We will offer 2 training sessions on the Bergen-Hohne map.
After that you conduct a shooting range exercise...and the one with the best score will win.
Score will be dependend on:
-targets hit
-round fired
-time to engage
There will be penalties f.e. for firing on a target standing, while you should have fired on the move.

You can choose to compete with the following vehicles:

Leopard 1AS
Leopard 1A5
Leopard 2A4
Leopard 2A5DK
Stridsvagn 122
Leopard 2E
M1 Abrahams
M1A1 (HA)
Centauro

Just try them out, and choose what FCS suits you best.

The competition shooting, or what you have to do.

The shooting will take place at the (virtual) range 9, Bergen training area.

You have to destroy
10 main gun tgts
3 coax tgt groups (troops, trucks)= 150 points complete

There will be 3 standing engagements and 2 engagements on the move.

You'll have
11 sabot (kinetic energy) rounds in the ready rack
3 in the stand by rack

Points:
-hit main gun tgt +60points
-hit a coax tgt +10 points

-fastest "time to engage" earns 200 bonus points,
every competitor slower gets -20 points.
(f.e. when you have the 3rd fastest time, you get 160 points)

-fastest time to complete the run (last tgt destroyed) gets 300 points.
You'll only get those points if you destroy ALL targets! If there is one tgt
left, you get 0
Again, every rank slower you lose 30 points.

-each main gun round fired: -10 points
(to reward ammo preservation http://www.steelbeasts.com/sbforums/.../icon_wink.gif )

-stoping to fire during the "move" phases earns you -50 points


So the ideal run will would get 1150 points http://www.steelbeasts.com/sbforums/.../icon_wink.gif
lets see who gets it.
