Steal the Chopper (day/night)
I have no idea how to approach this mission. Any ideas?
Death Toll Road
This was maybe the fifth time we tried this. All previous attempts failed miserably when we attacked the AA nest. This time we managed to lure them out by a feint attack and ambush them. Then, we moved in and mopped up the remaining sentries in their camp. That was a great mission, and both parts of it were completed flawlessly. I especially loved the extraction chopper lighting up that Vodnik that probably was the AA camp's QRF.

Another wonderful mission! Some great maneuvering which I enjoyed. Any comments on the ambush attempts? Didn't work quite well, but I'm glad we managed to keep our pants on and not engage prematurely. I think that letting them pass and attack them from behind when they reached the town proved itself.
One comment though - We all need to respond to any command issued by the leader. Issuing orders and not hearing replies is very disheartening. This is especially crucial when communicating between separate team. If you notice that your leader has responded to a command net transmission in your local channel - help him and let him know about that. Personally, when leading, I would also like responses even for orders issues to all members in the team. It's just reassuring when you hear the responses and you are sure everybody understands you.
This is how you reply to orders:
Leader - "Osku, move to that rock"
Osku - "Moving to the rock"
This way you know that not only your order was heard, but also understood.

We need more thought on this challenge. I was yielding the disabled T-72 gun and tried to stop the enemy tank platoon (3 or 4 tanks) that crested over the hill to the south-west. I think I'm only able to disable 2 of them before they spot me and blow me up. Any suggestions regarding that challenge and the challenge of facing the attacking infantry? Please no comments on how accurate they are, it's irrelevant to this discussion.

Movement to the objective was better than our first attempt. We managed to spot the Spetsnaz team before anyone spotted us. However, we got flanked and our unit was covered by an elevated position ("The Rock" anyone?). How do you guys suggest we approach this next time?
