ABOUT THIS MISSION

There is no scenario in this mission.

It is a purpose though it enjoys the combat generated at random.

Plan tactically if you hope for victory in this mission.

Please know some principles to win.

TWO PRINCIPLES

1) If the number of construction of bunkers is little, the enemy's raid is also few.

2) The defense of the bunker where the construction position is far from the base is difficult.

About one

- Please make the construction of the bunker a minimum if it is non Hight-end PC.

- Please construct a lot of bunkers if you want the fierce battle.

About two

- The encounter with the enemy increases when the travel time to the bunker is long.

- The probability that the bunker is seized by the enemy increases.

- Do everything quickly.

Great! I overlooked this post, and posted on the previous post. Nice to see you are still creating great mission. Thanks!

Are you going to addin the USMC and Russians since your mission is non-OA standalone?

[Nazul 10]

I love you Stiff!

[madeineano 15]

I've absolutely love these missions, since Arma 1 days.

I believe its these missions that have made me proficient at controlling my bots.

Ive always wanted a person vs person version (1 on 1) I think it would play out like a strategic chess like type of mission.

I have on a few occasions tried to convert these missions to person vs person (for Private use only) so a friend and me could have a game/grudge match but I simply don't have the skills to do so.

Anyway thank you so much for creating these missions

Sorry for any spelling/grammar mistakes I'm dyslexic so writing stuff down is a challenge in itself.

I think that I can do it by the next update. :)

I knew it! ;)

>madeineano

Hi, I have spent for five years until it reaches this style at last.

You will be able to achieve the purpose earlier than this as long as there is zeal.

I will permit your derived type's release to this community.

It looks forward.

As always, its awesome. Thanks Stiff!!!

[Muahaha 10]

Hey Stiffs, can I make some suggestions on your great missions....

Instead of having normal US army/USMC troops can we instead play as Spec Ops like Force Recon team with lesser team mates but with more support like capability to call in air strike reinforcement via SECOPs/support modules?

So the action is more of behind enemy lines instead of pushing the frontline. Thinking bout this since OA offers alot of stealthy features and of course the thermal sights.

Cheers.

Your suggestions can be understood.

I am planning arrangement in the map of the radar site.

The destruction of the radar site makes the chance to acquire air supremacy.

The special force is sent to the destruction because the radar site is in the enemy area.

HQ asks the player participation in this duty.

The player is temporarily assigned to the special force when participating.

If this is completed, some of your suggestions might be filled.

[Vympel999 10]

Any chance you can separate Air , Armor ,Light assets so you can pick which one you want independently , i for example you dont want air but you want tanks or whatever separate menus would be nice.

[Muahaha 10]

It's already available in the menu in game where you can request for either tanks or IRV seperately, while air support comes in the form of airborne troops. No request of gunships yet.

Oh I guess i haven't gotten that far.

[Nazul 10]

Im unable to play this mission. I get error when trying to start it.

'No entry 'bin\config.bin/Cfgworlds.5'

Any ideas?

EDIT- Fixed, I extracted the folder,Seize_zones_Zargabad_v1.5, from the zip and that was causing the problem. Game was looking for world called 5.

[Vympel999 10]

I got the artillery base , how do I call arty support?

[Muahaha 10]

It's via the action menu, where you can call arty support, and click on the map for the spot you need them to rain hell.

Woot! Nice Thanks Stiffs!

Hey any chance of re-releasing khyber-pass OA version? :)

[Vympel999 10]

Only issue I have so far is that AI is easy to overcome even on hardest settings I easily take all the bunkers and they hardly ever make it to retake them.Ai also has issues with detecting me at close range just kind of stand there and look at me for 5 seconds nor do they actively engage me when they spot me at range maybe one fires all else run around I tried using GL4 ddint help much but now the entire town is on fire:bounce3:

You might want to try with ZeusAI. It packs a punch.

Trying that now.

Hey any chance of re-releasing khyber-pass OA version? :)

It is my loved mission. ;)

The situation that the pilot becomes enemy's captive can be made also in Seize zones.

The captive rescue duty is planned just like the destruction of the radar site.

Sounded like your missions are getting more and more exciting. So I reckoned you going to put all AI pilots that crashed to be captive and needed to be rescue ?
