    S10W1 Solo Challenge 3 - Tier 1 SNAFU w/ Pistol Guide

    PH.Azen and Bone_Frog asked me to compromise SNAFU OPSEC, so here it is:

    First, I borrowed a UNIDAD UH-60 Black Hawk and proceeded northbound on Airport Rd. To the east, you'll notice a convoy which always joins my ops at the best possible time.





    Since firing missiles would have led to a mission failure, I came in low (10ft. AGL) and slow, and let my side gunners sweep the street.





    When the active threats were neutralized, I gingerly landed the Black Hawk and redesignated it as "Roadblock 1". "$6M for a roadblock?", you ask. Hell, it's not MY $6M. Be sure to obstruct northbound entry on Airport Rd., as well as eastbound and westbound entry to Airport Rd from the cross street immediately south of the objective. Multiple technicals will approach from the dirt road to the west (seen behind Roadblock 1).





    Since there still wasn't anyone in the streets to play with, I decided to engage in some anaerobic activity and hoof it to the gray building, designated "Gray Building 1", immediately north of the objective.





    Stretching and priming my muscles prior to the op ensured that I would reach Gray Building 1 without pulling a hammy.





    Through the doorway, I executed a buttonhook, took cover, and immediately radioed for Guns For Hire. A quick peak out the doorway, and I was also able to landmark a radio call for a Diversion in front of the yellow ochre building, designated "Yellow Ochre Building 1", across Airport Rd. and immediately west of the objective. I then radioed for Spotting on my location and set up sync shots on the three most immediate threats. After clearing the area, Little Brother came out of his hole and went into EOD mode. Now to exercise those quads!





    On the roof, I was able to take in the wondrous scenery and take a long, deep inhale of exhaust fumes and jet fuel. Incidentally, it also provided LOS and good cover.





    Technical 1 destroyed. Technical 2 destroyed. $6M for Roadblock 1 was worth it.





    Now for that pesky Santa Blanca UH-60 Black Hawk. Miraculously, my pistol round penetrated the fuselage and hit the pilot in the genitals, causing him to reflexively headbutt the self-destruct button. Yeah, baby! Then I pistoled out a couple more snipers, and a few more technicals with rebel assistance.





    At 15 seconds left on the buzzer, it was back down, street side. Everyone in the parade looked exhausted!





    I decided to borrow the truck with the pretty, yellow barrels in the back.





    Handbrake northbound onto Dirt Road #82569, and a little suspension and tie-strap testing down towards the quarry, and...





    The package has been delivered!

    Does Vampire's superior grip strength enable him to grapple the grating and prevent a tumble towards certain death?

    Tune in next time! Same Ghost time! Same Ghost channel!

    Is Vampire wearing a lead lined suit that keeps him from becoming a walking nuclear disaster after essentially sitting on a dirty bomb explosion? The world may never know.

    Hey, don't look at me. Mitchell is the cheap bastard that sent my guys out instead of dropping a dime to call NEST. I'll be sending him our medical bills and leaving our body parts in his mailbox as they fall off.

    But I will say this... my hemorrhoids cleared right up!

    Jeeze, you guys are putting in WAY more effort than I did.

    After clearing out the initial batch of thugs, I just went straight to the rooftop of the building Kozak spawns in. Stayed up there, shot down on guys on the street when I felt like it, had to shoot the two Snipers and the Chopper down, but that was no sweat, and when I was down to the final minute, I booked it down to street-level and hopped in the truck.

    No sweat, no retries.

    Yeah... I just hopped in the truck, drove to the disposal site, and waited for 3 minutes right after Kozak started to disarm.

    So my Blackhawk road block did nothing, The Technicals approached form the South instead of the North. $6m(don't know how many Bolivars and can't be asked to look it up) road block courtesy of Unidad was a no go. Uncle Simon is disappointed. On the flip side, me, my P12 and my team of Rambos with a little Rebel support had no problems. First try done and dusted, only went down once because I was droning the area for a mortar strike and the dude snuck up behind me.

    Bravo zulu, Pirate. But I notice a disturbing lack of headshotted Influence buchones in your challenges. XD

    I'm saving that for tomorrow. That seems to be more of a grind than anything. I'm probably gonna off El-Chido 5 times. I can snipe him from the Santa Muerte statue. I may even press the do not press button...

    Yeah, that's how I did it as well, "Do Not Press" button and all. XD
