I head the tank wasn't used much in-game because our 3rd Pol. QRF blew up some bridges or something, and this really limited where the tank could go.
Also, to use the trucks you needed transport-points.
The 3rd Poldavian side pretty much controlled the supply-points for most of the game, so it's no wonder why you other guys didn't get to ride in the trucks all that often.
Also, in 3rd pol, we did get a few ovens, however, these did NOT fit the old Swedish tents BE had provided.
My team had brought a Norwegian 12-man squad-tent, and one of the ovens did fit in this.
Thus, we let this tent, which was originally our kit-tent and backup sleeping tent if the other one got flooded, become the battalion drying-tent.
Volunteers sat firewatch, this was mostly guys who were wet themselves and wanted to dry up and warm themselves, or people who had wounded their legs and couldn't go on missions.
We also dug ditches around our tents and many of us put up tarpaulins next to or over our tents.
After all, BE had only said they were to provide us with TENTS.
When I saw the forecast, I knew I had to provide for myself to stay dry, and so did most of the players in the 3rd Pol.
We were of course glad that BE provided us with the stoves and some wet firewood that we were luckily able to dry ourselves.
Yes, you DO pay to attend this game, but you can't just sit on your rear-end and wait for the crew to provide you with fun, action, dry clothes, dry tents, drainage-ditches, base-defenses and so on.
Try to be a little more prepared next time, and you'll have some more fun.
