Feltan's Texas Crow AAR
Posted: Sun May 18, 2014 11:31 pm
Very good scenario. Challenging without being ridiculous, and tricky on how you must carefully engage to avoid hitting neutrals.
The Hostile forces will become Enemy without your overt action. Be on guard, you can lose the scenario if this happens to your disadvantage.
Also, without being a spoiler, don't just sail right up to the front door. Work methodically -- air neutralization, ship neutralization, and then recon prior to cruise missile strikes.
I lost one UAV to a MIG when they went Hostile -> Enemy. The other was looking for a mobile unit that I suspected was around -- it found it.
In the end I piled on, and shelled the airfield.
What I really like is the LCS component to this scenario. I am pretty sure this is how they are intended to be used.
