The markers arent showing up. Make sure you switch the chat mode to side channel or global before marking them.

Hope it didnt take you too long to scout the target.

[Hottentot]

Well, darn. Good thing then I took that screenshot. I'll fix them next time I'll be around.

[Dowly]

Just my luck.

The target's markers should be fixed now so they show up for everyone.

[Dowly]

Da, markers are showing. Were you detected? I picked up a KA50 circling the target
when I was flying bombing runs on the side mission (no, I couldnt find the guy ).

Anyways, I'm off for a few days. Nature, peace and quiet, and assloads of beer awaits.

By a more thorough analysis that's Raptor1(middle), Schroeder(right) and Arclight.(left)

I have to say last night was a succes, good communication great CAS by the Hind (Oberon&Dowly) and taking steps in tackling the Main Objective

No one shot at me at the very least and the troops didn't behave oddly, so I guess I wasn't detected. I've been intentionally trying to keep low profile on these lone trips and save the shooting for the times when the rest of the crew is present (especially seeing they have that stupid tower in there again).

I'll see if I can find time before tonight to scout the Northern side of the town too. No promises, but on the other hand I don't think there is too much stuff in there anyway.

You miserable surrender monkey!

[Schroeder]

Yesterday was pretty good.
Good communication and we actually worked like a unit.
No friendly fire incidents and we got the target with minimal own casualties (to which I proudly contributed....to the casualties of course, not to achieving the target...).

[Hottentot]

Despite of there not being many of us yesterday, I'd say it went well. Too bad I had to leave right as we were attacking the target, but at least we took out the armor before that. Not to mention our epic base defending.

Screenies.


Raptor breakdancing with F-35. Never knew you could fly those things backwards.




Lasing the radio tower from hidey place.




That takes care of that problem.




Just about the best view I could hope for.




There is still the matter of this Tunguska harassing Raptor in his jet, though. So it gets laser treatment.




The infantry in the village went pretty much haywire right after this screenshot was taken. A few of them ran right past me while trying to figure out who the heck is ruining their toys. Good thing they didn't see anything odd in hearing a man-shaped bush laughing.




And there goes their precious T-72.




After there was no more armor to take out, I started playing hide and seek with the infantry in the forest. Or perhaps rather "hide and peek".




Back at the base the army was out of parachutes again, so instead here is yours truly playing aerial pizza delivery service while waiting for them to issue me a new one.

Haha...Raptor1 got killed in that one Screenie.

Made me smirk just a bit.

[Hottentot]

Preliminary intel for today:



The target is heavy with infantry, but not so much armor. They patrol mostly the outskirts of the town, but there is one marked AT-patrol to the West. Only two guys, but their RPG might still be a problem.

I haven't at least yet found a place to cover the whole area properly, but I can handle lots of space to the East from Overlook position 1 and quite a lot of space to the North from Overlook position 2. I can lase the tower from both lasing positions, but would get a better look at the armor after that from the one in the West. If they don't move much, that is. It's a difficult area to observe due to being in the middle of low slopes. Though I reckon an armored vehicle could wreak havoc to it from the road approaching from the East.

No AA or even proper tanks spotted so far. This might be ideal opportunity to use the CAS after the BMPs and the HMG next to the tower are handled?

What mods are you guys using??

Russki Su-34s don't like insane choppers flying around. Who would've known?

None at the moment, though if you don't have the Army of the Czech Republic DLC you'll need to install the corresponding compatibility patch.

Someone who saw it either from the cockpit or the laser designator?

Oh, right...

Maybe you shouldn't fly so erratically and stay low off the radar.
