OutroSpelling errors in the outro text. Camera is nice. Don't know what "semper fi" is, it's a line displayed towards the end.
Long KnifeIntroFine, but weird that instead of taking the APC the communist leader takes the jeep
. Thought that I saw soldiers with backpacks in the jeep, looked like American ones, probably SLA and US ones are very similar.
BriefingWith the improved 1st person view in 1.05 this will be an even more interesting mission than it would be pre-1.05. It's the first time that I take a look at the gear selection, weapon: SAW.
#2 a LAW + G36. The other teammates get default gear.
MissionMission intro is a bit dark but I can see enough of what's going on, it's the insertion. Don't like the length, for me the camera moved too slow when it moved towards the summit.
Nice chatter going on, improves the atmosphere, but as always would voice overs be really good. Few typos though, like informations instead of just information. Anyway, orders: vee, don't fire. We move close towards the village and I move my men into proper firing positions. Four regular squads seems like a huge opposing force. We are prone in a line watch the village, with a few men watching the flanks. With me men into position I move towards the rocks / haystack don't know at the moment and order to open fire.
The enemy squads there out in the open didn't have a chance against my whole squad firing at once. I moved into position and helped me squad when a few more soldiers ran to defend the western edge of town. Four men are ordered towards the town, five wait at the previous position. Deeper into town I meet with a few more enemies and they are disposed off.
Some special ops are moving into action, suspicious
. Anyway, I move the rest of my squad towards the shed with the MG in front of it and prepare the other side of town for my squad taking out two more enemies. In the process I've lost a total of one soldier so far, which is a pretty good rate of KIA/kills. Some well positioned enemies in the barn with the cows
.
I move my whole squad in from the right while I go left. We slowly make our way towards the hotel and other houses, taking no casualties but using up a lot of ammo of the SAW trying to supress the enemy soldiers. In the hotel I noticed enemy soldiers, a lot so I guessed that there was something there. Gunview on and let's take 'em on. After clearing them all I get a nice conversatino by radio and with the captured officer. Nice plot, but thought that something like this would happen. Oh, the conversation with the officer should kick ina bit later, right now I can't read it as it's on the background of the radio chatter.
Before the chopper can land I shoot the pilots so it crashes about 5m, no explosion they all get out but are an easy prey for my SAW. Only 20 bullets left after killing all of them though.
Damn, shouldn't have shot all the tires of possible escape vehicles, damn. Find a truck at the western side and move out. #3,9 didn't want to get in, ah well left them behind and moved on. So did the poet die there?
DebriefingRegular problem, objectives not ticked off. Don't know what's causing that.
OutroSome typos. Good music, text and camerawork. Nice end of the campaign, well done.
