Suka - Armor

[QUOTE=SUKA]
I have been having success leading a squad of Vanguards when I am able to put it together. I have talked with others about this and I would like to set up a specialized squad whose purpose would be to spearhead attacks and create new fronts. I have an idea of how I would like the squad set up and I have an idea on some of the people I would like to join it. I want this to be a serious squad and I will be in constant communication with the platoon on IRC.

I would like to legitimize the unit here on the site by getting endorsement from the higher ups within the community. I have lead multiple squads on PC and I am familiar with the maps and tactics needed to be successful in PS2. I would very much like to discuss this unit with you guys and I am wanting to really make this happen. If I can set it up prior to the next patch we will be operational when it happens.

A quick overview of the squad I would like to have 3 engi vanguard with gunners (6/12), the gunners can be a mix between medics and assaults. I would also like to get a small elite group of troopers 1 driving and ammo sundy and 5 in the sundy ready to hop out and take points. The sundy will be a mobile AA battery as well. I believe this unit will be able to create new fronts quickly and efficiently. I am also willing to purchase the people who make the squad a matching camo and insignia as a token showing they are a part of this elite unit.

please let me know because I think this could really be something great that would set the Swarm a part and make us recognized by the other factions.

Hey SUKA,

Sorry it's taken me all day to get back to you. There has been a lot going on lately plus, its my birthday so my phone has been ringing off the hook! I would like to discuss some of the things you've mentioned here but it will have to wait until tomorrow, I hope that you understand. For now, just know that we have been working on some plans to improve our effectiveness as an outfit and a lot of what you said is already in the works. Also, the fact that you are writing this has put you up to the top of the list as a candidate for a squad leader position!

Talk to you tomorrow!

Okay, so I've made a post with details on the plans we have for making changes to our outfit. Please reply there with any thoughts/concerns you may have. Also, not sure if I told you last night (I was a bit drunk, lol) but I've added you to the squad leader candidate list for spec ops. Thanks for stepping up! :)

Ha I actually made a post with some suggestions on what I have experience thus far while running a tank squad. I am really interested in getting together and discussing more ideas with you guys. I played this for little over a year on PC so I have seen a good amount of different tactics and squad makeups.

yeah, I was just reading that thread, actually. A lot of good ideas being sparked off in there! Would like to offer you a position as training instructor for the armored division if you are interested.

I would love to take it on! Just want to be clear that I sometimes have meetings and things I have to do for work in evenings but not very often. the nature of my work comes with throwing parties and things so sometimes I wont be able to be on because some of the events I put together are in the evenings.

Great!

Armored division trainings will be scheduled in advance (try to give at least 1 week notice) and you will have complete control over your training schedule. Once per month is the recommendation (and the absolute minimum), but if you would like to do more than that, you are free to do so. Poll those who are interested in attending your training to determine the best time/date that fits in with their and your schedule. If you need to reschedule, I'm sure people will understand. You may also offer private lessons at your own will to get people qualified and up to speed.

I will need you to work on an outline/itinerary for your training and I recommend streaming your gameplay on twitch.tv while training is in session so your trainees can see from your perspective as you demonstrate certain tasks/tactics. Please have your training outline/itinerary ready for me to review by Monday if possible. Let me know if you have any questions!

I will do my best to have it to you by Monday however this coming week is going to be very hectic for me as I said before I am have business out in Florida for the majority of the week I am flying out early sunday and will be gone until Thursday. Unfortunately even though this is a work related trip it does not eliminate the work I would normally have Monday through Wednesday so essentially I will be behind in work when I get back. please allow me to have this outline to you no later than Monday the 27th and I will also schedule the first training class that week as well.

I hope this is adequate as this is just a busy time, my work life is not normally this messed up.

That's cool... I completely understand. Perhaps we will push back our schedule with actually launching launching spec ops then which would give us more time to get it fine tuned so personally, I have no problem with that! Will discuss this with ropkins and the high council and get back to you.
