I love this mission but ....................................................................
I follow the commander to the area below the hill with the mortars. (BTW, he runs so fast that other AIs are constantly shouting WHERE ARE YOU?). We kill a few and loose a few there and then we back out, without achieving the first objective, which is neither checked green or ex-ed red.
Strolling our way through the jungle, we come across quite a few firefights, especially one good one with lots of action.
After that, we get the order to retreat back to the LZ. Getting there, our commander moves just north of the LZ and it's a good thing he did. Looking back at the LZ, there were Charlies all over the place and we were spotted.
I took one bullet and the rest of my squad was dead.
Unfortunately, that seems to be the end of the story. No evac. No way to get back to base. I'm a lost Joe! :'(
There should have been triggers to ex off the main first objective. We failed and we moved out.
In the second objective, if the trigger is to eliminate every last Charlie in the LZ, I just won't make it. There should be a trigger that checks if I'm the last one alive to call in the Hueys with their machine guns blaring to kill and chase off retreating enemies at the LZ and to let me be picked up and evacuated.
Then once back at base alone, I should be given the disciplinary hearing I deserve. ;D
Please don't stop improving this mission. It's got so much going for it.
