Hi, This is the first mission I have posted online. The mission sees you leading a BAF infantry section through a patrol of the Zargabad countryside in search of the Takiban. You will have to keep an eye out for ambushes as well as Takiban patrols and read the situation on the ground. I have tried to add a lot of variety to the mission and it should play out differently each time you play it. On average the mission should take around 30-40 minutes to complete and is aimed at those who like a bit of realism. The mission is based on a number of books I have read about the British Army in Afghanistan and is meant to represent a counter insurgency patrol against the Taliban. I used Drapers Air Support 1.3 and the amazing UPSMON script in this mission. https://www.dropbox.com/s/sp8nexet7zw8jyv/First%20Patrol.Zargabad.pbo I would appreciate any feedback about the mission as I've worked on it for a while now. Thanks, C

Excellent! Thanks very much. How do I limit the number of times I can call air support? Sorry for all the questions, I've never been any good at scripting. Also, is there a way to set it so that you can only call for support once contact has been made.

How can I remove the artillery and transport support? I just want the apache to show up when I call it.

Hi, Could anyone write a script, similar to the medevac module script? I'm trying to replicate popping smoke for a suitable LZ, the chopper landing but then actually taking the wounded or dead soldier, meaning he is no longer a member of the squad. I thought this would be far more realistic. Thanks in advance.

Could someone quickly explain to me how to set up the artillery module? I can't get the AI to fire at me no matter how much I try. IGNORE PLEASE, I WORKED IT OUT. Love the Dr. Feelgood avatar Mrcash2009.

Doesn't matter I fixed it.

Cheers Undeceived. PM me when you release :)

Thanks tom3kb. Could you please send me a link to your Battlefield Takistan campaign please? Thanks in advance :)

Hi, I'm looking for a resistance type open SP campaign. I remember playing one on ArmA where you started off by yourself and had to start your resistance group from scratch. You then attacked convoys etc to take on the army and eventually win. I'll be very greatful if anyone could point me in the right direction.

I just wish the AI would conceal themselves better when set to ambush and also open up at longer ranges making setting up an FSG possible.

Looking Good PR. Cant wait.

Note to self: April the 1st is tomorrow.

Lol! :)

Not bothered how long it takes. Just as long as it is awesome.

Cheers Mandoble.

Ive searched already but cant work out how to turn off the MMA scoring system. Its really annoying.

Hi, Im making a number of patrol based missions aimed at taking out militia groups. Is there a way to make it possible for Blufor to talk to Civilians and get information regarding enemy positions etc?

There is an example mission somewhere. Just do a search for it.

Cheers for the help Beagle.

thanks. Is there anyway of making any player bilingual? I'm using British troops made by Stalker GB.

Ive got ArmA 2 1.08.

Hello everyone, Not sure if this is the right place for this but here goes. I'm currently making a number of patrol based missions using Stalker_GB'S British troops. My question is, do you guys like long missions based on real patrols or do you prefer quick action packed missions? The missions I am making take around an hour to complete but are far more realistic. Your opinion is very much appreciated.

Sounds good.

Sounds Good DaveP. I'm setting my missions to be everything from standard patrol with little contact to full blown skirmishes.

Thanks for the feedback everyone. The missions I am making are pretty much like Inkompetent said. I played through my first mission a couple of times and it plays out differently each time. I'm using the UPSMON scripts which are excellent to say the least. Yesterday, When I RV'd with my FSG I could see an enemy patrol about 1km north of the position. I called in artillery and managed to get the lot. Completed the mission without firing a single round.
