Tank School: 01 Tank Hunt (SP / COOP12)

Description
Welcome to Korbo's Tank School. These will be a series of missions based on real armored exercises and simulations, and missions from the TankSim game "Steel Beasts." They may be played in Singleplayer, but are intended to be played with at least one full crew of players.

These missions will require no mods, but can be played with them if desired.

These missions are intentionally difficult to help you or your team drill in armored warfare procedures, techniques, and tactics.

01: Tank Hunt (SP / COOP 12)

In this scenario, a BLUFOR armored platoon is tasked to eliminate all OPFOR armor in the zone. A number of enemy tanks will spawn in random places in a designated zone. Some may patrol, some may be stationary. Use all means at your disposal to eliminate all of them. You have 1.5 hours from mission start; go at your own pace, but be decisive in your actions to defeat the enemy.

This mission is designed for maximum replayability: CSAT tank spawns and numbers are completely randomized each restart. There is no 'set' way to complete this mission.

You are given unlimited ammo to help you deal with the numbers of tanks you may face, but you are still just as vulnerable as they are.

Respawns are enabled for vehicles and players (in MP), just
don't take too long!

BLUFOR:
4x M2A4 UP Slammers
Logistics: Repair and Refuel available at base.
ATVs

OPFOR:
?x T-100 Varsuk
--



"Tank Hunt" is based on the popular Steel Beasts scenario, "TANKS!!"


Planned Future features:
Vehicle menu for player tanks and enemy tanks, to create different armor matchups and improve replayability.

Less learning than practice exercise. In this respect, "school" is not quite the right word. Nevertheless, it can help to approach the topic of armored vehicles and to improve one's skills through trial and error.
If it is developed further, I would like to see an medical ward, a fast travel function (just to return to base if the vehicle fails) and a model selection to be able to test other vehicles.

Here is a good demo, hope this could help u to make a better field of fire set up.(more complex and fit to doctrine oblique fire, mutually supported battle position etc)

The animation fluency in arma3 is always a problem, I think it could not be figure out. I guess the GM DLC have already though about it(they even make launcher usable while button up).
I think the command/waypoint for ai/turret sector control issue is more important, especially for armor engagement, I has been worry me since 2014 lol because I always want to plan up fire sector in my disposition for ai defender, but it seems that many mission creator prefer to using script to figure it out(tank DLC and GM DLC mission, also some 3rd party mission in Workshop), and I don't know about scripting, sad.:steamsad:

@Foxtrot:
Glad you enjoyed my mission! Thank you for your feedback.
The mission is currently set up so that a variable amount of tanks will spawn at the beginning. At a minimum, 10 will spawn. At a maximum, 19. The mission will end itself when all of the spawned tanks are destroyed. Some may find you before you find them.

I considered having more, but the thought that 20 enemy tanks (T-100s no less) would spawn in an 5x5 km area is slim, and I wanted players to have some freedom without the feeling of being 'boxed in'. This is not a test of 'how many kills' but rather a test of tactical assessments, after all.
I'm still a very new scenario creator, so I'm learning more coding along the way.

Great mission, it was really fun to finally have something tank focused. Had a lot of fun and had plenty of those "Arma moments" too. I did have a question, are there a limited amount of enemy tanks set each game or do they continuously spawn? I managed to down 10 enemy tanks and couldn't find any more. Still, thank you for making this!

Agreed, I just wish for more attention to Tanks and armored vehicles in Arma 3, for instance, an animation modification which would switch the 'high turnout' with the 'head turnout' position, so players would have more of an incentive to turn out to see around their tanks, rather than risk their entire bodies.

Eventually, a SB type of mission in arma3 workshop, cheer!
