  1. Sir, searching for TacOpsCav on the AKO\KCC turns up nothing. Wonder if they've mistakenly take TacOps out of the Knowledge Centers. I can't find it at least. :confused:
  2. thought "uh-oh, I've done it now. the Majors' p*ssed!"
  3. Major, got this email sent to my AKO account: "majorh.holdridge has denied you access to the TacOpsCav Support Knowledge Center." is this do to the upgrade being pushed out to the site?
  4. Sir, will there be a patch for the TACOPSCav version on AKO?
  5. thanks Major, I'm working with Army. I'd need: -M977 HEMTT -M939 & M923 5 Ton -2.5 Tons. We've still got M35A2 Dueces which I don't see in TACOPS. I think both the dueces & the FMTVs(?) would have M2 .50 cals.
  6. I'm looking for suggestions from MAJ H (or anyone else) regarding a class I'll be conducting in Feb on Combat Service Support operations at battalion/squadron level. I was going to use a sand table to show how the trains would be echeloned & how the echelons would interact. Then I realized that I can probably use TACOPS 4 to show this since it's got all the medics, recovery vehicles, etc. Don't think I'll need OPFOR, I just want to tow vehicles, evac casulities & run logpac-and show the vehicle composition/density at each level. I know I can damage vehicles with the umpire tool, but can I run a Blue only scenario? Also, can I edit a vehicles weapons? Our trucks mount M2 .50 cals, not just the crew's M16s. At some point I'd like to add OPFOR and run some CSS scenarios.
  7. I'd like to give it a shot, but it'd be hard to this weekend. Thanksgiving weekend would work better for me.

    New TacOps

    MAJ, could you post the Army POC? My commander said he got a copy while attending CGSC (I believe). I will be going to FKX next month, should I check in with someone at 16th Cav? Thanks, LP
  10. Jeff Gilbert brings up a good idea. For a high school class you may want to bring in Axis & Allies for a macro view of modern warfare. This would give them a visual of "tactics" used to fight a battle (ok-really simplified, I know). Also, they could see the "strategy" used to fight a war. A & A could also illustrate logistics on a macro level. Of course TACOPS if available for Tactics 101 and it has plenty of tools for battlefield logistics & Combat Service Support. FM 3-0, Operations (formerly FM 100-5) has some great doctrinal terms & it's online at www.adtdl.army.mil too. Just my 2 cents. LP out.
  11. I've downloaded the demo several months ago. I think it's very good, but haven't had a chance to purchase the full version. Been too busy play TACOPS and BCT. The demo is only M1A1. I've been thru Tank Cdrs Certification Crs and it's very accurate as far as I can tell. But my background isn't Armor, so you'd have to get a "tankers" opinon. I think USMA at West Point bought it for training.
  12. High speed, Sergeant Major! We're going to the same WFX. I don't know that the 37th Armor Bde is as familiar with commercial sims and their potential for training. I'm with the 38th ID DivCav and my Sqdrn Cdr is definitly interested and has down loaded demo of BCT. Also want him to check out TACOPS. Will email offline. Want to get where you guys are at. tanks, LP and thanks to everyone else for the great input. [This message has been edited by Saber 12 (edited 01-08-2001).]
  13. Rocket 7, I'm participating in a WFX at Leavenworth in July. Is this the one you're talking about?
  14. MAJ H, I've recently downloaded the demo and want to commend you on a fine simulation. Will purchase the CD after the holidays. I'm particuliarly interested in using it for training and you & CPT Proctor's BCT are the only sims that I've seen that would really fit the bill. I've gone to various links and have gotten ideas from the manual, and I'm interested in getting ideas from others. Cavguy, what techniques are the 16th CAV using? Wish we had it when I went thru AOAC. Thanks, LP
