Regs+ only
RSVP is capped at 2 (TWO) due to how much will need to be taught and it's only fair that regulars+ get the priority for this as they've been waiting longer. I will most likely NOT bring in any extras. Leave your name in the comments if you want but do not expect to be brought in unless there is a no-show; I will allow ten minutes past the start time if you're running late before I give a place away to someone else. If you wish to reserve a slot in the case of a no show, PLEASE be on the TS at start time so that I might bring you in. It is highly recommended you have at least a basic understanding of how to use the 82mm Rangetable, either through reading the Mortar Guide or going through the paces on your own in the editor/server.

Topics covered:

  • Roles and Responsibilities
  • Basic Long Range Communications & Fire Missions
  • Equipment (Types of mortar and the gear to use one effectively)
  • Operating the mortar (Ranging, Calculating, Understanding)
  • 82mm Rangetable

Intent:

  1. Theoretical stuff
  2. Take turns as Gunner and LOADER, firing at targets indicated
  3. Work together as Gunner and Assistant to carry out fire missions (Can count as exam if requested, otherwise can schedule one at a later date)

Because I'd rather these be kept free for non-tag holders who want to learn as opposed to individuals who want to revise. YOu know what to do so you can revise in your own time.

Alright well, you'll be going through the whole course again from basics to advanced. Also, I'll be expecting nothing less than perfection at the ending evaluation otherwise I'll be in the mind to rescind your tags. If that's understood then I'll see you Sunday morning, @Guest .

Yes. Normally they run overtime but that was when they were two hours long. I've extended the time to two and a half hours which should allow me to get all of the course in. If we do run overtime with the course unfinished then we'll simply have to end training there. This usually happens with first timers but I'm hoping the extra time will assist that.
