Because of your attack on the supply convoy, Russian tanks were forced to retreat south of Lopatino.

Your task is to destroy that logistical HQ...

Ran this mission through last night. Over all a pretty good gun fight in town. The tank battle left us confused more then anything.

Here are some points that need addressing...

Bmps don't unload until shot. In fact that seemed pretty harmless.
There are some patrols in town that are oblivous to the gun fight.
When killing ammo dump, the task said completed  "any".
Ammo dump marker isn't on the ammo dump

When killing ammo dump, the task said completed  "any".

the task is normally created during the conversation with the captain at the base, i'll have a look at it...

The tank battle left us confused more then anything.

I understand; the purpose is just to show the destruction of CDF forces and base, it could be an outro but it won't be shown in a multiplayer game... and I'm not strong in camera scripting, but I'll try something...

Ammo dump marker isn't on the ammo dump

I didn't want to give its exact position...

I'll check about patrols and BMPs...

Thanks again for all your coments and testing!!

I reworked it, adding cutscenes, the mission is now only missing voices!

[Ebden]

If you need voices, I think you'll find some at sparta.  I just contributed to one of their storyline missions, and I heard the addition went over well (of all the voices, not just mine).

Sorry I haven't been around much, fighting cabin fever has me busy on non-computer projects.

Ran this through tonight, its been a while since we had played it.

One thing I really hate is having to gear up all the units. Especially when some of the units come with weapons already(not sure if thats a problem or not half the units have weapons already. Really it would be nice to gear them up in the breifing section.

The respawn at camp, respawns you occasionaly under that tower thing. I'd suggest moving this a bit.

Once we had completed the ammo cache objective we were basicaly stuck in the base. We really didn't know to fall back. I guess we forgot to check the breifing and were over run by tanks.

Not a bad mission and the cut scenes look not bad.

OK, I will give them weapons!
As part of the campaign, i didn't give units weapons as i wish they could start the mission with the equipment they had in the previous one...
but for now, i can give them weapons!

you should have had a radio message from Brodsky telling you to find a secure place, plus briefing changes, but i can had an hint message...

EDIT: changes made, V1.5 uploaded!

V1-6 uploaded!
