ARMA2 event 08.01.2013 - Roll Call

[Leimboy]

On our first mission in the new year I want to start off where we left - the Instant action mission from earlier. Hopefully we'll be enough to man all the positions.

Also, the mission Swift Visit have been updated for the island Panthera (which have been updated too). This is a very beatiful map that I would like to revisit again. So if you have the chance - (add and) update Panthera to 2.9 and maybe we'll have a mission there if the first one fails.

Here's some info for the event's mission:

Co09 Instant action - info:

Description:
Intel recovered from a raid in Zargabad has revealed details of an arms for opium deal between a renegade Taki UN officer and an Al Qeada cell based in the Chaman region of Takistan. Delta teams are to be inserted into the area and are to take out the renegade officer and intercept and destroy both the opium and weaponry consignments.

Intel report
The corrupt Taki officer is believed to be in the Chaman district to oversee the transaction, and is intending to use official UN vehicles to deliver the weapons and then smuggle the narcotics across the border and onward to the shores of Europe and the United states.
We can assume the Taki officer and his men wont be best pleased to see us, take no chances! This is a kill mission.

Execution
An 8 man fighting patrol will be inserted by heavy lift chopper with 2 x SOVs for mobility, each SOV is equipped with extra ammunition and a selection of secondary weapons.

Special units:
Field medic:
Has the ability to deploy a mobile spawn point, also although all units can revive and have one self heal option after that is used you will need medical assistance from the medic after being revived.

Engineer:
Has the ability to deal with enemy IED s and to carry out repairs to vehicles in the field.

Thanks everyone for a very enjoyable and successful mission!
We had three tasks (besides the last - to return to base).
Our first task was to rescue a hostage and bring him back to our camp.
The next was to ambush a convoy and our last was to destroy a mobile scud launcher.

Not so many good screens from this event as most of it was of me lost in the wilderness. Some of them showed some of the environment and the team.
Here they are:

Overview of the island where the hostage is held.

Crossing the river and into enemy territory.

These BMPs was part of the convoy. Now disabled

We also disabled a land mine with our truck :icon_cheesygrin:

The team gathered and waiting for evac....that never came.

All in all a very good mission. We quickly ran out of ammo and had to switch to russian made weapons shortly after the first task was done, but they did the job as well. We also had relatively few casualties (except in the land mine incident).

Looking forward to our next event!
