DracoPaladore 0 Posted August 10, 2003 Bah! I'm getting frustrated with the first campaign mission. Keep getting my ass shot when trying to reach rescue point. Almost made it, was about one or two km's away when a group of goimens shot me. I've tried at least 14 times. ARghghghg Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nyles 11 Posted August 10, 2003 The paratrooper platoon sergeant (sergeant first class) model in-game in fact is a first sergeant according to his arm-badge. The platoon sergeant should have one "stripe" less. Just a detail, but maybe you didn't notice yet. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sgt.elias31 0 Posted August 10, 2003 SPOILERS im on the 3rd mission where you have to ambush the convoy. The 2nd mission has two different ways it can play out. The 3rd mission is impossibly hard though. 2 mines is not enough to stop a tank and 3 half tracks. The ai guys does do crap really and 10 germans get off their half track and kill me.

Place your mines on a perpendicular line with the ones the AI dude places them,hopefully the mines will get the first APC and the tank,u then really need to take out the 2 remaining APC's ASAP so as to get the enemy soldiers before or as they disembark...I finished this mission at second try with a massive amount of points Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

In the oringinal flashpoint it was so much easier to take out the tanks. I will try it again. It would be so much easier if the halftracks completely blow up with one shot. Hmmm so i absolutely have to take out that tank to win.[/b] Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sgt.elias31 0 Posted August 10, 2003 HELP!I cant find the dammed sniper in the 2nd mission PLEASE HELP i have been looking for hours! SPOILERS Hes on the slope of the hill behind a bush. He has some bushes on him , so look for a small unusual looking bush behind a bigger bush and the slope of the hill facing the junction. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Assume there's a german in every bush, and you'll probably get through, then again, speed has its advantages too. Cheers, Teeps (member of I44) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GoOB 0 Posted August 10, 2003 Yes, indeed the first mission made me paranoid. Stopped every now and then to make sure my squad was behind me... Then I saw something in the distance, picked the binoculars up.... Just a bit of shrub sticking up. Repeat until mission is complete Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sgt.elias31 0 Posted August 10, 2003 MINOR SPOILERS Also at one point when you get to the rally point and see like 10 germans coming after you , dont be a hero , just take your men and run away. Those germans are nade whores. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bonko the sane 2 Posted August 10, 2003 well...i didnt meant to spoil any fun...sorry about that.This is one tough mini campaign and having your team engaging auto from mission start is a baaad move,thats why i posted that hint. On topic: Release POW's mission...Hawkins mine doesnt work for me (i cant place it on ground) the soldier does the movement but mine stays in inventory...possible bug? And whats with that german mission??? whats that "todo" in briefing all about??? Anyway's...action packed mission with no clue of where i am at start Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Those germans are nade whores. Â Well, I usually take care of them. Nothing worse than a pack of wolves on your tail. I just wait until my units engage, and then I throw my nades before they do. Then I just wipe out that small patrol that comes up behind you. I just find that the biggest problem is moving through the fields. Theres at least 400 guys in the forest, 50000 guys in the field hiding everywhere. Damn man, it's like the movie predator. I swear one fired a panzershrek at me once.

A suggestion though , put a retry point after you save the big group of POWs. Hmmm the hawkins mines dont work. I go down to place them and they never place.

Baron Hurlothrumbo IIX 0 Posted August 11, 2003 Great addon! Been waiting for this for ages. But one problem: on the second mission of the campaign, I cannot find the sniper on the hill. I have cleared both villages, and the only thing remaining is finding the sniper. I'm on the hill marked on the map, and I've searched every square inch for the swine. Where is he? Don't make me UNPBO the campaign! He is not on the hill with the question mark. Maybe he ran away? Is the trigger for him dead or for him not present in area?
