Black Shark 2 GOW phase 7.4

Hello.

 

I wanted to ask - how the hell I can make mission ATO A7.4 from Georgian Oil War campaign?

Mission task is to escort three MI-8 carrying Special Forces which will assault Command Post, and then mission will be completed.

 

Initial route is fine, it evades main forces in the city, but then it go through small village which always contains ZU-23 AAA hidden behind the trees (it shots down 1-2 MI8 passing him above)

For me this ZU-23 is placed very unfair for player, because flying desired FP, its hidden behind trees and invisible even when he is shooting. I had to divert from FP to could shot him down.

 

But that is not main problem. There is also SA-8 Osa in the area, which have range to engage MI-8s. We start at FARP with engines OFF, it takes me 3-5 minutes to spool everything up, and I have a very little time to engage that OSA before MI-8 passes by.

 

To add more, there are also another ZU-23 on the command post and some MANPADS. When MI-8s are evading OSA and ZU-23 from village, they are flying to main forces which easily shoot them down. :cry: Their drop point is made EXACTLY on Command Post area... Who was thinking about that? That they will deploy there AND nobody will shoot them? Stupid :joystick:

 

Developers of that Campaign could do 2 things to make this mission possible to do.

1. Add script on radio like in A10C missions, to approve MI-8s to enter and deploy Special Forces. Before They deploy forces, they could wait at holding point, before enemy base.

2. Make deploy point BEFORE the base (soldiers could have set route, like in other missions to move to enemy base). Then the task would be more possible - we would have to destroy enemy BTRs and MTBLs, other stuff which is dangerous for allies.

 

But actually this mission is IMPOSSIBLE to do WITHOUT labels ON. And I don't want to turn on labels, its extremly unrealistic :noexpression:

 

Could anyone write some possibilites to make that mission possible? thanks. :helpsmilie:

Regards.
