Operation Flashpoint: Ukraine Rising

Disclaimer:

I made this mission a few months prior to the invasion of Ukraine as a what if scenario. Like with many people in the world we did not expect this to happen. As i spent considerable time making this, i thought i would release it on the workshop.

I condone all wars and of course am very dismayed and upset at what is going on presently. I don't wish for anyone to use this as training material for the real war and it is not intended to be so. Like many scenarios on the workshop and stuff i have published for ARMA they are either fictional or historical and that's the way it should be.

Like with other video games out there e.g. DCS, SQUAD etc. PLEASE DO NOT USE THIS AS FOOTAGE PRETENDING IT IS THE REAL WAR.

CDF faction was used for compatibility reasons and also because it should have been fictional as explained above.

Setting:

The two armies are from RHS, using the CDF faction (representing Ukraine) and the RAF (representing the russian armed forces). Chernarus is the backdrop of the combat area and represents a fictional area of ukraine. Flags best represent the different regions and areas.

Scenario:

The Russians have invaded and control the airfield and most of the regions around the Donetsk and Lughansk areas. They are now intending to move in to further control the area.

Play as a commanding officer of the RAF - Colonel Igor Vopotev and prepare your forces to undertake the offensive.

Play as a regular NCO of the CDF (Ukrainian army) - Sergent Nikita Yagudin and gather some troops and move to defend the frontlines.

The civilians have hostilities against the occupiers and are in support of the defenders. They may take up arms, so on both sides ensure that any destruction on property is kept to a minimum.

Guidance:

The mission is dynamic and persistant meaning that battles and units are never the same. It changes everytime the mission is restarted and the frontlines shift as territory is gained.

It is best to play the mission on LAN/Multiplayer so that respawns work and it is a bit more optimised.

Zeus is active for both commanders. It is mainly used for debugging and testing.

Dont forget to pick up a backpack from the crate (its the standard russian RHS one). You will need this if you want to play as high command, command/recruit local troops and requisition supplies to the frontlines.

The mission uses ALIVE, so please make sure you are familiar with how this operates. It is actually a very good mod, if not probably the best feature in ARMA, and i am surprised nobody uses it much.

Other:

I dont intend to make amendments to this as i dont have time to play ARMA anymore! Please do give feedback and i might consider it in a future release/update.

FINAL:

I am keeping the comments open, mainly to talk about the mission itself and feedback. If it gets too political or abusive i will turn off comments entirely. Please try to keep the comments in English - many thanks.
