's M2's were outgunned by Red's CV90's. Nearly all of Blue's Mech Inf was lost in the north. There were sporadic engagements in the center, but it remained relatively quiet throughout. In the south, Blue tried to withstand a tide of Red infantry, but had to withdraw under pressure. Red attempted to swim ASLAV-25's towards the Talon Arms facility to capture it, but were engaged and destroyed by ATGM's from a Blue M2. (Pic 3) In the end, Red captured the center two objectives, and earned the points for them. Blue was pushed back approximately two kilometers. Blue lost 26 vehicles, and Red lost 22. (Pic 4) Blue did not purchase a fuel truck for mission 2, so they will have to do so for mission 3. Thanks again to Sean and Volcano for taking the CO roles. Remember, you can join the fight anytime you can make it. Mission 3 will be set to go on 10 April at the regular TGIF time. See you there! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChuikovChambered Posted April 11, 2009 Share Posted April 11, 2009 Not if we kill you first. :men_ani:Given the network problems we had, would it be fair if we had at least 1 more mission after this one? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RogueSnake79 Posted April 11, 2009 Share Posted April 11, 2009 Well, the lag kinda spoiled the fun a little in that one. A lot for some. Suppose it's got to happen once in a while.Can't wait for the next one Tac!By the way, new players that show up to participate will be forced to join the team with the least players.We had a lot of new players, and too many went blue that time. Next time we will even it up better. I suppose the lag saved the campaign in a way. It would have been unfair for red, being so out numbered. And lag prevented the major battle from taking place. Which would have caused the imbalance to take center stage. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
