Nice to have you back!

Too bad I have to work the next two weeks

I really like the Helicopter Transport Pilot scenario by Wibbler, you pickup randomly spawned fire teams, there can be enemy forces at the PZ/LZ and you can customize it to some degree by running it as a multiplayer scenario.

Hello Metallboy.
 
In my eyes you are pretty accurately describing recruiting. You mention that you are in a clan outside Ahoy, you mention inviting people to Discord channels outside Ahoy and you mention inviting players to play your Liberation server while playing on Ahoy. That very much IS recruiting, regardless your intent of harm or no.

We suspected recruitment for a while since Discord names were the only thing shared in text chat on server. We looked into it, but we did not take any action due to only Discord names. In the end got confirmation in the form of a player report of actual recruiting. 
 
AhoyWorld does provide open servers, modded game nights, Forums, TS, Discord. We even give players the option to submit game nights of their own design. We put a lot of effort into making sure we provide extensive services for our player base. This is one of the reasons I find recruiting on our server a low blow.
 
In the case of permanent bans the offence is serious, I see nothing in the appeal to dispute the evidence of recruiting and I do not detect any real remorse, I will let the ban stand. Permanent bans can be appealed in approximately 6 months.

Unfortunately as the fog started to roll in on our first night of rest an alarm was sounded. The enemy are using the cover of darkness to try and over run our defences. Our platoon has been assigned with the defence of the Northern section of the perimeter. The perimeter is lined with spotlights to aid with identifying the enemy. The Firebase also has a mortar squad which can provide HE or flares on predesignated positions.

Act 1 - Prelude to a Nightmare
Part 5
 
           
           
           
            The Altian offensive is still on hold, while the preparations are underway. Although insurgents are constantly operating behind out lines, attacking villages and raiding supply lines, the overall situation on the island somehow feels calmer. The fighting is sparser, and the Altian army is making the most of this calm, putting extra effort into preparations, in order to resume the offensive as fast as possible. The high command is aware that with Templar and his forces headed for Altis, time works in favor of the enemy. Insurgent and Freedom commanders are most definitely aware of this fact and as such they are planning to disrupt our preparations.
            As part of guerilla operations aimed to slow down our efforts, the insurgents set up an anti-aircraft net on approach to one of our airfields. Unfortunately it caused significant difficulties and delays, as well as equipment and aircraft losses. The insurgents also shot down a helicopter carrying colonel Silas Xenotis and took him captive, no doubt willing to extract information from him. Altian forces conducted a difficult rescue operation and ultimately managed to locate and safely recover the colonel, as well as neutralize the bulk of enemy AA net threatening our aircraft. Unfortunately during the operation substantial amount of Altian equipment fell into insurgent hands.
            The tensions between Russia and USA are still high and there is no sign of them improving. The situation on Altis is constantly brought up by Russian media, who aim to throw blame for anything they can onto Altians or Americans. With the Black Sea Fleet mobilizing all of its major vessels and the constant exchange of ever more ridiculous accusations between Russia and USA, it seems the situation abroad is bound to become as bad as situation on Altis. One can only pray it doesn't become any worse.
            The Altian clock has advanced and now shows 2 minutes to midnight...
 
 
 
 
           
 
 

 
The Assets
Player faction: Altian military (with British support)
Player slots: 32
- PLATCO - 4 man command element
- 3 Infantry Squads - Alpha, Bravo, Charlie - 8-man each (4-man fireteam, 3-man maneuver team + engineer - effectively two 4-man fireteams)
- Vortex - Pilot and Co-pilot - in this mission the role of Vortex will be fulfilled by British pilots. Due to equipment and aircraft losses sustained as a result of enemy AA net and recent operations of Altian air force their help is welcomed by the Altian military.
- Shadow - 2-man sniper recon team (sniper and spotter)
 
- Wildcat and Merlin helicopters
 
- 1x M117
- Various wheeled transport vehicles
 
The mission
Yesterday morning Freedom and insurgent forces launched a suprise attack from the insurgent controlled territory. They have gained some ground and captured an industrial complex, which they are now holding. The attack came as a complete shock as untill now the enemy was focusing on preparing defenses and partisan operations, so for them to go on the offensive was a complete shock. We are not yet sure what this change of stance means - worst case scenario is that Templar's forces have already arrived, in which case the situation is looking more grim than we anticipated. The objective of the mission is to retake the complex and search the area for enemy isntallations. We have also received vague reports about Freedom outpost located nearby, clearing it would offer an opportunity to secure intel as well as reduce effectiveness of enemy operations in the region.

Lovin' this! Should be the last big operation on my current PC, aka Muckduck's old PC. She will be retiring hopefully next week. She's had a good run at an age of nearly 10 years.

I'd like to thank you all for my award for the worst driver. I must say, it is a great achievement to win this award two years running, and a showcase that my driving skills have yet to improve.
 
I would like to apologies to Alpha, for having to withstand the effects of my poor driving ability on that memorable night in Livonia that I don't speak about. It is not easy to be the worst driver, it takes a great amount of concentration and incoherence, and years of practice with no improvement. 
 
I look forward to crashing more vehicles in 2020.

This is becoming kind of really addicting. Had a good time on the last missions and looking forward to this and following ones. I enjoyed driving the 'heavy element' MRAP last time and would love some good infantry/vehicle combined ops with the M113 again. 
 
Very good job on that storyline Janxol.

Haven't played in AW for couple of years already. Might aswell be a time to rejoin! Looking forwards for this weekend's game.

I'll happily be your PltCo medic again!

Hey everyone, Its been a long 2 years but im back. IGN is Eastwood but im sure i used a different name 2 years ago, just cant remember (new computer). I started to play a few years ago, but was diagnosed with cancer, so that put a hold on gaming for a while. now im back ready to play and have fun! 
 
Steam Name: Vapid_B (friend code: 99183717)
 
Lets play!

Thanks for the request @BruceLee
 
The Public Moderation team has decided to implement the Paramilitary gear into the arsenal, in a request for guerrilla apparel. We aren't adding the guerirllia apparel itself, as it may cause some identification issues, especially in some side missions.
 
I hope you are happy with this compromise
 
 

Welcome back!
 
Look forward to seeing you around.

im more scared of a 5 man team ambush on the road then treating the wounded for 30 mins type of scenario

@Noah_Hero Thanks, we have been working with the new medical system and getting to grips with it since it's release. I've used Ace a lot in the past and have been considering the effects it will have on any mission before setting this poll. The goal is for the missions to be fun and inclusive for the whole community.
 
@SCHUBZ From the outside adding Ace can seem daunting but I assure you that it is a very useful and rewarding mod.
The medical is obviously the biggest change from the outside and it will take some adjustment from the Zeus and the players but it is my aim to keep the missions fun and casual while also giving players the added depth and functionality that Ace adds.
 
If we do adopt Ace, as the current poll results would be leaning towards, we would look to making sure everyone had an opportunity to get some training in using the ace functionality, if they want/need it.
 
If you guys have any questions or reservations please let me know.
 
 

Thank you for your request @gustis40g , and an apology that it has taken this long to get back to you.
 
After reviewing this request with the Public Moderation team, we have decided to implement the Xian at the AAC airfield FOB, in replacement for the pawnee that currently spawns there. WIth this, the Xian will still have some rarity, as the FOB is required, but otherwise it will be much more common, as your requests insists. The xian that will spawn at AAC will be unarmed, in an attempt to mitigate Uncalled CAS.
