Kushluk 21 Posted October 6, 2019 After releasing my original mission in 2014, I have since been working tirelessly on this scenario privately. There are probably close to 500 hours worth of SQF code in this 1mb mission file. Your task force stationed in Anizay is assigned dynamic and complex objectives in a 5km x 5km open world. Operators will need to work tightly with their team as the majority of tasks have complex conditions such as hostage executions or explosive timers. The supported player counts are from 1-24 however 5-15 is optimal. Discord, TFR or ACRE are not required, but I very much doubt you will succeed at many objectives without a suitable method of communication. DOWNLOADS/CREDITS/TUTORIAL https://sites.google.com/view/dicemod/ includes all the information you will need to get started. I have tried to keep the mod list as short as absolutely possible whilst maintaining an authentic feel. (Current version: 2.0 - October 6, 2019) SPECIFICATIONS Spoiler I could write a book on all the features, but here are some of the highlights: Additional scripted features: Intelligence log provides HUMINT and SATINT Grappling hook forr climbing structures Ordance disposal dog Ordance disposal robot JTAC/FAC support requests Penalties for killing civilians Automatic NPC escort Deployment to rally points or HALO zones Additional scripted enemy behavior: Automatic QRF deployment Civilians take cover from gunshots Dedicated RPG teams, snipers IED, VBIED and suicide bombers Realistic building search and patrol scripts Ambient world Trash lays across the roads Animals roam the landscape Birds flock to the sky from trees when startled Mosques play the call to prayer Logistics system to interact with objects MISSION DOSSIER Spoiler OPERATION BLOOD FREEDOM A group of western sympathizers have been rounded up for persecution by militant forces. Ambush their captors and release at least four of the individuals to maintain your presence in the area. OPERATION BONE FIREWALL A militant officer will start erasing the hard disk drive of an important laptop when you are detected nearby. Eliminate him before he is successful at clearing the data. OPERATION CRIPPLED SPINE Escort a player as the engineer class to the damaged logistics vehicle and have them use the toolkit to repair it. The NPC driver should safely return the asset to base, it doesn't need an escort. OPERATION DARK PRINCE Intercept, snatch and extract a high value target from an armed militant vehicle. The asset can be easily identified by his blindfold and earmuffs. A pair of ziptie handcuffs are essential to escort him. OPERATION DOOR KNOCKER The fly boys have requested you insert a JTAC/FAC to mark a militant bunker with red smoke for JDAM strike. There will be 2 mikes between target designation and impact for your team to withdraw to a safe distance. OPERATION FALCON HOUR Secure flight data from a downed MQ-4A Greyhawk drone. Get to the crashsite before the flight recorder is destroyed - remember to check the countdown timer. OPERATION GRANITE CAGE Militants have trapped a civilian contractor (NPC) in a large construction vehicle. Upon detecting your rescue attempt, the militants will set fire to the construction vehicle. Release the civilian before he burns to death and safely extract him. OPERATION HIDDEN OBELISK Eliminate a militant sniper pinning down a wounded US Army infantryman. Find and terminate the sniper at his over-watch position before the solider bleeds to death. OPERATION ICARUS FALLEN Locate and safely extract a downed helicopter pilot. Evidence of the pilot's location should be obtained from crash-site nearby. OPERATION IRON BASTION Militants are preparing to launch a rocket barrage against a United Nations forward operations base. Disable the MLRS by eliminating the operator prior to the launch in order to complete this tasking. OPERATION JAGGED STEEL Locate and destroy a T-72 main battle tank that is being maintained by militant engineers. Destroy it with anti-tank weaponry or an offmap JTAC support request. OPERATION OCEAN PALADIN Escort the EOD Technician (NPC) from the staging area to an offroad with a naval sea mine in the tray. Once your team is detected a countdown to the detonation will trigger. OPERATION RABBITS FOOT Secure and clear a reported mine field using the Engineer class to deploy canine and robot assets. The map marker indicates how many mines remain active. OPERATION SENTINEL WOLF Drive the police offroad from the staging area to the marked map location whilst ensuring the safety of both the Security Advisor and his vehicle. The delivery location should be a building in the same grid as the objective map marker. OPERATION SHACKLED TIME Locate, rescue and extract a reporter being held captive. Upon the discovery of your rescue mission, the executioner will start a kill clock. OPERATION SLIM PICKINGS Drive the United Nations Heavy Expanded Mobility Tactical Truck (HEMTT) from the staging area to the crashed C-130 Hercules and use the logistics system to return six cartons of scattered aid supplies to the truck. Your tasking will be considered a failure if the HEMTT is destroyed. Supplies are found nearby the crashsite and in nearby buildings. OPERATION SWAMP ANGEL Eliminate a militant warlord before he escapes. The target will run to a parked Mi-8 helicopter from a nearby building when you approach the target location. Eliminate him directly or destroy the chopper after he is onboard. MEDIA / SCREENS Spoiler Airburst Artillery https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/581729407631097862/588318607641935872/output.mp4 Dynamic Area of Operation Call in support missions to hold back the militants and keep logistics in check. Explosive Ordnance Disposal (EOD) plays an essential part in several objectives. Tools such as grappling hooks can provide an advantage when executing an operation. Militants fight with any weapons they can muster such as pistols, shotguns and hunting rifles. Keep an eye out for suicide vehicles which boast improvised explosives. CHANGELOG Spoiler v2.0 - October 6, 2019 * Public release v2.1 - TBA * Will include hot-fixes for issues found after public release. 8 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Godis_1 63 Posted October 11, 2019 Great!! I loved to play DICE back in 2015. Glad to see a sequel :) Unfortunately I'm not with the online unit anymore due to a longer break from Arma. You wrote that players could be from 1 to 24. So I could run it on my own for now? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kushluk 21 Posted October 13, 2019 Absolutely you can run it in Singleplayer, though you may want to make some edits to give yourself AI teammates. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
smiley nick 51 Posted November 26, 2019 Firstly, thank you so much for putting all this time in. I feel bad there has not been much of a response. I've played this a lot that I'd like to start running it on a server with a few of my friends. Do you have any plans to move your assets over to a steam workshop, as it just helps manage the file version and means everyone can get the mods without too much trouble via the launcher - it also means randoms can join and get to experience this awesome mission.

Kushluk 21 Posted November 27, 2019 Haha no problem at all mate. It was developed for private use however I thought I may a well share the love :) I will certainly look at moving @DICE to steam however it shouldnt need many changes due to it mostly being sound files. The other mods are already all from the Steam workshop: CBA ACE RHS US (+ ACE Compatibility) RHS RU (+ ACE Compatibility) CUP Terrains Core ANIZAY Shoot me a PM if you want assistance with any customizations to run on your server.

Vonhellthing 0 Posted December 3, 2019 Having a bit of an issue. I am hosting on my local machine, however when my friends try to join they will spawn in and after about 30-40 seconds, will keel over and then get "Mission complete" and get sent back to the unit selection. Any suggestions? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
