I was wondering if 1st Cav have enrolled in this online campaign?

Blue Flag Online

Hi Flick...I'm unaware of this campaign. Some of the other members may have knowledge of this event. I think it may be something we can look into.

I signed up as a lonewolf, looks very promising but would be even better joining as a team

Nice find must look into this a bit more.

Cheers

Is there any interest to have a session or 2 as a Battalion in the latest campaign

Flew online on the test server today, the mission is structured in such a way that rotorwing operations really can make a difference, I can really recommend everyone that is possible interested in reading the SOP:

I would be up for signing up as a batallion.

I must admit it's good.

Oh yes, it's excellent, deployed a sneaky SA-6 battery yesterday near sochi, moments later it managed to take down enemy SEAD flight due to the fact that I placed it so that it was only facing the sochi airfield from the west, so it was never noticed until it was too late!

I am time limited at the moment but next time you guys are going to be flying Blue Flag post here and I will come if able

Yep Snark, so did sleipner and I, we first refueled gudauta then went from there to carry some BUKs to sochy area, one french guy we were flying with got his ass saved by a SAM site that Sleipner evilly placed. Our buks streamed past him and hit the dude who was on his 6

I fear I may not like that very much, I am fighting for the glorious REDFOR. I've been quite involved with the Beslan assault today, now it's time to reinforce Sochi/Guadata area!

Your fears are quite founded. *pat*pat*pat*

Well, there's one truth to this whole exercise, rotorheads keep the war machine moving!

Yes it's rewarding

Very much so, although I find the lack of teambalance a bit worrying, 18 REDFOR vs 40 BLUFOR right now, it's a shame there is no teamsize limit enforced.

didn't notice, but if so, we'll go to the commie side next mission restart. To make things clear, I'm just testing this concepts with sleip and some french taunters. so please no offence. Wait, see, analyse.

I tried to give it a go on the weekend, but every time I logged in it would not let me choose an aircraft

Anyone else have this issue?

You have to write "red" or "blue" in chat, it will make you part of a coalition for something like 16 days, until they restart the whole thing.

Today was again filled with action, we had little time but managed to mount a buk site, a jtac and a stinger dude, who fired his goodies as soon as we got him out of the bird... I'm starting to get addicted.

This is sounding really interesting. I'll have to try it out when I have time.

It's usually a 2:1 disadvantage for red during most of sunday and monday so far. To be honest, it feels like pissing up a waterfall and I have no idea how we are holding out. We do have a few players that aggressively coordinate both over text and voice chat but heck, the admins refuse to force a playerlimit for either side of 30... If this inbalance continue's they may find red numbers dwindling at the end of the week if the general attitude is anything to go by.

Nef: have you registered as a lonewolf? If I register as a lonewolf, will that mean that I can't then register as the 1st Cav, should the 1st Cav get involved? Should I read the FAQ and find these answers out for myself?

I have not registred anywhere, good idea about reading the FAQ, I need to do that asap

Just played Forward Observer role for the south sector for REDFOR, great fun as well direction MiG-21Bis aircraft on scramble interceptions!
