DOW members, by invite, or request in advance prior to mission.

Our goal is to have the DOW session more immersive and realistic.

Mission end problem is or should be fixed now to deal with different tactics of Blue force commander.

[Cougar11]

Looking for a CO to step up. Hopefully Apocalypse will be able to be there to implement his original plan/new plan at the big wig, but in the event he is not able to, who would be able to step up?

For time, and ease of mission, the plan can be created prior, and the mission given to them anytime between now, and hour before game start. Rules for this are that the CO will not play the mission prior to game time, and only look in 3D view to get an idea of the battle space.

I was set up perfectly for some flanking shots when PZAP!  The mission was over.  Ready to give hell again

[Cougar11]

So you say your ready to see the Russian Horde? Game time in 24 hours 40 mins. 

[RedWardancer]

Just in case nobody shows up or comes late.  If the mission is the same as it was, I can plan it out now.  If not, I'll need the new file and soon.

Cant join tonight,work

[RedWardancer]

Excellent job by everyone in this one.  Even those who operated infantry without me did well 

Seems like only the M1A2 SEPs have the thermals to find those well hidden FO units.  Next time I see them from 5K out, I'm going to engage instead of leaving it up to dismounts to find them. 

Balance?  Well, we were not issued any supply, fuel, medics, MRVs or repair units so I say this was good enough.  Had there been a major push by the enemy both north and south, we might have had some trouble.

Great job, Dog-faces!

I liked this mission. And thanks for being lazy gunner I took some time to take few screenshots too. And well not only gunner but driver at the end as well





Hmm whats this hidden in woods?


On our south there seemed to be lot of fun action!


Omg... such deep bank on small stream of water


This is weird one. I saw right one burning but my commander didn't saw it burning.


And I had some fun on drivers place too, thought as you can see this time on leo.



Oh well... some glory for SEP too, not to forget star of game



And better not to forget our glorious scouts either that did great work!
