So I've been in the crew for a couple weeks now and I gotta say I love it, and I think now that we've hit 400+ members we have such a great opportunity to do everything GTA online offers us. I love having crew only free roam sessions the TDM's , Races, and Captures, but I think it's time we start going beyond just that I know there's more than a few creative people in the crew who have amazing photo ideas and things like that and I've seen allot of different Roleplay ideas passed around. I think we should start tapping into those one idea I've seen many times here and on Reddit is a the idea of having a protection event similar to the "All For One" mode of Cops N Crooks back in GTA IV with our member count it's easily something we could do and should start to get ideas for it. My thoughts are we have a crew session only get a full lobby and split it down the middle 7 protecting 1 boss (ideally Notch) and 8 attackers.
General event guidelines would be maybe it's a business deal going down anywhere from Los Santos to Paleto bay or maybe a smaller trip within Los Santos. The attackers and protectors would have time to set everything up. The attackers having two attempts at taking down the boss first one being to the location either on the road driving with them or an ambush blocking the road. Defeat for the attackers would have to be preordained such as if it's a ambush on the road it'd be once all their vehicles were disabled or destroyed and of there's a blockade then until a required amount of deaths on the attacker side. (We'd have to decide on if it's one life for all players or one life per attack or other ideas) players who are out would either have to leave the area or maybe wear a colorful hat to identify who's active and who's not. Defeat for the defenders is obvious the boss being eliminated.
I'd like to have atleast 4 of the 7 protectors in suits (color coordination is debatable preferably all black but up to vote) the remaining 3 can go the same route with clothing or maybe be undercover in regular clothing. With the attackers I'd like to have them representing a group of their own be it gangbangers just in regular T-shirts and Jeans (color coordination up to vote) or maybe professionals in suits or anything else we could come up with.
Vehicle wise I'd leave it up to the group leaders Personal Vehicles would be fine but dumbed down maybe only 1 or 2 vehicles with bulletproof tires on each team and within limitations so attackers aren't running up in chrome adders maxed out with bulletproof tires. I want it well thought out like maybe a Granger to maximize seat capacity, or a van to allow a road ambush with two in the back using LMG's. I don't want it to end up being everyone going on there own bringing their
coolest cars fully modded so group leaders would decide which cars to bring based off their plans be it using motorcycles and hit and run vehicles. Pegasus vehicles would be used according to plans by each team obviously no tanks, helicopters are support roles only and the annihilator/buzzard cannot use the mounted guns but have gunners on the sides. Attackers could make use of buses and trucks to block roads for their attacks.
Weapons are pretty easy anything is okay to use but miniguns would be generally over powered RPG's and explosives would be for Suppression only no insta-blowing up cars used in the event but civillian cars and such would be okay. I'd like for team leaders to work within their team to discuss roles like maybe 1-2 snipers on attacker side. Make use of tear gas and only 1-2 trusted people on each team using explosives so no one accidentally blows up the Boss in the first 3 minutes.
General Thoughts/Rules
TL;DR
16 players split into 2 teams 8 Attackers 7 Defenders and 1 Boss. Attackers must successfully kill the boss while the defenders must protect the boss from all attackers.
*Warning
I wrote this on my phone and emailed it to myself and then copied and pasted what I had down and added a few things so its probably littered with repeats and half finished thoughts so if you have any ideas or improvements I'd like to keep it updated and make it better than what I have.

General Thoughts/Rules
- Only 1-2 Vehicles on each team may have bullet proof tires.
- No Miniguns, Explosives would only be used as suppression and would not be used to blow up vehicles used in the event.
- Pegasus vehicles can be used with the exception of the tank for obvious reasons.
- Helicopters can only be used for support options and can not use the mounted guns.
- Team leaders would pick roles for each member (i.e. Gunner, Driver, Sniper.)
- No planes of any kind (just don't see how they can be incorporated without being OP on either side.)
- Teams should dress in matching attire (i.e. Suits, Gang member clothing.)
- Each team mainly attackers should be allowed to practice their planned attacks at least once before actually doing the event.
- Defenders will have a set course to go with a end and beginning destination.
- Attackers have free range on choosing how and when they attack.
- Defenders and Attackers choose which cars they want to use secretly although for defenders there should be some semblance to each other (i.e. All blacked out or All tinted windows.)
- At the beginning there can be no espionage or double agent plans it'd be cool to have in later the possiblity of maybe paying a driver off or something like that to get information about the planned attack but lets keep it to the basics for now.
