[AAR] Just luck
Posted: 2009-10-02 21:46
a few weeks ago i played operation archer with some of my friends. We were still pinned down at main base, but we got luck. A pilot had hidden a huey for i think 5 minutes outside the base, in a quite area. He came back to pick up some troops, our squad jumped as first in the huey, he flew away directly leaving 3 man of my squad behind (Including medic and grenadier :cry 
. He flew to the castle (weird we said some other coördinates). When we landed at the castle courtyard we didn't took any fire. We searched for some taliban, they werent there, but there was a hideout and a rally point. We destroyed them with our knife and thermite grenades. But when we were heading downstairs we heard a taliban screaming in arabic. We took some tactical positions, (support gunner, officer and rifleman). And yes there they came, some riflemans, rpg's aa-soldiers and a support gunner, about 9 people. We toggled to burst and fired on them, no one had survived it, but the other insurgents were falling back to the castle. Our squadleader called for evacuation, we had to hold our perimiter for 2 minutes. The scouts were already climbing on the castle with their ropes, we shot the most of them down. We couldn't hold the castle with 3 men. And it became even worser, our support gunner got hit (now i realise how many luck we got at the moment). So we lost the most of our firepower. The insurgents were now shooting their rpg's on our position, the officer almost got killed but was still able to pop orange smoke. When the huey came to us he almost got hit by a rpg. I jumped into the huey, but unfortunatly the officer got a fatal hit in his chest when running to the huey 
. We jumped in the huey, when we flew away a aa-misile hit the top of the tower. We almost got killed but we had luck. Our act in the batle wasn't very big but we distacted the most of the taliban, so we could destroy 4 caches.
This all happened at the Chicago Insurgency server, it was one of my first battles in project reality at operation archer.
