Had a blast last night. Great job with CO, Colebrook.

Just a look at how the mission went last night - I thought Colebrook did a great job selecting a course of action, and we were able to move rapidly and isolate objectives. Lumi did a great job spotting enemy forces and keeping his recon out front.

This brings smile to my face. It was indeed success of commander Colebrooks very good plan.

Another thing is that I noticed while listening. M1 platoon did have very good team work. It was almost if you were truly enjoying playing it guys.

I cant say same from Leos...  it sounded like Jhay was completely alone there, even under great stress perhaps.

It was great to finally have smaller mission like this. I would not mind if it would get a little smaller too. That there would be 1,5 vehicles per player.

4 scouts, without map updates is a little bit of challenge indeed. But then again, with map updates those would be near useless.

One variation that we could consider could be Map updates, but blind tanks. In that, if tank lazes enemy, it will pop to map.

Alternatively, some-kind of way to mark enemy better. Could be good. Id need to learn good ways to mark enemies. As I feel that reference points are hard to see from map (although precise... just from 5000 meters...  I cannot give precise locations either.)
