My Mistake Campaign Development Version

The Story is about a grandfather, who is very sick and gets his family around him to tell them about a mistake he did in his life, which he wants to talk about before his death.
He starts with the last few days before his mandatory military service where the player visits friends behind the Iron Curtain in East Germany.
Then war erupts and the player is thrown into the fight to save his and his comrades lives and their country from an invasion with unknown intentions.
After this the player experiences the whole military career of the grandpa and discovers what he meant with the words „I made a horrible mistake“...

Currently in the WIP release there are 3 missions with more to come as they are created into a playable state. None of these are 100% finished, which I do besides finishing the other missions, but they should be mostly bug free and are only lacking some immersive touch on like more AI civilians or more ambient conversations...

The campaign is nowhere near finished, and I didn´t start with creating it from the first mission on as these are missions where big parts of Altis and Tanoa need to be decorated, which I started with, but isn´t finished and needs more time.
Also for now I skip everything that happens before the conflict with the GDR (about 10 missions, mostly training and immersion focused) as this part of the campaign (the second part) is planned out completely and I used the first mission of it to experiment with some mechanics that I want to use throughout the whole campaign and continued from there.
What makes my campaign special is that it is a really realistic story that I develop in cooperation with a military advisor to keep it realistic on a strategic as well as tactical level so the player could be fully immersed into the life of the grandpa.
I try to build as much randomness in the missions as possible, in one mission there are over 40 different possibilities how a conversation could unfold according to how an atillery barrage hits a target and that also changes the next mission on this point.
Also there are often multiple possible ways to complete the mission.
Because of this it takes long for the missions to be completed, but I think it´s worth it if the mission is better afterwards.

-Realistic and immersive campaign
-Many random elements
-Story changing corresponding to player and AI actions
-Custom dialogues
-Very long campaign (story spans over roughly 50 years) with potentially over 100 missions
-Voice acting and cutscenes between and during the missions (planned for the future)
-Training missions to teach you what you need to know (coming in the future)
-German and English localization (no english localization in the second mission, but it could come soon)

-Day one of a new time
-Consolidation
-Survive

Due to the massive scale of the campaign any help is greatly appreciated as currently I create this campaign alone with some help in testing, scripting and localization, but basically alone this would take forever to finish.
Primarily needed is help in mission creation, scripting, testing, voice acting and localization in other languages.
It doesn´t matter what you could do, if you want to contribute we find a role for you.

If you find any bugs feel free to share them, so I could fix them.
Also if you have suggestions for improvements please share them so I could implement them.

I hope you enjoy this campaign.
