That was some good fun. First go with ACRE too, so that was pretty cool. The positional audio is my favorite part.
Spring Cleaning (ALPHA 1 FTL): The Russians were in Delores, and Draakon wanted them gone. The approach was simple enough, darkness provided ample cover for our advance to a good overwatch position on the NE side of town. From our staging point, we spotted a lone Vodnik and several scattered footmobiles on patrol. We engaged and destroyed all contacts within range as we moved in to town. As we finished securing the NE section of town, Pr3sario made mention of the Vodnik making a return trip to our position, before losing track of it. Mere moments later it was on top of Draakon's position. A violent melee occurred, rockets were shot, and our glorious leader was found dead. After briefly getting my shit together, I took command and used bounding elements to secure the two main crossings of the river. We pushed and cleared south, with sporadic gunfire barring our path. Soon enough, the town was declared sufficiently empty and victory for the Party secured.
Random Engagements (BLU ALPHA 2 FTL): We split Alpha into two elements, using the treeline on the East side of town and some berms for cover. My fireteam followed the Southern road, and A1 went North. SuperU directed some nice fireteam bounding as we went, providing cover and clearing buildings that offered resistance. After providing cover for A1 to breach a building on the North side of town, my team rounded a corner in the road. I had split my team in two to better cover the road, so I was also taking point in a bounding maneuver. This marks the first time Draakon shot me, I believe. After suppressing my attacker and getting me on my feat, my team surrounded the building and cleared the first floor without much guff. The second floor proved more troublesome. You can see where we attempted to force Pr3sario out with grenades. Meanwhile, Draakon was doing some sneaky flanking, marking the second time Draakon shot me in one round.
Oily Recommended (ALPHA 2(?) AR): After a very smooth ass landing and tour by Draakon, our team approached the hostages' location from the South. When in view of the building, we immediately started taking fire from the first floor, second floor, and a small fireteam with a technical outside. In an impressive and unusual display of Party Competency Alpha managed to suppress all visible contacts with supreme prejudice. After some close calls breaching the building, the hostages were secured. Great success.
HOSTages (INDFOR CO): We had the money, the repairman, and there was nothing SuperU could do to stop me from blowing it all on cigarettes. Issus is a chatty hostage.
