The scenario here was I'm home with the family, in bed, when the alarm goes off.

Once I heard stimulus (role player yelling "dad help me") I start a hasty clear to the "kids room". Entering the hallway, I started to pie the near room when I ID'd the shooter in the entry way (known trumps the unknown).

Once that shooter was reduced I entered the "kids room" where I had a hostage taker behind the friendly. I pushed hard to my left to get an angle on the hostage taker and took a single shot that hit his mask in front of his right eye. Once he was reduced, I scooped up the hostage and moved back to the start location to hard point until help could arrive.

Key take aways:
React to stimulus - Once I heard the role player acting as my kid start yelling, this went from a systematic, to a hasty clear.

The known trumps the unknown - I left uncleared space to my rear on a couple of occasions because I was presented with a known threat or stimulus that necessitated aggressive action.

Speed is good, control is better - Only move as fast as you can make decisions and act on them.

Commo - My end of scenario commo was weak throughout. I need to work on that.
