"Commander, we have managed to locate the mercenary leader responsible for the destruction of our fortress in the Atlas Mountains.
We have tracked him to a desert region of southern Algeria, guarded by a heavy GLA presence.
From what intel we have, he is extremely paranoid and is looking to flee to central Africa.
We cannot risk allowing him to flee by attacking his army with brute force, so you will personally lead a squad of stealthy SAS commandos for this mission.
They will need to infiltrate the GLA base and access their transmissions in order to pinpoint the mercenary general's location.
Once we know where he is, you must find a way to kill him without having your cover blown.
You will also provide sniper support for the SAS team for this mission, so make sure you assist the commandos anyway they need.
Good luck, commander."

Objective 1: Get a commando close to the Radio Station.

Objective 2: Await further orders in the field.

Hints:

The GLA will have plenty of stealth-detecting Observation Vans, be very careful when approaching the base.

Certain Stinger Sites and Duska Nests can be disabled if you snipe them, this should make the mission easier.

If you ever decide to invade Russia, for the love of God, bring some warm clothes. We don't want you to blame the "evil Russian winter" when you get crushed, like everyone else who tried.



This was so great! Can't wait for the whole campaign. biggrin.gif

Excellent map, RedDeadSmeg. I hope upcoming campaign will be as good as this mission.

I have some comments on this mission hovewer.

1) There are no music. Is that intentional?
2) If Observation Van with Technicals close to it detects your commandos, it's a certain mission restart. Commandos just will not have enough time to run away before they are killed. Observation Van with infantry, on the contrary, is mostly harmless.
3) This mission would be more cool if set in the nighttime IMO.

Thanks for the feedback Zxcvbnm.

1)No music is a personal preference. I choose to listen to my own music when playing games, as such I've never script in-game music in any of my missions.

2)The Technical/Observation combo is why it's not a good idea to keep you're commandos grouped together, you only need one to survive until the end along with the sniper.
The infantry/Observation is a bit of a pain as they don't usually attack the commandos if they're detected. I might play around and see what I can do before the campaign is released.

3) There's a reason why this mission isn't set at night which you'll find out in mission 4. It has something to do with the ending of this mission wink.gif

What? You thought I'd spoil it here? No chance, you will just have to wait!

Actually on the second part of the "Technical/Observation" combo if you just look at their path you can order your demo team to plant explosives on that path and blow em up when they come in, on a side note I've played the map by systematically destroying everything i could feasibly destroy it's probably why the GLA knew i was there

Well done, nice mission, great effort biggrin.gif

The ending was quite a surprise!

Anyway, I would like to ask how many missions will there be in the whole campaign?

Good point, this last mission is a big one so definitely don't want to lose that one.
