What I would like to see is a option at the end of the mission to save the battle field as a new miz. file. This would alow you to creat a second mission with the left over targets not destroyed, And add reinforcments moving in to help after the first mission. This would be like a mopup mission and previntion of new forces in the area. Wile frendly ground forces move in to take the area/airbase and so on..
As for the A-10 load out in FC2 the standard ground crew loads are very lacking. There is a weapons mod out that alowes you to have a greater choice of loads. And if you want to take it a bit further creat your own loads in that mod to sute your own needs. I mostly creat the missions my Mercenaries fly and add the best load out for the mission, Or I edit the mission just befor hosting it. Per each pilots loadout request.
