Excellent mission sir! Best I've played yet. Better than any campaign missions I've played (I'm about halfway through now, but losing interest in the campaign).

Highlights:

1. Excellent mission intro using the dynamic map to brief the player visually.

2. Good location where ARMA ai seems to excel (i.e., the AI doesn't do as well in the big cities).

3. During the counterattack the BRDM moves in and out, making him very unpredictable.

4. Just the right amount of challenge. Took me about 4 hours plus a few saves to beat it.

Multiple times I had to retreat into courtyards, solo, low on ammo, with the AI constantly moving into flank me. Intense!

Small problems, in case you want feedback:

1. The M113 that comes into support defending against counterattack kept getting stuck on building walls. About 9 out of 10 times. Probably nothing you can do about that since its the same old lame AI driving like ofp...

2. I beat the mission, but the last objective for the counterattack was not checked off. But this may have been my fault, because I held back in the area where the original BMP objectives were, rather moving up to where the defend waypoint was.

Excellent work.

Nice little one!

I would change placing of these two SLA Soldiers near this UAZ to the hilltop (and make them look around!wink_o.gif.

All of the group survived the little fight in the village. But then.... 2 Urals full of troops an one BRDM. I think the BRDM moves to fast in front his comrades biggrin_o.gif

Berghoff,

How did you create your mission still picture? I have been unable to create a PAA file that works for ARMA missions, and have seen posts by others having the same problem.

Edit: Never mind, I have it working now. I had the wrong image file name in my Overview html. Texview works fine for converting JPGs to PAAs.

cool mission

especially the setting (Everon) is a nice way to discover new aspects in ArmA

finally I got the feeling that I could compete with the enemy AI. In the village, I can hide behind walls, in barns

one of the most advanced user missions for ArmA so far, with full-blown intro with dynamic map

Very good mission.

Good build up. My team minus one got massacred getting into the village, but as soon as I got in, i tore the place up. Really fun.

The rar extension is because it's a compressed file Get winrar from one of these

Once you've opened the file extract the mission pbo to your ArmA/Missions Directory then click on missions

The best mission for AA that I played. Good work thumbs-up.gif

Only that I would reduce the counter-attack strength a bit.

Nice little mission indeed.

I simply followed the instructions of my team leader(s) and I did well. Finished it in 20min but it was cool, city fights are fun in Arma. smile_o.gif

This mission reminds me of the Ofp demo mission and the later mission "Ambush".
