[SP/COOP-5] Bitter Memories

Mission Description: 1985, World War III, Iceland. A desperate group of ill equipped Icelandic rebels attempt to destroy Soviet Tunguska units.

Features: Strong emphasis on mission atmosphere using voice recordings and character chatter, early time of day and bad weather, weapons that ArmA 2 provides but are rarely used, like the Saga. Mission briefing takes different approach and is worded in past tense, as if the mission is a narrative memory of a war veteran who fought in an imaginary Soviet occupation of Iceland. The players will recreate this warrior's story.

Known Bugs: Yet to be found.

Credits: Thanks to Sander, galzohar and SFC.ITZHAK for patiently helping a novice mission maker, and for Tamar for kindly providing a recording of her beautiful voice.

Notes: Although the mission file indicates a coop mission it can be placed in \missions folder and will work as a Single Player mission as well.

Hope you will enjoy it as this is my first mission. The mission is hosted on the CiA coop server. For server details please visit www.ciahome.net.

Regards, Variable.

Fixed! new version 1.1 is now available.

Change log:

- Changed messages corresponding to voice files from Side and Group chat to Global chat so all players on MP will be able to see them, at least until I master the directSay command

- Vodnik route is synced to insertion truck arrival to make insertion easier

- Relocated some area triggers

- Replaced UAZ driver's AK-107 with an AK-74 to keep the mission true to the 80's Soviet weaponry
