Capt (Ret) Kardnal

Small movements had to be quick. Smokes weren't much of a saving grace, so we made the most of our bounding fireteams.

Long holds meant long periods of overwatch. Covering another squad's movement was paramount to their survivability.

Back when spacing was a suggestion rather than a certainty of IDF.

Always with the CH-53. An entire platoon of guys into one or two of 'em.

Operation Trebuchet As hosted by GySgt Cole & Sgt Kardnal What is Operation Trebuchet? OPTRE is a mod created for our beloved Arma 3 to infuse elements, weapons, tactics, equipment and vehicles from the Halo universe into a milsim environment. Yes, you may see on the battlefield Pelicans, Hornets, Scorpions, ODSTs, SPNKR launchers, Warthogs, and other, lesser known vehicles. Working alongside @GySgt Cole , we will be bringing the Halo Universe to life using as few mods as possible. My missions will focus on the unconventional, smaller unit tactics. Not to say there will be less people, but that most of these missions will focus on special weapons and tactics. Note that Arma isn't kind with non-standard projectiles, meaning that this will strictly be human-on-human warfare. No aliens. MODS REQUIRED: RAIDER 2.0 (Full Pack) OPTRE ( http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=769440155 ) OPTRE Insurrection + ( http://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=1130645540&searchtext=optre ) And thats it! Set the load order for the OPTRE To be after 3dMP but before 3dMini Briefing: //LOGIN ***** ********* *** WELCOME. . . . "I'll keep this short. We've located a smuggling ring within the Insurrection backchannels. They've acquired a few pieces of strategic UNSC technology that is well worth a full deployment to retrieve. However, this being said, I don't have the time to call down a fleet to retrieve a few pieces of black market, but I sure as hell have the initiative to stop the Innies from getting any hand over fist on our grunts. I'm re-routing a team of ODSTs and their air-wing attachments to your theatre, and I expect nothing short of absolute success. These troopers will stop at nothing to complete their tasking, and you shouldn't push them for any less than that. Signing out." CONNECTION LOST . . . RECEIVING INTEL Innies and locals alike are stirring up a ruckus. The noise we made over their airstrip has put them into high alert across the board. Not to mention the recent left-stage entrance of the UNSC Army, the Insurrectionists are on a verge of going underground again. If they disappear without us learning about their local chain of command, we're doomed. I'm authorizing the use of some heavy gear. I'm calling the Army about their ATGM Warthogs, and dispatching another air unit to your position. You're to bomb a fuel depot under Insurrection control, eliminate a local HVT, whose identity is still being confirmed by ONI, and round this out by searching through the wreckage for anything of use. If the Innies know anything, they'll know to put their data in hardcases. If you locate any hard drives, be sure to bag them and tag them. You have your tasking, Coyote. In Summary, Tasking is as follows: Deploy to island with ATGM Warthogs Move to assault position over the fuel depot Raze compound Prevent escapees Eliminate HVT as designated by ONI, verify his elimination Capture any intel on site Exfiltrate ODST Roster "Coyote" Squad HQ Squad Lead: OPEN Squad Sergeant: OPEN Squad Medic: OPEN Squad JTAC: OPEN Coyote 1 Vehicle Commander: OPEN Vehicle Driver: OPEN Vehicle Gunner: OPEN Coyote 2 Vehicle Commander: OPEN Vehicle Driver: OPEN Vehicle Gunner: OPEN Coyote 3 Sniper: OPEN Spotter: OPEN Coyote 4 Sniper: OPEN Spotter: OPEN Conman 1-1 Pilot: OPEN Pilot: OPEN Radio Freqs: Coyote HQ: 111.1 Coyote Squad Net: 111 Coyote 1: 111.2 Coyote 2: 111.3 Coyote 3: 111.4 Coyote 4: 111.5 Air to Ground: 70 Air net: 70.1 Ares Net: 35 Loadouts: Sorting by mod in the arsenal is helpful for finding all the OPTRE stuff in one place.

When our new XO is surprised we aren't taking him seriously We love you Mako <3

YES

Capt Makowski: Well you tried to bring a suicide bomber home as a pet and it didn't go well, and it's anyone's guess as to why you thought that would end differently.

(Late evening shenanigans) SSgt Bingham has entered the channel. GySgt Cole: Oh hey Company Staff SSgt Bingham: Ha. You're lucky there aren't any lower enlisted here. GySgt Cole: Well, there are, Staff Sergeant Bingham- "user was kicked from the server"

When you start thinkin' about the "good ol days" of ArmA. . . And then you REALLY start thinkin' about the "good" ol days of ArmA: @Cpl Corman @Capt Makowski

When you have common drunken thoughts of resurrecting this damn thread

Thanks Captain. Have a good one, yall. Be safe and drink/eat responsibly, everyone

Same. Pew pew.

When people complain about not having enough fun ops So you make a fun op (Literally mout hell) And then no one shows up, so you cut your losses and drop a SCUD on your hard work Ah well, next time won't be so bad, I think.

Most people are awaiting you to set a time, then the population will come. trust me.

Give us a list of times.
