    Arrow Shockwave Payback!




    Menara Military Airport, Marrakech
    ATTN: B.Gen Lorenzo Bendin


    Mr. Bendin,

    Your request has been received and approved by the board of generals. The plan will be sent to Whiskey Airfield in due time. We cannot guarantee, however, the completion of the plan in a timely basis.

    Your presence will be required tonight in preparation for the settlement of the abandoned Suez Canal as a preliminary base of operations. We are to catch the rear guard of the leaving PAC division and strike down as many units as we can before they turn around - at which point, we will retreat. B.Gen Krysta Whistler will be carrying out this operation, but the board has elected to go over the plan one more time to ensure optimal efficiency from the troops.

    Transmissions have also been sent to various locations across Europe and North Africa, and the dormant agents we have implanted will go live in forty-eight hours. As we have discharged the most incompetent soldiers and gathered a small amount of support in even the PAC troops, the new strike force is expected to perform with much more consistency than in the initial campaign. The infiltrators report to have secured enough men to overwhelm the PAC outposts at night and force them to attempt a re-invasion come daybreak. Coordination will be exercised in order to airdrop vehicles and supplies at the appropriate time.

    Furthermore, a breakthrough in IFF encoding has allowed us to sneak a handful of Titans behind the enemy lines while successfully avoiding detection. I expect you to personally oversee the operations at Verdun in this regard. An aircraft will be made ready for you after our meeting.

    If all goes well, we expect to root out the PAC in a matter of weeks and reclaim all of western Europe.

    Please confirm reception of this message.

    Best regards,



    -S.Cmdr Kent Stratford




    Listen up Soldiers!

    Shockwave might be over ... But the war continues!

    Yes, its ture. The world powers need you again! Join the EU or PAC and fight for survival on earth!

    Polish your boots, clean up your guns, and join the EU or PAC and lead them to the final victory.

    Session Details
    Timeline: Campaign will start at 08/02/08 and end at 08/30/08
    Date and Time: Every Saturday at 4:00pm EST.

    Server: TG BF2142 Secondary - IP: 64.34.184.33
    Server map sizes: 32, 48 (Titan)
    Server team tickets: 400
    Server round timer: 60 mins
    Server BattleRecorder enabled
    Server password: Will be given on TeamSpeak

    Be on TeamSpeak 45 minutes prior to the event (3:15pm EST)

    As army members are picked, we will separate them into the army-specific channels on TeamSpeak. Once the armies are separated, the final planing time begins. Then it's time to fight!

    Registration & SignUp registration here!
    It is recommended to register, because the CO, prior to any battle, must know the number of people signed-up, in order to devise the tactical plan for that battle.
    If you do not make it into the signups (and supporting members do get priority), you are welcome to show up in TeamSpeak on the night of the event.
    A few people are likely to cancel beforehand, so there may be slots available. However, this will bring a disadvantage, as late sign-up members will not have the time to read and understand the CO plan.

    There will be separate threads for each one of the battles on the "BF2142 General" forum. Where you can register & signup.

    In this thread please post your interest for participation, comments and any questions you may have.

    Rules
    All TG rules apply.

    Battles (maps)
    Both armies will fight the following battles (T designated battles can also be played as Titan mode):

    Port Bavaria (Titan possible)
    Bridge at Remagen (Titan possible)
    Liberation of Leipzig
    Wake Island
    Operation Shingle

    !!!Note that the order of the battles are dynamic!!!

    There will be only 5 unique battles. These battles will be played only once.

    Schedule
    This will span on 5 weeks. Each week we will fight only one battle:

    1. Saturday 08/02
    2. Saturday 08/09.
    3. Saturday 08/16
    4. Saturday 08/23
    5. Saturday 08/30

    Roles
    There are two armies, EU and PAC. Each army will have the following roles assigned to its members:

    1. Commanding Officer (CO)
    2. Squad Leader (SL)
    3. Squad Member (SM)

    Every member participating in the must remain in the same army! Any member can enlist for any role, including multiple choices. Members will be put in a pool and depending of their availability and role preference, they will be assigned to the roles in a “first come – first serve” basis.

    Roles breakdown
    CO:
    Choose battle and mode
    Devise the tactical plan of the battle
    Designate squads and missions
    Choose the SLs
    Command the battle

    SL:
    Follow CO plan
    Communicate the plan with SMs
    Designate kits
    Lead the squad

    SM:
    Follow SL plan

    CC:
    Responsible for the organization and coordination of the event
    Current Members: Big-Eye101, Arithea


    The two armies will start playing the game, in the specific battle and mode. After the end of any battle, the CO that lost the battle will choose the next battle and mode. This will give the opportunity to the COs to deploy tactics that are best for the current situation and squad composition.

    So sign up soldiers!




    What not to post:

    “What time will it be for me?” Work it out here
    “Im not a supporting member can I play?” Sure thing! Everyone can play but if we have too many sign ups supporting members get priortiy
    “Do I need TeamSpeak?” Yes! There might be some last minute changes which will be given on TS only
    “Can you change the date?” No.
    “Is it Ribbion generating?” Yes if you fight in at least three battles.
    “I dont have NothernStrike what should I do?” Play on Shingel and Wake only or get it

    Two reasons:

    1. EA hasn't released the Mac 1.50 patch.

    2. I don't have Northern Strike.

    Total bummer, huh.

    If you're really dedicated, you could always try running an emulator, though I'm not sure how the game would perform under such circumstances. And NS is only $10.

    Re: Shockwave Payback!

    Oh no... see I have Windows on a separate partition on my Mac already. But I'm hesitant to go buy ANOTHER copy of 2142 just so I can play it for however long it takes them to release the patch. As aggravating as it is, with the 80 dollars I shelled out to be a supporting member for a year, I have about 30 dollars to my name. I'll wait. I'm just sad EA doesn't care about it's Mac gamers.

    Re: Shockwave Payback!

    I noticed that we are looking at two different map sizes depending on titan use. Does that mean larger teams on those maps or the same number on a larger map?

    It allways depends on how many signd up for the battle (or lets say: How many are present on TS when its about to start). If there is a very small number of people we can change the map to the small version a few minutes before the battle starts. If we look on a titan map ... we will have a very long round than (But allways great fun!!!)
