23MAR14
First official mission for Operation Steal Panther or something... don't really care. Please refer to FTX 9MAR14 which is a couple posts up. Landed at the same LZ and Haymaker 4 ( my MG squad ) went to the same DAMN hill that we occupied during the FTX and had the same results too, 0 kills/0 shots fired. I came to the conclusion during my hour and forty-five minutes of starring at shrubs, that the leadership has absolutely zero idea on how to utilize his MG assets. We are consistently placed on a hill and forgotten about every time. Any of you who play the Combat Mission games can more than likely back me up on this. I find MG teams to be one of the best assets in CM, they have solid firepower with all the benefits of being infantry ( movement, concealment, etc...). To just leave that asset on a hill doing nothing makes your infantry work twice as hard to accomplish their goals and I cant imagine any grunt saying no too having a 240 helping his team out.
Sorry about the rant but this unit is turning into a waste of my time.
PS. They are pushing the servers to 100 ( don't think they hit that number yet but they are getting close) capacity which sounds cool but just means more hurry up and wait.
