Right now I'm in the midst of doing my very first raid on a CCS headquarters. For the record they're mostly hicks, yokels, etc but they also have some mercs, vets, and hardened vets. I am assaulting it with 4 agents with high levels in rifles and shotguns, and 2 soldiers which are crappy of course but their armor is nice, and I'm opting to leave my leader out of the raid.
How do I know when I've cleared them out and it's time to leave? Is it when a massive response is imminent? When everyone dies valiantly blasting conservatives? Or after killing an X number of conservatives?
Also, it seems I am condemned to have it become a violent action over the papers, even if I try and get it done anonymously. My future goals for CCS raids next time is to recruit mercs, rob them of their weapons and body armor, send them on a suicide attack, and then recruit agents and outfit them in body armor and weapons as they have high weapon skills (Highest I've seen so far is 11 in shotguns.) because man, when they get hit they go down fast. I'm also considering a high level medical guy to tag along because I saw one of my people bring a guy out from red 'NEARDETH' to white 'NEARDETH', so I'm guessing with high first aid they can heal on the field. Any tips from experienced CCS siegers will help greatly. Thanks in advance.
PS: Is there any penalty in robbing mercs of their gear and then just sending them off to die in an anonymous attack on the police station or something?
