Tythas posted:First Impressions Yooper when you record the video will you please play this song in the background at some point https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dE7udx4RTj8 ( I will also take any briefing video) Music gets really weird on YouTube. Unless I know, without a doubt, that it's either public domain or I own the rights I can't use it. Otherwise I run the risk of someone filing a claim against me, having my video yanked, and all other sorts of craziness. If I can find one that's close to that that I can buy the rights for I will. TL;DR Trent Reznor, if you're watching this thread, pm me, would love to use some tunes...

koolkevz666 posted:Operation: Maximum War Crimes That plan doesn't put early enough ordnance airborne. Two Su-25s can't carry enough ordnance to kill an MLRS battery and we've seen how horrible inaccurate the SK 60s are against tanks and troops in the open. They also have to get down and dirty, which gives them a chance to hit them with MANPADS and AAA. It also hits the tank column with only eight bombs, again not enough to get the job done.

For your consideration, goons. Lots of escort, lots of strike, and we get to use our Herky Bird.

Our SK60s did well when they weren't fighting dug-in targets. The rockets aren't meant for taking out heavy armor, especially not heavy armor protected by earthworks. On the other hand, MLRS batteries and trucks are soft targets with plenty of ordnance to touch off with a hail of explosives. As long as there's no serious anti-air to take them out, I trust the little planes.

Pretty sure you could build a nuke with like, a high school science class provided you have access to the fissile material. Good luck on that part. Further good luck with schlepping a freefall nuclear bomb into an area defended by modern SAMs and living to tell the tale. And then not getting blacklisted for work from like, literally the entire planet. Or we could not keep trying to ruin these poor civilians' lives even more than they were before <  > If we were working for the dictator it'd be one thing but we're ostensibly on Team Not gently caress Everything Up Even More! Good grief people, can we at least save the Warcrimes: Advanced Edition for the vape nation?Bacarruda posted:For your consideration, goons. Lots of escort, lots of strike, and we get to use our Herky Bird. I still think it might be worth sending the Reaper with the MLRS group. Its optics would be great for making absolutely sure we pasted those things before we find out that surprise, a single launcher survived and our S100 got shot up on the ground by rocket artillery.

First Impressions I hate that we're not utilizing a bunch of our assets but I don't see what they can usefully do. Maybe we should sell them for something that will make the lineup. The other obvious improvement to first impressions is have the SK60s in the air if the MLRS gets into range. Not sure what they'd actually do from there but we may as well have them in the air rather than getting rocketed on the ground. Edit: Maybe send the reaper out to be at the likely launch zone with 60 minutes until the MRLS ETA into their launch zone. It can loiter, and if they start to show up, launch the SK60s and have them try a last ditch run on the MLRS. Cthulhu Dreams fucked around with this message at 02:00 on Apr 22, 2017 |

I kinda want to see the ensuing panic and eventual lessons learned being put into practice after we eat an artillery strike tbh. Not now of course, but disasters like that are always fun to recover from.

I never said the war crimes were for our enemies only did I? On a serious note. Yooper is it possible to vector our strike against the MRLS's in transit? Or will we have to wait till they reach their launch positions? My thought for the MRLS strike was that we hit them while they are moving, I am guessing any serious AA assets would need to be stationary for full effectiveness then again i could be wrong. As for the tank strike mission it depends, if I had time I could go back and modify the plan, divert those two Gripens from opportunity to ground attack. Then again I also want to give the Frogfoots their incendiary bombs for maximum hate and war crime. Too late now but something I will consider in the future.

Just spitballing here, but I bet we could get the Count to invest in a few shiny new 4th generation nuclear plants to help achieve emissions-neutral energy independence for his country... We'll see how things go, I suppose.

Sure, but it ain't infinite. Nuclear power is (or close enough). The Count seems like the kind of guy who's forward thinking enough to plan for Angola's future next century, not just next decade.

I believe Yooper said the artillery begins in transit and takes something like 10 hours to reach a firing position, so unless we completely goof off we should be hitting them in transit.

First Impressions gets my vote because - assuming I'm still in a Hawk - I get to shoot things but minimize my chance of being shot in return.

Yooper posted:We can strike them in transit as long as our birds can get eyeballs on them. Something that Reaper would be very good at, and it's otherwise unassigned. By the way, someone else mentioned this earlier, but radars off and jammers on is kind of a weird combination. You can spot jammers just the same and some systems can even specifically lock onto them.

 MAKING A MK2 OF PLAN BIG PAPA DUE TO RECENT INTELLIGENCECoffeehitler posted:The Tornadoes should be used to knock out the enemy radar along the border. The nice long ranges on the HARMs should let us perform the mission from (relative) safety. Phantoms and their nice big bombs should be used to push back the Eastern push, while providing escort for the aid convoy assisted by the CAS birds. Maybe some of the CAS platforms can be used against the MLRS while the Gripens are playing top cover. MAKING A MK2 OF PLAN BIG PAPA DUE TO RECENT INTELLIGENCEMore SEAD, and pulling potential anti-Runway duty to a second launch for Strike Group 1 Tornadoes. The KEPD has a range of 180 nm, which should let the runway be hit from a safe distance. CoffeeQaddaffi fucked around with this message at 04:04 on Apr 22, 2017 |

This plan includes 0 (zero) cluster munitions because we're apparently something called "ethical mercenaries" whatever the dick that means.

What if this is a smokescreen and he's really plotting something else, though? He may've figured out that people are basing military actions on his tweets as intel, so perhaps he's using it to divert us where he wants us. </conspiracy theory>

First Impressions But with the caveat we keep the SK-60s in reserve with rocket pods to go for the artillery. Should we allow the planners to alter their plans in light of the recent intelligence?

Have you considered turning over Angola to a friendly country and running it as a shadow colony? Not realistic, but it could be fun to conquer Africa bit by bit.
