So i have been thinking a bit.

And i am kind of interested in making a youtube series, about how to be a leader in star citizen. How to plan missions, how to execute them, and how to lead.

Would any of you be interested in this?

also, i am very much open to ideas.


This is based on my education as a military instructor of NCO's and officer training.

This could be really interesting. I am not much for giving you ideas ( as a redshirt I didn't live this long running face first into battle. I was one of the smarter lil guys that stayed in the back).
But seriously, I can see this as pretty beneficial. Are you going to cover troop tactics? or fleet squadron tactics (such as formation flying and such)? Or just general leadership training?

Was thinking general leadership, and someone already reminded me i should do troop training and squad tactics too.

but as i don't know much about formation flying and stuff, i guess i would have to study up on that topic.

not really interested, as we don't know enough of the game's mechanic to really know how to plan and execute missions in game. You don't know the tools the game will provide.
It would be interesting if the game already provided us with these kinds of tools, but I think you're a little early for this kind of video.

Actually my topics would be above what the game gives you.

So it would mesh perfectly later on with whatever tools the game will provide.

I think it sounds like a cool idea. Not sure I want to lead anything but everyone should get at least some leadership training as some of the best leaders don't lead by choice they lead because others naturally look to them for leadership.

I'm ex-military (Army) and wouldn't mind a refresher in some of these areas myself.

I would definitely check out check out the series, maybe then I wont have to chain my crew to their posts and break out a bullwhip.
You never know some of your crew might be into that.

Add a part where you keep asking Red 5 to defend the Y-wings wing and he doesn't answer because he insists on being called Young Jedi The Magnificent Starkiller
Big Red, Red Fox and Red October are standing by.

Also this is a cool idea.

As an NCO in the Army who thinks his Sh!t smells like roses.... I'm always looking for more ways to be better and to lead better.

As far as SC goes... Hell if it relates to the game and how to manage a crew on my carrack or other ships... I'll take that benefit too.
well i'll happily teach you the danish way, so that should at least be variations on what you are used to.

I work in a joint forces environment and find learning from other countries is a great way to pick up some amazing skills and styles. Be it weapons and tactics to the basic troop leading procedures....

Looking forward to your posts!

ok my current thoughs are like this

Youtube

Short thoughts series
- Short vids, touching on many subjects about leadership in general, and fleet command

The Academy
- Longer vids, talking about the different parts of leadership and planning

Live Academy
- Multiple skype lessons in small teams. Teaching in depth leadership and fleet command and planning. Price to participate would be any ship donated to me. Thinking around 4-5 hours a lesson, with multiple lessons.

You should make people practice writing OPORDs before each and every mission. Then give a briefing and follow it up with a sand table discussion. Also don't forget METT-TC. ;)
