Hope everyone will be able to pick up some nice dosh on the triple SC the day before, we're approaching 30+ people in the mumble server at once, end goal I think would be a platoon. As we get more people in the same channel, please make sure to observe some basic rules.
Mumble Etiquette:
- If you hear someone else talking as you are about to talk, stop, due to the time-delay its inevitable that people will step on each other, just stopping when you hear someone else start is good manners and one person can yield to the other
- Don't bind your push to talk key to something that can stick
- I don't care how you died, be it friendly fire (unless its a repeated griefer) or the most BS gun in the game, don't complain about it. A call of X is down or if you saw a large group coming in, this is fine.
- Use cardinal directions or other points of reference when making calls
- Learn2Map, if a call is made about a particular Hex that the waypoint is not on, someone should not have to explain where it is. After a few days you should know where things are or at the very least how to find them, personal waypoints are your friend
- Don't be a dick (should be rule #1), don't start arguing with someone in the channel when we're in a firefight
With that down, time for ops planning....with the increased number of people and the triple SC dosh day, it will be time to segment some roles out.
We will be running 4 squads
Alpha Squad (Public)
- Infantry, 1 Bus Driver (Or Gal Pilot) + Grunts, after each successful cap, rally on your bus to move out
Beta Squad (Public)
- Infantry, 1 Bus Driver (Or Gal Pilot) + Grunts, after each successful cap, rally on your bus to move out
Charlie Squad (Private)
- Armor + Gunners
- Magriders + Lightnings
- Gunners should also be able to pull their own tricked out tanks or lightnings, but really anything works
Delta Squad (Private)
- Aircraft
- Scythes + Libs
- All lib gunners should be able to pull air as well
If you are in the latter two squads, you have one job, pull air or armor and bring it with the group, if for some reason both of your timers are up (Mag+lightning) or (Scythe+Lib), ground pound with the infantry until they are up.
I don't mean for this to be super strict roles, at some points Charlie or Delta might be asked to 'dismount' some or all of the squad, but in general they should be sticking to their roles.
For what we would generally like to do, Id like to stick to one of the 'off' continents if possible.
Festivities begin at 6:30pm CST, bring beer
