BG ANZAC - 28 NOV 0830GMT (with TeamViewer support) - 4.397

[Gibsonm]

 

 

Daylight Saving has kicked in here and for the next 6 months the country is broken up into yet more time zones.

 

By now most readers will already know who BG ANZAC is, so I'll put the information relevant to this week in first, then background, etc. If you are new to the Forum, feel free to read the entire post.

 

IMPORTANT:  As a serving Officer, I am not allowed to make "public comment" about topics without clearance. This is why my signature block says what it says to cover written comment.

 

Recorded audio on YouTube = "Public Comment", especially if I were to express a personal opinion (without knowing someone was recording). In addition recording people's voices in Australia is illegal without their permission or a Warrant.

 

If you want to record a session, ASK! We maybe about fit you in (I maybe able to play the OPFOR, etc.). If you don't ask:

 

a. Expect me to ask you to remove the YouTube (or other media).

 

b. Don't be too surprised if you aren't welcomed back.

BLUF (Bottom Line Up Front):

 

Your Local time: Click on this link for Local time in your part of the world

 

Count down (based on local Canberra time): Time remaining until Meeting start

 

Mission will start promptly at 0830 GMT. If you want a pre game "chat" then by all means come on line at say 0830 GMT, but so that the Kiwi's aren't after Midnight, the Mission will commence promptly at 0830 GMT.

 

Agenda:

 

Based on the recent sustained good attendance, we are embarking on a more structured approach (only sustainable if the attendance is maintained).

 

Planned Agenda:

 

1st meeting: Teach / Discuss a topic (Attack, Defence, Convoy Escort, Reserve Demolition, OPs, ...) using a scenario / map as the basis for discussion.

 

As to what we cover, that will be will be determined by the response to the related email "newsletter" for this Wednesday sent to regular attendees.

 

2nd meeting: First volunteer develops a plan for the tactical problem and we see how they go. There will be a brief debrief at the end looking at strengths / weaknesses of their solution, which the person COing the next week is free to incorporate into their solution.

 

3rd meeting: We play the same scenario with a different CO (each able to improve / adjust their plan based on their predecessor).

 

4th meeting: We play the same scenario with a different CO (each able to improve / adjust their plan based on their predecessor).

 

5th meeting (if there is one in a given month): Q & A - You need to supply the questions or a "player's choice" determined by responses here / to email.

 

As always, visitors (apart from one individual) / first timers / spectators are welcome.

 

Current Standard:  4.397

In game chat / Communications:

 

You'll need access to "Teamspeak" to communicate with us. The Teamspeak software is available here: Download Teamspeak client software

 

How to connect and use it is detailed here: Steel Beasts Wiki Entry - Starter Pack

 

Primary = eSim Teamspeak. 216.22.24.158
Alternate = BG ANZAC Teamspeak. 144.130.10.25
Contingency = BG ANZAC Discord.
Emergency = Perhaps Teamviewer?

 

Remote Access / Screen Sharing / Whiteboard Sessions:

 

We continue the use of TeamViewer so people without the Steel Beasts software can connect and see and hear what we see and hear (looking over our shoulder if you like). Team Viewer available here

 

This maybe a suitable vehicle for people to see what the software is all about (you can even use it on a Mac), without having to invest in even a short time limited copy.

 

Anyway we'll see how it goes.

 

So if you are interested, visit our Discord site https://discord.gg/YyrUtH3 and sign up.
