In 1 collection by killjoy
Czechoslovakian Spring
5 items
Description
Czechoslovakia
Ustecky Region
March 14th 1987

Less than 24 hours after the attack on Polna, A recon element from Nemesis Troop crosses the Elbe River, to seek out and destroy a AAA Battery. In an attempt to pave the way for air support in coming operations

This is my fourth mission in the collection Czechoslovakian Spring, set not long after "Soviet Hail" which is also on the steam workshop. This mission is an SF type mission, involving reconnaissance and sabotage.

Feed back whether positive or negative is always helpful. I can't improve unless i know what i'm doing right or wrong with anything.

NOTE: SELECT YOUR GEAR DURING BRIEFING! Can't stress that enough.

A3 version:
Stable.

Addons required:


East vs West 0.9 [www.armaholic.com]

My mission statement

Mission, addon, and script makers really don't get enough recognition for all their efforts. I've been playing the series since the OFP demo came out, and the custom content which was released almost from day one was amazing, and after making my first proper mission after all these years i finally appreciate the time, effort and utter frustration (especially getting scripts to work) that goes into making a mission let alone an addon or a script.

Although after the constant play testing, making sure everything works as it should and knowing every detail of your mission is enjoyable, at the end of your finished product there's no more real enjoyment or surprises to be had. The more people that play what I've made, the happier i'll be to know that what i can't enjoy anymore has been (hopefully) enjoyed by the many people that have put so much effort into making the community what it is, and has been for the past 15 odd years.

I tried to do as much research as possible before i start, example regarding this mission - looking for information on the 2nd Cavalry Regiment, the Soviet 22nd Guards, the regions and town names of Czechoslovakia, proper radio protocol - which in the end might not be 100% accurate, but i think it makes a more enjoyable and immersive experience.

So please play, rate, criticize and encourage because in the end i want people to enjoy what I've made, and not just get the numbers if you know what i mean.

Thanks.

Very good scenario without any failures. Tanks man.

@Mandaloin Also, East Vs West mod has a lot of broken and outdated stuff in it now, which is why the NVG's weren't compatible with the current A3 build. I'll hopefull replace the EVW mod with an upcoming CUP Cold War expansion.

@Mandaloin Yeah they were disabled via script and used SUD_NVG's because they were more appropriate (These are the East vs West NVGS but were never coded in to be used with his units).

I just went ahead and replaced them with vanilla NVG's for you and updated the mission.

Please keep in mind that's the only thing I tested and after the many A3 updates in the past couple of years since these were released I can't gurantee everything will work. Scripting language has changed a fair bit. I don't really have time to update them at the moment due to life commitments.

@SlavicVapeLord Thanks mate, really appreciate the kind words. I put a lot of hours into making them and i'm glad so many people have enjoyed them.

This mission was amazing, this series has been great so far im about to start 05, these actually deserve an award for the effort and detail to everything, only if every scenario was this enjoyable on arma 3 unfortunately its maybe 1 in 50 that you will find a decent scenario, these have all just been so damn good. I would love to see another episode in this collection, or possibly a new collection on chernarus in the nw airfield, I wish I could make missions this good. Once again great job m8.

Night vision does not work. I even used the SSCM mod to give myself vanilla NVGs and it still doesn't work. They must be disabled via script? I can't play the mission without them working.

You cannot play/edit this mission; it is dependent on downloadable content that has been deleted.sud_gw_u, SUD_ZSU, sud_ural, SUD_GW_V, SUD_BMP2, SUD_T72, SUD_GW_AB, SUD_MI8

Nice set of missions, well documented. I suggest IMHO that you should add an enemy encounter on mission 2, so as it doesn't look like a bacic Arma tutorial.
Thanks for your work! :steamhappy:
