New Mission - Trouble at the Dam

[ronht]

hi guys,

 

Just finished this latest mission which is intended as a single player mission.

 

This is intended to be a scramble - jumping into a cold/dark cockpit with the clock working against you to stop a terrorist threat. Time is limited and the opposing forces you face changes randomly.

 

I'll paste the briefing below.

 

While this mission is intended to be a Cold/Dark start, I have also included a Hot start up and running version. You can download one or both at this link:

enjoy

Over the last several months insurgent groups have been threatening to contaminate the reservoir north of Dzhvari. These threats, if successful, would have a devastating effect throughout the entire valley as all the surrounding cities rely on the resources contained within the reservoir.

 

Today, it appears that threat has become a reality. A skirmish has taken place with authorities within the last hour on the northern skirts of Dzhvari and again with security forces at the dam.

 

The conflict north of the city resulted in several dead and we are currently unable to contact security forces stationed at the dam.

 

We have two security forces heading for the damn now but they will not arrive in time to turn back the terrorist threat.

 

Witnesses have reported a bus escorted by a heavily armed group heading up the dam highway. It is believed the bus and truck are filled with toxic chemicals and the insurgents are going to carry out their threat. They MUST be stopped before reaching the dam!

 

 

SCRAMBLE - SCRAMBLE - SCRAMBLE!!!

 

You are to launch immediately, there is no time to re-fuel your Ka50 or re-arm your wingman.

 

You must make every attempt to stop the insurgents before they reach the dam.

 

A spotter team will call updates on the position of the bus.

 

Primary targets are a white and blue civilian bus and other vehicles that are traveling together up the dam highway.

 

The dam highway is heavily traveled, however, because this is a dire situation you are cleared HOT on all traffic on the dam highway. While we want to sustain as little collateral damage as possible, civilian losses have been accepted as a possible result of this operation.

 

Be advised the insurgents have been reported to have mobile SAM's and are using civilian automobiles to transport personnel equipped with manpads.

 

Your wingman is armed only with gunpods and your fuel load is minimal, however, there is no time to waste! Use your wingman in "Over watch" formation or in any capacity you deem necessary and stop those vehicles!

 

Get Going and Good Luck!

Wow, so i just unsuccessfully finished your mission, but holy crap man, i had a grin on my face the whole time! I went in fast like a bat out of hell and to my surprise i met all of al-quada around the corner! I took a lot of ground fire, and several sams came really close to ending me fast, but the terrain (which is awesome) saved my ass in a few tough spots! Im definitally going to play this one a lot! good job! great mission!

 

what is the eta on insurgent success btw?

[Talon]

Wow, very nice mission. Successfully completed it, I like the message at the end when arriving back at the base...nice touch!!!!

 

Thank-you ronht for making these missions.

Your best BS mission yet. I thought I better race up there, hehe. First I hit the comm pole. Next i tried to run the gauntlet, flares blazing. No way. Finnally I stood off and took out everyone I could find, then made it up. In that mission there turned out to be two "buses"---I mean I got the message the bus is down, then I was cleaning up and it appeared again, along with the "halfway up" message, I took taht one out too again I got the messge bus is down. Then I got so excited I crashed going home, hehe.

 

The two buses thing ( I know there are other buses too)--well it could be RL confusion.

 

Anyway, great work, great comms. I was going to bed then saw this..dam fun.

 

PS oh another time I tried to climb around, but you have the ceiling set perfectly--I went totally blind, so there is no way up but the main valley(that I can tell anyway).

Great mission, played it twice now.

 

First time I was spat on by SAM. So badly infact that ejection was not an option due to pilot death.

 

Second time, well.. they got what they deserved. Good job.

 

Edit:

 

Caught me a screenie of the first whoopsie.

 

 

Some harsh words there :( .

Hello,

Would you mind if I posted up the 6 Ka50 COOP version. I edited today.

It is sweet.

Nice mission ronht

[fox_111]

Good mission. I did not had time to try enough time to succed. I just blasted in there to see how hard it was, and it is hard enough!

 

I play full simulation, and spotting the ennemy among the civilians and friendly is hard!

 

I want to keep my logbook clean of Friendly fire.

Excellent mission - and nice choice of scenery too :)

[fox_111]

After many tried, and watching what I did wrong in trackview, I managed to complete the mission without a scratch.

 

The hardest part is localising the right bus.

 

Every time the spotter talk for the first time, it startle me enough to jump on my chair...

Great job! I liked the mission much - quite easy but I guess everybody tries it two times - first "head on" and then second - more relaxed :)

I made some nice screenshots to remember :)

 

Be careful, big size
