OK, well I thought it would of been nice to make this a family suprise
My Great Mission Idea is a Mercenary mission and it came from reading several accounts of mercenaries in Bosnia during 92/93.
BACKGROUND INFO:
The group of Islands are in a ethnic war between three groups, similar to that of Bosnia. At the moment I'm unsure of the religeons and names of these groups :-\
PLAYER BACKGROUND:
The player is a ex British PARA and after seeing the fighting on TV decides hes up for the battles and makes his way to Nogovo.
STORYLINE:
CUTSCENE... News reports on the Island to give the player an understanding of what is happening and who they are.
The player starts as a passenger in a cessna coming into land at the amin airport. ON arrival the airport is very busy with people caught up in the war trying to leave, Buses are ferrying people constantly and the roads are covered in people walking, cylcling, drving tractors, mopeds....etc to escape the country.
The players first objective is to make his way to Petrovic and try to find a commander of an elite fighting unit, made famous from their courage on the island of Kolejev. He can get their in many different ways, bus, car, stealing, walking etc..
On the way the road is littered with wrecks bodys and gerenal carnage. Petrovic is a stronghold with checkpoints and soldier everywhere..... a very busy town On arriving at Petrovic he finds the commander....in the local bar drinking with many fighters.
The player does not get accepted in the elite unit, but just after this happens a bomb goes off right outside the bar killing several soldiers. The commander promptly changes his mind and welcomes his new soldier.
NIGHT goes to day and the player wakes up in one of them tower blocks, he must then go and be issued his eqipment at the builders yard thing.
after that the commander tells him to get on the next truck to the front line, which he does. near the front lnie there is a section house which troops use for R&R. On arrival he meets up with the guy in charge who is glad of the palyer experience in Afganistan, seirra Leonne and the Gulf and promotes the player to lead a 8 man section with little military experience. later that day a few guys recce the enemy frontline about 600 meters away for a attack the next morning.
next morning the players section and a ex spanish soldiers section go to attack the enemy (1 more section is held back in case of the assult bogging down), some1 trips a mine and all hell breaks loose.
Both sides should have a mix on uniforms (west, eat, civ, res) and a mix of weapons.
I know I havent covered anythnig cus it would turn out to be a Tom Clancy book if I keep going, but if anyone says.."wat about this" or "that doesnt make sense" etc then feel free to ask.
