Operation Miner Violence with the 212th Attack Battalion in ARMA3
What was that an amazing operation, but also, a lot of hectic scenario's happened during it.
At the moment I am mainly playing in a ARMA3 unit called the 212th Attack Battalion. Been playing there for around 1.5 year and what a lot of fun has is been.
Every week there are multiple operations that we play, but this one... Called Miner Violence...
As a soon to be teamlead in the unit, I had the "command" over 3 others, together we were the Team Shadow 2-1 under squadleader "Cordy". We were dropping off just outside a CIS FOB.
Together with other squads, we took the first FOB with relative ease, a few casualties but the clankers were fried!
The next objective was another FOB, which we took with even more ease.
My squadleader and I thought... this does not seem right, we took both FOB's in one hour, which is very, very quick.
And we were right... the third objective was to secure a mountainbase and boy... we dropped in via LAAT's and we were immediately pinned down. Even with our mechanised units, that included 2 AT-TE's, we could not push through the CIS fortification of the landing zone and almost everything was blowing up.
I personally died multiple times, and our ARC squad, the Banshees, were fully wiped out.
Eventually our platoonleadership ordered us to take the long way around, which seemed fine at first but we got ambushed by AAT's and B2's. But we pushed through those lines!
Eventually we had to fight up hill, in the middle of a minefield, but once on top, our platoon took the base and secured a HVT. The relief when we had secured that base and maintained a foothold on the planet was great. We extracted succesfully and the 212th Attack Battalion did their work again!
FOR THE REPUBLIC!

I would like to post more short stories about the missions we are doing within the unit, since I think it is a great way of playing a STAR WARS game with a lot of people.
STAR WARS has been one of my favorite franchises of all time and RolePlaying in a unit is amazing.
Before I joined the unit I had my doubts about it, because it seemes so "strict". But I have never been so wrong.
Yes it is a unit and there are some "rules", but everyone there are STAR WARS fans that have the same goal, playing a massive STAR WARS game together.
If you do want to try it out, hit me up!
