A new section has been added to the Field Manual called “Squad Missions“.
The main purpose of this section is to have some template missions that can be run at any given time by members of our organization. It should also familiarize new members of the community and veterans with the goals of a given mission.
BloodyHeap has been sworn in as a Recon. Harbinger has been sworn in as an Assist.
Welcome HEROs!
We were geared up and decided to provide aid for fresh spawns. Lots of looting for farming equipment and seeds gave us plenty of supplies for setting up a small farm near the coastal town of Berezino.
Our mission had a rough start as you can see in the beginning. The first contact we made was a Twitch streamer named Fairlight_Excalibur, you can view his corresponding stream here: http://www.twitch.tv/fairlight_excalibur/v/3659271
The time stamps in his stream where our video recordings intersect are approximately: 35m and 1h 35m
Kasper has taken The HEROs Oath and has been sworn in as a Medic. Congratulations Kasper!
We look forward to running many missions with you!

We had several new members to our group that were training for squad play. This was their first run as a group in a bandit hunt. We were buddied up with veteran HEROs and new squad members, so I often referred to my buddy as “Buddy”.

The field manual has been updated, notable updates include:
The most important update for the field manual is under “Threat Assessment” and may be a huge positive boost for HERO squad survival.
The basic ideology of the “Threat Assessment” update can be summed up as “aiming is the same as shooting”. This ideology applies to both HERO squad behavior and encountering other survivors.
We were bandit hunting in Elektro and the server reset. We came back in and made our way down Sniper Hill.
Soon we were caught between 2 parties, a group inside Elektro and a group that shot first from Sniper Hill.
The video ends with me dying, but after all was said and done, we lost one HERO and the bandits lost one person. The other two HEROs patched up in a nearby house and when they came out, the bandits were gone.
