CO18 Retake the Island

Hi all!

I just finished my latest coop mission for Operation Arrowhead. This one features the Swedish Forces Project and Mana island.

Description:

Without warning the Russians have landed troops on Gotska sandön, an island off the east coast of Sweden. No diplomatic communication between Russia and Sweden has hinted of any hostile intent prior to this event. But still, enemy forces have invaded Swedish territory and therefore we must launch a swift counterattack and retake this strategic island.

So as a first move you and your unit from the 1st Amphibious Batallion have been tasked to assault Gotska sandön, and take out the Russian AA defences and a mobile radartower. This will enable our airforce to perform attacks on enemy ships and other units in the area. The task at hand is an important one - the people of Sweden are counting on you to get rid of the intruders!

Changelog:

v.0.90

- mission now fully supports SP mode

- added more enemy patrols around the island, both in vehicles and on foot

- increased the amount of Russian SF type soldiers in the Russian camp

- added trigger for 'surprise' objective

- changed Swedish Forces' group IDs for an improved authentic feel

Installation:

Extract the .pbo file(s) to your ArmA 2 Operation Arrowhead\MPMissions folder.

Extract the .pbo file(s) to your ArmA 2 Operation Arrowhead\SPMissions folder for singleplayer.

Notes:

The current version (v.0.90) has Swedish briefing/radio messages/markers only. An English version will be released soon.

Mission is also playable in SP.

I get "no player was selected" when trying to load this mission

[lNTRUDER 26]

Hi demon. You tried it as SP ?

[demonlord89 10]

Got it working.

SPOILER:

Cant find that map...killed all..looked everywhere

[sweguy96 10]

du hur fan får man igång uppdraget egentligen??

[lNTRUDER 26]

Got it working.

SPOILER:

Cant find that map...killed all..looked everywhere

Hehe okay. The map is in one of the tents.. BUT once shooting starts going on around it I noticed that sometimes it falls "into" the table...sort of... And therefore seems quite invisible. The table rocks when hit by rifle fire (who wouldn't :D ) and that small movement can apparently cause problems. As you experienced.

Will try to get around that somehow. Thx for feedback!

@sweguy96

Försöker du köra SP eller MP ?

[sweguy96 10]

SP skulle gärna prövat men det står bara no player was selected.

[lNTRUDER 26]

OK, i ärlighetens namn har jag inte testat om det funkar bra i SP...pysslar ju mest med MP-uppdrag. Men du kan ju bara dra igång en lokal server och köra uppdraget därifrån, funkar kanon. Blir ju som SP fast via en liten omväg. Och du får respawna också :)

[lNTRUDER 26]

Du ska ju inte berätta om det finns en överraskning :D

[lNTRUDER 26]

@Profanwolf

lol I know, but at least you won't know what the surprise is until you play :D
