CONVOY So since the ARMA 2 TLX Server nothing happens much instead of:VDMs,RDMs people asking for comp etc...I'm suggesting that from time to time OPFOR or BLUFOR could make Convoys.There would be 2 types of Convoys,the standart convoy and the High Value Convoy. Basic Convoy 2 or 3 KAMAZ or MTVR(utility,repair) 2 Armed UAZ or humvee The basic Convoy would be transporting low-medium tier LOOT such as:pistols,submachine guns,medium-low price ores,ammunition or supplies too.The KAMAZ or MTVR would be in the middle between the armed UAZs,there would also be a 10 metre space between each vehicle. Now,the High Value Convoy would transport would be transporting on its gear powerfull and dangerous thing such as explosive devices,RPGs,assault rifles,sniper rifles or high value ores for example:diamonds or platinum.So since it`s transporting high value items inside it`s gear or TRUNK it should be very well protected. High Value Convoy 2,3 or 4 KAMAZ or MTVR(Utility,repair,ammunition) 3 or 2 armed UAZs or humvees. 1 Armored vehicle. So,these convoys would be like a event that can be lead by a group of players but of course in order to actually form a convoy "event" the group would have to ask for a staff member that is currently ONLINE at that moment for permission to do it,and if the people making the convoy wish to make it go through BLUFOR or OPFOR territory they would obviously have to ask the faction that controls that territory. The way it would work is that the faction doing the convoy would announce in GLOBAL CHAT for all the players that are currently in the server when they start moving,the convoy would have a path set by the faction,the path would be marked by putting black dots on the map,On the way,armed civilians or insurgents could set an ambush to eliminate the drivers and the escord and if they suceed by doing that,they may take the loot located inside the gear or trunk on the KAMAZ(which in case of the BLUFOR the MTVR) A couple hours ago (when this post was posted)me and some people playing as OPFOR did a convoy with admin authorization,it had 2 KAMAZ [Ammunition and Repair] filled with weapons and explosive devices,and it was being escorted by a BMP-2.Some time later when we passed through Checkpoint Delta and went into BLUFOR territory (also with authorization) We got ambushed after a couple minutes by some insurgents with a CDK tag on their names,they started firing explosive ordinances at our direction missing the trucks and barely damaging the BMP-2 we then went to go hunt for them leaving both trucks to be guarded by the BMP-2.Some time later we noticed that both trucks were on fire but the BMP-2 was perfectly FINE as if the insurgents shot at the trucks on purpouse just to destroy the loot (there was like 3 million worth of loot inside those trucks),we later found them and neutralised them but the convoy was totally ruined.So there are some bad things about making these convoys. Also the Trucks should always be unlocked and the ones who plan to intercept the convoy. Also if you like it remember to leave a like!
