sheepshank replied to Aculaud's topic in OPF MISSIONS
a couple of things i have found with this mission that can help though im not as far as mucking about with the software.
is always take a law launcher and binos when the mission begins
when ambushed put your 5t truck behind trees on right hand side...join firefight...then ride truck back to lamentin
when you get back to lamentin dont report back to the officer immediately.
assign 2 of your men to the vulcan and send that to the trees at the back of the town so it is out of the way of fire from tanks etc.
assign all but 2 of your men you have left to the m2 emplacements
the 2 remaing men 1 being a soldier equiped with a law the other with a law/gustav to the northwest of the village
then report
repel ruskies /shot down hind
after battle litter the roads into village with mines.
soon after you take charge. at this point you may even have a bradley if you do... direct it to the the back of the village out of the way
the mines should deal with t80s
then it is a case of loading up with ammo for the laws/gustav mounting the vehicles and making your way to the first aid posts.....if you have the bradley it is great fun shooting your way thro...but dont try taking on t80s without first dismounting your AT troops to soften it up
this is all providing the triggers work and your not sat there for ever awaiting the t80s (i have left the game in this state for 12 hrs it got very dark)
perhaps someone can tell me where i am going wrong commanding the bradley....i cant seem to look around i only seem to be able to use it from the extenal view where in the abrams the commander can rotate so having a 360 view
it would be more fun from inside
shoot me and i will bleed alot
i have found the same and i havent any addons except for gold upgrade.. i have found however that is is almost like a trip-up in most cases and if your press q to stand up again you will actually get up and carry on running...hope this helps

please help a confused...in the strategy guide that comes with the gold upgrade it states in several missions to select law, m21 etc before the mission begins... how? cant find any ammo dumps etc... insimple terms please for simple mind
