MercInc server

[zaelu]

Hello Everyone.

 

I want to place a "note" here about a server I run almost non stop or it should run nonstop unless it crashes and I'm unable due to work to restart it.

 

the name is:

 

 

============ Merc.Inc. =====================

 

 

It's a dedicated machine. It does only this and has no human user is on it.

 

The configuration is so-so... Core2Duo at 3GHz with 4GB of ram and a network speed that should peak half of gigabyte per second. It is hosted in Romania so people from Europe should have decent pings.

 

I'm curious how it holds more users. Currently has 20 slots opened.

 

So... if some would want to play a mission with Migs and Sabres in a sort of Mig Alley sort of scenario you are welcome.

 

The server settings are almost full real meaning it has externals only on own aircraft, no icons, no map icons.

 

There are 2 slots for each team for Combined Arms should anyone would want to take the wheel on some tank.

 

The only mission (for now) can be played as a single mission or coop or head on multiplayer.

 

You can try to capture the opposite airfield which will take around 3 hours or you can hunt AI enemies.

 

so... the briefing:

 

 

 

 

Welcome to MercInc Server.

This machine runs only the DCS Server and should have little down time.

 

Don't TK, Don't damage your team. Automatic Kick Ban is in order.

 

===== MISSION =====

 

It's time to fight for Communism or Capitalism

 

In this mission Red communist forces are opposing Blue capitalist forces in an almost head on situation.

 

Note that the names communist and capitalist are just to motivate you while playing. Anything good has something bad in it (at least when is too much) and vice-versa.

 

=== The Supplies ===

 

Each side has a Main Airfield. Gudauta for RED and Kutaisi for Blue

 

Each side has a Supply Airfield. Sukhumi for RED and Senaki for BLUE.

 

At the Supply Airfields... supplies arrive from central home countries... say... by magic and from here supply columns (2 for each side with respawn if destroyed) march towards the factories to supply the war machines. Also from here air supplies for BLUE and sea supplies for RED are going to Main Airfields (Gudauta for RED and Kutaisi for BLUE)

 

Each side has a factory that produces armor columns (3 each!). RED factory is in Sukhumi Cirty. BLUE factory is in Zugdidi. Note that destruction of the factories plays no role but you can do it for fun.

 

Each factory produces more ground attack columns if:

 

1.First attack column reaches the opposing ground forces somewhere in between and the factory receives it's first supply from Supply Airfield via supply column.

 

Note that for RED the Supply airfield is closer to front line while for BLUE the factory is closer to front line.

 

2. A third wave of attack ground forces (3rd column) leaves the factories if second supply column from supply airfield reaches the factory.

 

Note that although the supply columns have respawn they are slowed down if destroyed and respawn thus the ground forces are starved of enforcement and risk being destroyed by enemy ground forces, especially if they have reinforcements.

 

Now some numbers. For whom it may concern :) .

 

The main airfields have initially under 20 planes. Do note that there are AI flights also that consume those.

The main airfields have in vicinity warehouses for fuel,ammo and planes. The resupply from them is almost immediate but is not a big supply.

The Airfields warehouses are destroyable. If all warehouses are destroyed... your team will starve soon!

The Airfields Warehouses are linked to the Warehouses located on the Supply airfields that are way more rich having something like 50 planes and much fuel and ammo... BUT! They are also destroyable!

 

The Supply airfields can repair planes and also get back the planes into the warehouse at the back of the Que.

 

For simplicity the supply line from Supply Airfield to Main Airfield is virtual and the planes and ships that are described for doing the supply task are just for shows. But you can attack and destroy them if you find them and have fun with it.

 

====

 

Other notes:

 

-Both sides have the same type of armor columns and supply columns because of lack of Korea material (there are some mods by Lilkiki but not yet widely supported by community)

- To identify if a column is friend or foe use common sense to understand which direction is marching or look if a column fires at you... :D DON'T destroy friendlies, risk of kick and ban! (if there are problems I can unban people)
