Recon -> Wednesday/Thursday
« on: Nov 01, 2016, 10:29 AM »
Greetings and Happy Belated Halloween NQDY!

I'm looking for 1 or 2 people interested in joining me this Wednesday or Thursday to gather intelligence for this week's Friday/Saturday attempt at Operation Snow Dove.

Ideally we'll start around 6:00pm Server time on Wendesday.
[If the mission isn't ready or I can't find anyone we'll push it to Thursday.]
Mission will be approximately 60 to 90 minutes in duration.

Due to this being a reconnaissance mission I can't bring everyone who might volunteer.
If more than two people volunteer I will draw names from a hat to determine who gets to do it.
If only one person Volunteers it will have to be a two man recon team instead.


Our goals during this Recon mission will include:

#1:Collection of Arial and Vector photographs, Video Footage and General Mission Intel.
>This information will be used by the Squad Lead both before, during, and after the Operation.
>What we get is what we get: If we don't collect the Intel; We'll be walking in blind.

#2:ZERO CONTACT [NOT EVEN RESIDUAL]
If the recon team is spotted at all during our mission we can expect OPFOR to react accordingly, including but not limited to:
Patrol paths may shift, or change entirely.
Additional Infantry or Vehicular forces may be deployed to the area.
Points of interest such as AA, MG placements, Or our Primary & Secondary objectives may shift.
This essentially means:
-If we're spotted you can expect our mission to become a lot harder to achieve.
-If we aren't we get the additional bonus of information moving into the operation.

#3:At least one of us must record and upload the entire experience as proof of our actions during reconnaissance.
[Proof we weren't caught.]

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Reconnaissance Team Callsign will be Spectre for this mission.
Positions on Recon team Currently Available:
Spectre 1: [Team Lead] Viscosity 
Spectre 2: [Spotter] Open             
Spectre 3: [JTAC] Open                 


This is a voluntary mission.
If we do our jobs right we wont be firing a single shot.
Don't Volunteer if you are looking for an engagement. - Just wait till Friday/Saturday

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

If you're interested in joining me on Wednesday Nov. 2nd or Thursday Nov. 3rd; Please reply to this thread by copy pasting the following and filling in the blanks as they relate to you:

                    Name:
             Availability:   [Wednesday.] [Thursday.] OR [Both.]
Can Record Video?:   [Yes] Or [No]


.....




Please Note: I take no responsibility for this idea - I am riffing on an idea previously posted by Duke. Thanks Duke!

Situation
CSAT forces have taken control of the Island Vostok, they are using the town of Vostok to shuttle military supplies across the Island.

Response
Nato departments are planning a preemptive counterattack within the coming week, we are tasked with a pre ops recon mission to gather as much intel as possible.

Challenge
The war over Vostok Islands is approaching very soon, your time to step up is now!!!

Spectre's mission will be postponed until Tomorrow:
Thursday Nov. 3rd.

Cause: Lack of Availability/Interest

If I cannot find at least one person to come with me on this mission I will put in a request that Snow Dove be pushed back to next weekend, and attempt to assemble Spectre for either this coming Sunday, or Next Wednesday instead.

I should be able to do it with you tomorrow night around 7 my time.  For a couple hours anyway.  I am on call so this may change.  I don't know how to record but if someone explains it to me I can try.

Updated orders from Nato Commmand
Recon team has been given area to recon, this will be the first area Nato forces will try to get a foothold onto the Island of Vostok.

Weather conditions
Expected light snow.

Mission time
1 1/2 hours before sunrise

Mission Tasks
1) Gather as much intel as possible without having your presence known.
2) Return to your barge to return intel to Command.




PS
If you don't recover any video footage for proof of success, don't worry. I have logs writing to the server that will tell on you if you're detected.

Amazing! I believe you're EST correct? Which is the same as me; So 7-ish is perfect.
As for recording - im trying to get mine up and going too - so we can try and get something together.
[NVIDIA just did an update to the Gforce Experience so I have to figure out how that all works now, but I think I can cover it.]

Let me know either in this thread or through steam if you get called in.
(My work is the same so I totally understand if life needs to come first.)

Haha, love this!
We'll still try and get a recording in for the records if we can get it to work for either of us.


I'm now even more pumped looking at the area we are going into; It'll be quite the challenge to get good intel!

I am on my way to fix a walkin freezer that is a couple hours away so don't think I will make it.  See  you tomorrow night I guess.  This is from my phone so I am not responsible for mistakes.  Have a good one

Is there not anyone else in this group that will step up for one hour and help Vis?

Was getting ready to update the rest of the series, having second thoughts now  ::)

I think part of it is due to a lack of notice.

There is definite interest; It's just that this week seems to be packed for everyone.
I should've posted this a couple days earlier than I did.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

... I'll be suiting up in the next few minutes.
Hopefully this doesn't turn into a one way trip.
After all; Some Intel is better than no Intel!

Sorry for only now seeing this, would have loved to have helped.  If needed I can always jump on next week to help.  As for tonight (Friday), I'm out for the wife's birthday, but will be on tomorrow.

Sounds good Casper! I appreciate the interest if nothing else!

Again I posted this quite late, so I am at fault for that.

----------------------------------------

I'm still disseminating all of the intel that we got last night as well.
Spectre's report on Vostok will be available no later than 13:00 hours -> Server time.
[Approx. within the next two hours from this post.]

The video footage, and most of the situation report is done.
I'm just going through the Drone's Arial photographs now.
Once those are added a full report will be posted to the Vostok Winter Board under the Coop Missions section.
