Description

This is a co-op prisoner breakout mission, recommended for 4-12 players. A remake of my earlier Operation Freedom Hawk.

An American pilot was shot down and captured during a recent bombing raid. It falls on you, soldiers of the Royal Lao Army, to break him out of captivity and return him to friendly territory.

Replayability. You’ve only got one target location, so you can choose whatever approach you can think of. Beware, as the jungle is hostile and full of dangers.

Patrols and trackers may drop intel which you can utilise to your benefit. If you’re up for it, pack a satchel charge and go hunting for the radio tower. It’ll make your getaway easier.

Requires S.O.G. Prairie Fire DLC. No mod dependencies.

fantastic mission, faced an issue with arma jank loading the pilot aboard the sampan where Pathet Lao's Chris Kyle shot him right off my back heheh

Suggestion:
-Allow for some sort of heliu support at least for transportation

Unfortunately the cdlc revive functions only allow loading wounded into vehicles with available "CargoNoFFV" seats. Once you pick up the prisoner, the nearest suitable vehicle within 300 meters will be highlighted to players with a 3D task icon. In Freedom Hawk Redux, this may be a sampan, any BTR variant, or a Z-157 transport. One of these has been pre-placed and will be highlighted unless somehow destroyed beforehand.

Air America is reserved for booked passengers with a valid boarding pass, the RLA is not meant to exfil Laos. I did forget to extend the kicking off courtesy to AI though, lol!

Just completed it hand had big fun. My latest change to SOG AI includes spawning some river boat traffic, which helped my run for the bird, as a PBR was keeping charlie busy. Had 2 issues: 1) I tried loading the POW in the boats on river edge east of compound and the action appeared, and after completing action timer was given hint "no empty cargo seats available" (or something like that). Could not load him on to boats. And at exfil I successfully loaded him on the chopper, and my 2 surviving AI boarded, but I was unable to board and was left behind. Still great fun. Here's the last couple minutes: https://youtu.be/w_XpPtIcoiE

Cool!

From a player's perspective, there are a few subtle changes.

- Prisoner is now incap and has to be taken back in this state.
- Lesser immediate enemy presence at camp
- General quality-of-life, instructions on-the-go, speedier exfil options
- Changes to the optional side objective, including heavier penalty for ignoring it

There may even be an easter egg for a wandering mind :)

What's the difference between Op Freedom Hawk, and Freedom Hawk Redux? Inquiring minds want to know... :)
