Dogs Of War Vu

MISSION Summary:
Somewhere in Sweden...

Our weakly defended front here has received a strong blow from the enemies and the defenses at MALMBY couldn't hold. The Mech Coy (-) there took heavy casualties and started withdrawing an hour ago. The enemy force attacking them was equipped with BMP-3s. The remaining units are moving through your positions in a few minutes and will pass some info about the enemy if they can!

Excerpts of the battalion commander's (HAVOC 6) orders for...BLUEFOR (D.O.W.)

1) SITUATION:

a) Enemy:
         BMP-3s confirmed.
         Other unknown

b) Own:
              Strv 122 x 7
              CV9040B x 3

c) Attachments and detachments:
              Your group has 2 platoons of 4 M1064A3 120mm mortars each for support (HE, SMOKE). A/RL has1 M113AS4, 1 M113 medic, 1 Biber, and 1 HEMTT supply.

2) MISSION:

CO/QJ, XO/QJ, and A/QJ (YOU!) will conduct a counterattack in this sector along ROUTE CHARLIE, clear the route and push the enemy from MALMBY and take and HOLD the bridges at C10. After the bridges are secured we can move in more homeguard forces to stabilize this front and enable the reuniting of you with the rest of the company before redeployment to a more important sector.

Note:
The delaying unit laid a hasty minefield at MALMBY but they reported enemies breaching the minefield just before the visual was lost to the area. So the minefield is most likely breached...

3) EXECUTION:

To follow

Can request a recovery asset with plough as bieber was not used.
And request that logistics has a M113 like last mission so I can do my own security. I used CO/H at it worked perfect for me 👍

OK, will make those changes.

What if we have to cross water this time?  :-*

Change made, can add Biber again if needed.

Could have it as a spawn veh using a trigger then take control 👌

Any chance of having double F8 view so medics vehicles can be driven when they get stuck on a marching order ?

How about a "house rule". That view is only to be used for the medic and dismounted infantry.

What do you think?

Sounds good to me.

So to recap:

M113 for supply command with dismounts
Recovery asset with plough in place of Biber
Biber moved to spawn asset on a trigger
And double F8 view for medic
And fluffy dice for the supply trucks👍

Lol. That sounds about right. Do not forget the fuzzy dice.

Wow congrats guys!

While my daughter was very cute in her Christmas play and even managed to not forget any of her lines I am sure I would have had more fun with y'all!

You better hope your wife doesn't read this  :-X

It was a good mission. We worked well. Having people versed in how things work is a great advantage and increases the immersion and fun.

It was an enjoyable mission. Having a person on nearly each vehicle makes  a huge difference in the immersion factor. I look forward to playing next week.

I agree Lusik about unit numbers.

SB works best when each vehicle is manned. Also there is a limit to number of players as SB tends to have issues at time when there are large numbers of players connected over the internet. Especially when the players are all over the world.

I look forward to many more missions of this size.

Computer enemy easy.

If you script and design a mission properly then the enemy can be challenging. Our focus is not only on shooting tanks but good communication and movement.
