Maybe this could be our next mission... it looks popular on coop servers. I don't know much more about it.

Description:
Your goal is it to free randomly picked targets (up to 21) from all enemy forces.


Features:
- 21 main targets (you can select 4 up to 21 targets, 10 is default). Each time the mission starts target order gets picked randomly.
- 22 side missions. Resolving a side mission brings your team extra vehicles like A10, M1, Cobra, etc. (randomly picked)
- Small main target missions (destroy something, free some hostages, etc. Your team can get a Stryker or Humvee)
- 2 Mobile Respawns (medic MTW)
- Mobile respawns and the support trucks can be transported by by your blackhawks (essential feature, fly over it and select Lift Vehicle in the action menu)
- 2 engineers who can repair and refuel the blackhawks and the mobile respawns
- Artillery operator who can call artillery strikes every six minutes
- Rescue operator who can rescue hostages and bring them to your base)
- The driver of a mobile respawn MTW or the pilot of a blackhawk can create/drop ammocrates
- Blackhawks, mobile respawn MTWs and the support trucks respawn
- You can teleport to the mobile respawns or the flag at base if you choose "Teleport" in the action menu if you're near them
- Sometimes if a main target is cleared the enemy starts a counterattack
- Enemy KA50 and Mi17 sometimes appears. The Mi17 drops paratroopers
- A status dialog is available at the mobile respawns and the blackhawks that shows some information about the current target and sidemission
- Some small AI features like dropping smoke if they get attacked and more


Installation:
Extract the pbo file to your ArmA\MPMissions folder.


Change log:
v 2.21:
- There is now a team of four engineers. Engineers are now able to load static weapons like D30, DSHKM and AGS30 on a 5to truck (open, MG, two available at base). Drive close to a static weapon to load it, get out of the truck and go to where you want the weapon placed (enhanced version of a script from -eutf-Myke).
- If a player lost connection or got kicked when he transported a mobile respawn with a blackhawk, the mobile respawn wasn't available for respawning or teleporting anymore, fixed.
- It isn't possible to drop "millions" of ammocrates anymore. A player has to wait two minutes before he can drop a new ammocrate.
- If a sidemission target is an officer or any other AI, it doesn't stand somewhere in the open anymore. Instead the AI will be in a bunker or in a near building.
- There are now 40 sidemissions available. New ctf sidemission type integrated (bring back a flag to your base)
- Status dialog is now available for every player outside a vehicle.
- Integrated a new button in the status dialog to set the viewdistance.
- Reduced the ammount of ammunition and weapons in the ammocrates.
- Slightly reduced the strength of the AI.
- Rescue specialist doesn't exist anymore, instead there are now two artillery operators who can fire artillery strikes independently of each other and are able to rescue the hostages.
- and many bugfixes...

v 2.19:
- Increased the number of the sidemissions to 30 !
- As soon as a main target is clear, a flag gets created and you can parajump from this flag with ManDays HALO script
- Bugfixes and internal changes

v 2.17:
- Fixed a bug that prevented spawning of the enemy choppers (KA and Mi17).

v 2.16:
- Fixed jet and chopper reload pads at base
- It is now possible to transport all vehicles except M1, T72 and Shilka with the Blackhawks
- The engineer can now repair and refuel all vehicles
- The engineer is now able to flip tanks or bmps that are lying on the wrong side if there is a repair truck near him (about 20 meters, thanks to the folks at GDT for this idea)
- And some internal updates...

Ok.. i just did a 1 min test... looks sweet..

One target town set at a time...(there are side missions)..

No Ranks.. i think all vehicles are usable.. but you need to get points as a team to get some.. i.e Tanks.. (not too sure how it works)

You can airlift all but the heaviest vehicles.. i.e Tanks & AAV

You get mobile spawns.. in the shape on Medic Armoured Vehicles.. these can be airlifted..

Here is me doing just that..

Yup - server hosts the mission, and the clients download it. Although you can have the mission yourself, I'm not sure it's a good idea, in case the server admin changes the mission files in some way.

So what mods and whatnot do you guys play with? I actually got my hands on a copy of ArmA recently. But it kinda borked so gonna reinstall it.

ECS, armaeffects are mainly what i'm using.

You get NO AI help... it looks like this will REQUIRE teamwork and a few of us being on at the same time.. migth need an organised night of it...

the current target in the mission has loads of infantry and several pieces of armour, so 2 or 3 people will not be able to take the town.

we are going to need quite a few people to launch an attack from different directions I think........

Ok.. i was having a wee play today.. doing a side mission.."kill an important General"...

well i've killed everyone in the area.. and cant find the General.. i think its bugged.

Not sure if the same side mission will still be active.. but if you play and it is.. i've warned you. Area seems empty.. Side mission is in the Tres Vallies area...

Are you sure you can't hear him? If you recall the other night I was looking for a prime minister, but couldn't see him. He was hiding in a downed tree and was completely invisible unless you were the the tree too.

hmm it was in a wooded area... and i did pop flares.. but maybe he is hiding in a tree.

I wasn't on when the above occurred :/
