How important is shooting vs land nav for scoring well? How much shooting is there vs walking around? How many unmanned checkpoints were there? What unique challenges were present? (That I wouldn't find anywhere else?)

Shooting vs. Land Nav:  Land Nav is weighed more heavily by a wide margin.  If you can't land nav, you won't make it to any of the shooting points, and the distances covered are pretty extreme.

A lot of the checkpoints are unmanned, with paper punchers and stamps or verification codes.

I'll list just a few of the events from 2014:

Poncho raft construction and water crossing.

Escape from POW camp.

Lock picking

Decoding

Force on Force challenges with non lethal weapons

ID, assemble, place into operation, and engage steel targets with foreign weapon






Tire lift (giant tractor tire had to be overturned a certain number of times)

Log carry






And then of course, there is shooting.
