BACKGROUND STORY


NATO backed guerrilla group FIA made an uneasy peace agreement after a grueling civil war one year ago. The peace agreement states that all NATO and FIA forces must stay on the eastside of Tafos-Poliako Line Despite of this the Altian government has accused that NATO's ALTFOR forces have been secretly sending reconnaissance patrols and drones over The Tafos-Poliako Line. CSAT has been making demands for Altian goverment for the past six months. CSAT demands that they are allowed to establish a naval base at Kavala in order to secure their trade routes at the Mediterranean sea. The Altian goverment has been reluctant of CSAT 's demands and accuses CSAT of creating unnecessary tension around the Mediterranean sea.

One week ago CSAT 2nd Carrier battle group launched a surprise attack in order to seize the control of Kavala. AAF quickly sent their 4th Combat group to push CSAT forces back to the sea. Two hours ago a NATO MQ-A4 Greyhawk reconnaissance drone was shot down near Kavala Cambat Zone. ALTFOR HQ does not want the drone to fell in to the hands of AFF or CSAT forces as the wreck would prove the fact that NATO has broken the terms of AFF-FIA-NATO peace agreement.
21st of June 2025. Kavala is burning while AFF and CSAT fight to seize control of the city. One hour before dawn SAS Bravo team is sent to Kavala in order locate and destroy the lost drone…

2/2

These regular detachements do not know about the existance of the player group nor have they been scripted to stalk the player (of course if they notice the player the AI might decide to pursue the player on its own). The regular detachments simply keep trying to gain ground against the other attacking army and the player group is not their primary objective. You could think that the player group is just a curiosity in a middle of a bigger battle.

There are however a few "stalkers groups" which only spawn once when specific events occur. These stalkergroups do not respawn. I had noticed earlier that they are a bit too strong. Also their ability to pinpoint the player group was a bit too accurate. So I updated the scenario and reduced their strength. Also their ability to pinpoint the player group is not as accurate anymore.

The scenario is very hard when playing alone, but it should be a bit more manageable now. :steamhappy:

Thanks for your feedback! :steamthumbsup:

The "regular detachments" keep spawning inorder to keep the combat between Opfor and Resistance ongoing. This means you cannot just wait for the Opfor and Resistance to eliminate one another completely.

The detachments have fixed spawnpoints which means they should not spawn next to the player unless the player stands in the next to the spawnpoint. The spawnpoints themselves are far away from the center of Kavala. If the enemy groups have spawned outside their spawnpoints and at the location of a player, then it must have been a bug as it should not happen nor has it ever happened to me while testing.

And anyway, thanks for all your hard work! In addition, I really like some of your missions and soon I will complete them all and take them to the collection of the best works! :steamhappy::steamthumbsup:

Maybe I'll write my review...
I liked the mission at the beginning, such a beautiful battle around, it feels like immersion ... I managed to go through and find the UAV without loss, I almost did not use saves in veteran mode. But after undermining the target, everything went bad, I'm upset:
1) Near the detachment and the leader, detachments began to appear under their noses, and to pursue even behind the folds of the terrain without having information how a fucking miracle (
2) The persecution continued even beyond the border line.

Such a respawn always near the player makes my skills and all the work on stealth and skills useless. This is disgusting, the end of the mission turned into an endless Rambo style, I got upset and did not even continue when I was killed far beyond the green line by some spotter who came from the fucking sky.

Let me know if you fix the mediocre respawn, it's interesting to play even if the position of the UAV is always different.

No the waves won't stop :steamhappy:. You'll just have to destroy the drone and pull back behind the Tafos-Poliako line.

I want to know! Can red and green ever run out?
I avoided contact the first week of penetration! But now the city center is swarming with them like cockroaches. I have already collected all the best weapons and body armor. My fighters already really want to go home to mom and dad! When will these Russian-Iranian Greek waves end?

Get us out of here and drop an atomic bomb on this mess already! :steamthumbsup::steamhappy::steambored:

Incredible scenario, one of my favourites from Partaholic. One of the best mission makers around.

Update: Medic ability for all players (medic has 3 x multiplier). Mission also now fails if all players are KIA at the same time.
