So a couple of things happened.

1) My eyes/brain-to-hands pipeline isn't optimized yet for SBP. I saw what was happening, I knew what I had to do, but a lack of vehicle familiarization paired and the missing muscle memory made me rather ineffective. I should do this more often, especially in an MP setting. But from what I can find there isn't much around for this niche product. So this is something I will need to work on, any suggestions? :-)

2) Hat of to whoever created this scenario. All the tanks were well hidden  and they really did a sneeki breeki on us (at some part I could turn my turret 180 degrees and aim behind me via the battlesight because there was some thank we casually passed by on our way into the AO! ), essentially rinsing us.

I really would've given it another shot. But after Rinix called it, it was over. :-(

I'm sorry that we didn't give the mission another try. :( Here's my screenshots: https://imgur.com/a/EDWYlnH

The plan

The terrain causes me to be ambushed and lose tanks, this will become a pattern

Minefield is detected, but it is no obstacle

I run in circles around a tank

We trade blows, as the reserve tanks move up

Ramming is ineffective, all of our vehicles are immobilized or destroyed, and I end the mission
