Description
CSAT airborne forces are conducting surprise operation to capture Malden. Join the AAF forces trying to control the situation while the sky seems to be falling on their heads.
In this scenario, you will play the role of the commander of an AFV (Mora IFV or M113A2DK, more on this below) belonging to the AAF forces. Your goal will be to defeat the CSAT forces near the towns of Houdan and Dourdan.

The enemy will try to gain the advantage using attack and transport helicopters while you will be able to call in reinforcements in the form of infantry squads, MG teams, MANPADS, and even additional AFVs. The ensuing battle will be large and multidimensional.

NO MODS OR DLC REQUIERED.

This scenario does not require any mods unless you want to play with M113A2DK.

Optional use of M113A2DK
If you desire to play with M113A2 you can do so by installing CDLC Global Mobilization and the mod Extra - Altis Armed Forces.
When launching mission with those conditions met AAFs base IFV the Mora will be replaced with M113A2DK.
Be aware that this puts mission into something of a hard mode because as fun as M113A2DK and it's fast firing 25mm is it's not as good of a overall performer as Mora.

Procedural generation is used in the mission to make it fresh and interesting on every playthrough.

The smaller positions occupied by CSAT and the location of their soldiers in the two main towns, as well as the behavior of the helicopters and paratroopers dropped from them, are random and different in each playthrough.


COOP mode is available for up to 12 players.

This mission takes somewhere between 30-45 minutes to complete.

really cool scenario (played in SP), only issues are that helis attack all in the first ten minutes, it would be a lot better if they were called in a few at a time like a counter attack after assaulting/taking the main objectives, and while i do like to have to id targets to not get civilians in the crossfire some are (or end up) in places where your oly option is to dismount and go in with your rifle, some, expecially those in the secodary strongholds have no reason to be there, actualy ended up failing the mission due to warcrimes, at least it was in typical AAF fashion.

Just beat this mission in 45 minutes exactly (!) and I agree with Cuervo Celestial, there seems to be too many helicopters in SP. Other than that small critique, a good fun armor crew mission. Looking forward to trying it in COOP with friends. :steamthumbsup:

There is too much helicopters waves in my opinion, I guess that is made to be played coop instead of SP maybe so it could be that is more balanced than I perceived it if you play it with others.

Didn't finished it since my SP save got deleted when I started the MP version to check how coop slots were prepared.

Still, I had a lot of fun in this mission, thanks you a lot for making it! The function to ask for reinforcements is yours? Its very well done too. My congrats.

Just finished it today (with Mora). Amazing. Smooth, no bugs, even the saves thankfully won't break the mission.

Your missions are always a blast to play.

These kinds of missions are what ArmA is made for. Open, immersive, combined warfare.
Where you feel like you're *in there*, a cog in the machine, and yet still making difference.
