Instant Action sillyness

[Malefic Rage]

Hello. I've come across quite a few bizzaire scenarios from the instant action generator and was wondering what kind of experiences other players have been having.

 

Perhaps the best example was an instant action mission the game generated where each side started off with a dozen helos which all beelined towards the enemy AA and were shot down by SAM within several minutes. My side had an F/A-18 which was tasked with CAP while 'armed' with nothing but three transport pods and subsequently attempted to take down an enemy SAM emplacement with guns. What made me chuckle was the damaged KA-50 where, instead of ejecting, the AI pilot simply spiraled higher and higher into the stratosphere. Perhaps he figured a bit higher and he could dock with the ISS? As for ground units, most of them just sat around doing nothing. Two or three had some seemingly arbitrary nav waypoints but that was all.

 

Regrettably, I didn't record a track.

interesting to say the least! But IMHO you witnessed the first instant action psychological warfare mission... all of the units were given LSD before the action.

Well that gave me a chuckle imagining that battlefield. More instant action insanity reports please!
