(I will be editing this later if I can get the BR just to refresh my memory on the round and find out exactly how many spandrels we killed)
The round started off with us vacating the main base immediately at the start of the round. We were trying to avoid the spandrels. Mantak brought us to the lumbermill road and headed north on it. We set up in a ditch to ambush Spandies and support troop movements on hill 159(I believe it was). Our team was delayed at taking 159 as they had to get to Hill 61 first. We sat there for not even two minutes when a spandy flew past us, most likely seeing us dug in on his left. Mantak quickly turned us around to chase after him, and we found the spandrel on his side about 50m south on the road with the driver out of his vehicle. I disposed of the overturned spandrel and then dealt with the driver. About 10 minutes later we got reports that the other spandrel had been eliminated by the tank, I believe As our team was a little slow on the draw, the Militia took the Hilltop Estate as well as Hill 159 before we could even land troops at 159. As troops arrived we pushed forward with an infantry squad that was taking fire. Mantak drove us to the edge of the forest facing 159 and I looked to our left to see what looked like a militia solider, but at the time I was unable to tell exactly if it was hostile or not. We took an RPG to our left armour,tracking us, but leaving our gun still active. Killing the militia soldier, I nearly took out one of our guys as her ran towards the downed hostile. Thankfully we had an organized logistics crew who reacted quickly and dropped us of a repair station. Afterwords we returned to our main-base to rearm.
Our next objective was the Hilltop Estate. mantak had the idea to find an overwatch point to get a view of the estate. Mantak found this perfect mountain peak that allowed me to see right into the estate. I scored a few kills as well as a logistics truck kill. Sadly, I was unable to take out their FOB from the angle we were at.
After a while of raining explosive shells onto the estate, we decided to leave as the looming thought of either mortars or a spandrel taking us out, we vacated the hilltop to rearm as we were going to take part in the assault on the estate. We got there after the main attack had finished and a majority of the estate was empty IIRC. It was nice to see a dedicated combat engineer removing the minefield spread around the estate complex. Thats where mumble came in handy and the led us to a safe overwatch spot while they disposed of the enemy mines. We returned to main to rearm once again as I had the opportunity to destroy a couple more enemy spandrels while we where out there, as well as a good amount of infantry.
Mantak then probably had one of his more dangerous ideas of the round after this. We traveled to the western(B Column) Supply Road to cover their advancement down that road, catch any BRDMs and Spandies off guard. I believe we scored at least one transport truck kill as well as a BRDM kill, and possibly a spandrel(need to see if I can get the BR to confirm that). The not so smart idea Mantak had was "Hey, you think you could kill those field guns?" and my response was of course not the best but, "Yeah, it should be easy!". We ended up disabling one of the field guns, I don't think we killed it, just removed the person manning it. As we backed up so I could see the left most field gun we took a HE-AT shell to our front armour, tracking us and disabling my main cannon. Mantank quickly maneuvered us behind the hill that was giving us a little bit of cover and we both got out of the APC. Mantak then suggested I grab a H-AT kit (which got the CO to give him an earful later) to take out one or more of the field guns. This got me sniped and Mantank shelled. However, our APC sat back, just smoking, alive. Our logistics crew, great as they are, went out to recover our APC, getting it repairs and moving it to a much safer location, allowing us to recover it and put it to further use. This is where me and Mantak got our only deaths the whole round, but managed not to lose our APC.
The round pretty much ended with us dropping artillery on it and moving our whole team onto the fortress. I believe they recaptured Hilltop, but we managed to neutralize fortress, winning the game for as.
I don't think I'll ever be able to have a round like that again. Anyone else have an experience like that on any map?
