Voting By The Numbers with the advisory that if the strike on the S-300 fails the remaining flights should be instructed not to enter its engagement radius (if known). If we can't find it at all, I think "proceed with caution, run away if necessary" should be the plan. I don't want us to feed our entire force to one unit, that would be embarrassing.

I'll refrain from voting for now, since I need to refresh my memory. That Kickstarter is certainly... uh... something. As other goons have said, it seems like we dodged a bullet! And I'm probably sounding like a broken record at this point but I liked the interview snippet posted earlier.

I'm also shocked their kickstarter doesn't include lifesized undressable Touhou anime statues Hexenritter fucked around with this message at 16:31 on Apr 25, 2017 |

As other goons have said, it seems like we dodged a bullet! Agreed! If you guys ever want to get creative, go for it. Backstory, paint jobs, ringtones, gently caress I don't care. As long as you're not steering the narrative, go wild. I'm going to have this guy, http://www.clavework-graphics.co.uk/pricing/master_pricing_001.html, do a JAS 39C Gripen in Hired Goons colors.

At the same time, idiots with a ton of money and no sense are the traditional goldmine for mercenaries. We probably could've made huge amounts of money with the Free State while doing very little actual dangerous fighting. More fun to bomb the assholes into paste, though.

Black Diamond minimizes our exposure to enemy anti-air assets while still hitting all the objectives. The S-300 is extremely scary but By The Numbers tasks too many Gripens to dealing with it when it isn't a mission objective, relying on Phantoms to handle CAP against potential F-16s and Su-27s for other packages e: also i said we should hit the truck with a cruise missile earlier and that's the only plan that goes with that so

Agree, Black Diamond is the most efficient use of our resources. (Except for the cruise-missile-meets-truck thing, but ridiculous overkill is incredibly Hired Goony. And it's the safest option!) PenguinSalsa fucked around with this message at 17:07 on Apr 25, 2017 |

To all the voters out there, I'm open to minor last-minute suggestions and tweaks to Black Diamond (assuming Yooper is ok with it). Think we should add an extra Tornado to SEAD or something? Let me know and we'll see if we can make it work. The Sandman posted:Oh god, I just had a brilliant idea (admittedly, it'll only work once): we get them to unknowingly hire some of our pilots, then just fly off with their planes. Don't we happen to have a brilliant, misunderstood rogue pilot who Crazycryodude posted:I'm pretty sure we could turn him for, like, 3 cases of liquor and a plane ticket. Add in some hookers and we'd be good to go. PenguinSalsa posted:Agree withh the previous poster, Black Diamond is the most efficient use of our resources.

Operation Black Diamond. Because we were hired to make that shipment disappear, and hilarious overkill is ideal.

Black Diamond might be in the rough but it is a diamond still. Beside it has that hilarious overkill factor.

I like a bunch of these plans but I think Black Diamond is our best bet. This is a pretty varied environment with a small force attempting (too) many disparate missions considering our (lack of) reserve to respond dynamically; therefore, a conservative stand-off/hilarious cruise missile overkill plan is best.

I'm cool with revisions up to the moment I run the mission. Colors and Logos There's some iconic SA features I'd love to see incorporated. (Though not required, just an idea)     There's a shitload of FatBees made for GoonFleet as well, some are quite creative. Lots of very inspirational Goonfleet propaganda, but unless you were there for it most of it won't make any sense. Not to say it's not entertaining. Also hi to any other EVE bro's. I, like 99% of you, don't play EVE anymore.

My tweak is still "what do we do if the S-300 is covering the rest of the Bulgarian force like it obviously will be?" e: also I still technically "play" Eve, after a fashion. High five and also commiserations.

You people voting for my plan understand that it's an absolute gamble and has even odds of half our stuff getting shot down, right? And expends a ludicrous amount of expensive munitions. I'm still supporting it just to see what 16 SDBs vs a radar looks like.Soup Inspector posted:And I'm probably sounding like a broken record at this point but I liked the interview snippet posted earlier. Thanks! I also feel like the only valid Hired Goons livery is every aircraft having a unique one. Bonus points if the multiseaters get to paint parts of their aircraft separately. The Reaper is unpainted. gently caress the haters.

But I also see the value in Bacarruda's stand-off plan with limited incursions. I tried to thread that needle with Pocket Rocket Monster, which I still support, even though it's clear that no one else does

If the s300 is far enough forward to cover maverick range over the front its drat near covering our airfield and the answer is for five guys and a mortar to get behind the lines and shellac it also we would know before the op when it smites our drone well behind the lines

Yooper posted:Colors and Logos Stuff like that (other than cat drugs because how do you do an animation on a supersonic fighter) could be different unit markings, akin to the Luftwaffe's geschwader markings during WW2. There'd still need to be a company insignia (the crown) and a registration, because these are nominally civilian aircraft.
