Hello, GENTLEMEN! I would like for this thread to be well underway and resolved before Thursday's update so we can begin to prepare for whatever awesome thing we will be doing next week. Once we decide specifically what we are trying to do, we can create a "must-have" shopping list (partially done in the Malta thread already) and present it to our comrades on the normal Zeon side board. The two best options available to us at this moment (imo) for a combined offensive operation are as follows: 1) Malta www.planetzebes.net/oyw/places/malta.html2) One of the EFGF Naval Convoys. www.planetzebes.net/oyw/places/convoy1.htmlwww.planetzebes.net/oyw/places/convoy2.htmlwww.planetzebes.net/oyw/places/convoy3.htmlWe need to decide for SURE which to attack really soon, regardless, so we can rally the troops behind us. PS - I'll edit this with more info a little later, going to play sum halo now lolz.

I think two actions need to be taken, one for certain is the capture/destroying of one of their naval convoys, we jus lost RF-4, need to even it a little... another is retaliation against Tylatz, which I think Andrew is on.
We need to contact Viktor, see if he's gonna be active.
And I want to be available personally for whitebase when it comes to earth and the event at California Base goes down later in the rpg.
I propose Naval convoy(s) and retaliation, as well as keeping eye on pacific. Then we hit Malta, or vice versa. I would like Chan's tactical input if possible.
-proposed naval task force would be myself, dan, viktor and the jukon II

I was wondering, if we captured Malta and built a War Factory and a mine wouldn't that make up for the side RP we lost from RF-4?

And also, I'm not sure if it's worth it to retaliate against Tylatz so early, he's injured for 3 days anyway, so best-case Andrew wouldn't be able to attack him until next Tuesday if I'm right.

A War Factory is a very expensive proposition. Remember, all sources of income you build goes to the owner of that compound. In other words, capturing Malta would make it a player base and the player who owns it would get the RP.

Okay, so as of right now I'm planning to move into Central Asia tomorrow to purchase a Gallop and accompanying equipment in Friendly territory on Monday (I think). I'll begin moving immediately, which should put us able to attack on Wednesday (in theory), depending on what the Feds do.

I need a list of everyone that will be participating, need to try and divide forces up accordingly, and if I can manage enough money, a second Jukon might help. (Not enough aquatic people, no one loves me :-p) But seriously.
Naval Force:
Jukon II: -Acguy -Panzergrenadier
Xavier Brennan -Luggan -lvl2I Acguy -lvl2 Agguguy
Ritter Novosad -Marines -Panzergrenadier
and would like to add Viktor to this list as well, or at least have his RP if he gets removed... preferably have him as a unit... once you let me know who else is participating, we can figure out who goes where, might request Kasey Greer as well. we'll see

Looks like Andrew (Efreet) is trying to make it across, but he got blocked by a patrol.

Ok, loose idea of what I'm imagining with the attack. Cuz I'm tired, head hurts, and my football team sucks...
Two teams basically, divide fleet into sea and land/air. Send the Gaw around the backside, drop the ground suits and all its reinforcements on the back side of base where mountains are. Set up the artillery suits to bombard the southern/western walls, at same time, have the two Jukons come in to the harbors, or wherever the ships are patrolling.
The Subs, while the shelling is happening, will stealth in, shoot the infantry units out in manned torpedos to try and board the Himalaya and Hillocks, Subs will then dive to avoid detection and the escargots.
Once the ground units start moving in, the Marine suits will launch and take out what the infantry can't successfully take, with back up support from the Jukon and Jukon II. Maybe have the Gaw fly back around to the sea side to provide aerial support over the harbor.
Scarth should go with the mountain team, be useful against infiltrating and possibly taking out the tanks and shit. After I get y'alls opinion we can flesh it out, with definite numbers, people, actions etc. Sorry for vague over view, like I said, I'm beat.

Chris and Zero - I posted a quick, rough plan (with a matching map!) of a potential attack strategy. The main overview is more or less the same as yours, Chris, some details are changed slightly in terms of scope, and a few others are altered to fit the general theme I'm going for. I mostly posted it there to get feedback from Seta and Draco since they were currently available.
Also Chris - When we form the fleet, would you mind buying 6x Dopp for the support vehicles fleets can have? I may also need you to purchase a flight support option of 6x Dopp for when we actually attack, my coffers are running low.

2 issues, 1, I can't purchase til tonight, can't join fleet til tomorrow. 2. Dude, thought we agreed to work on plan before presenting it to anyone. It would be much to our benefit to board the ships, and try to tactically take them out and or prevent the himalaya from launching its AS stuff. You're current plan seems to kinda leave a big hole for the naval side to get fucked... also, did Dan purchase?
