Ok, should be fixed now. Had to re-zip the files, guess the last one was corrupted.
  Thanks for the heads up.

The new intro worked fine for me FC. 

Very nice Intro....now I just gotta figure an ambush for those dang T-72's

The new intro worked fine for me FC. 

I could hug you. Thanks for testing that again! I'm just happy it's working. Hopefully that's sorted for everyone.

As far as the T-72s go, they're at a severe disadvantage inside the town. If you let them get in there, and keep your men safe, you can pop around corners - fire - and disappear pretty easily. Another good way is to take advantage of the mines in the weapons selection, and pick up an M136 from one of the ammo crates one you've placed the mines in strategic locations.

Thanks again for the good news!

The Raid [SP]

by firecontrol

I have the Pong  (Atari)  version, patched to 1.08

Package:

The .zip includes a raid_readme. I know this has been brought up before, lots, but it is good to see people make a mission_named_readme vs just a readme file. Search your computer for readme and see what happens. 

Overview:

Hey it worked for me....nice pic

Intro:

Nice... I enjoyed it and appreciate firecontrol's efforts to make it work for everyone.

Briefing:

Brief and to the point, not much fluff.....but I ain't into fluff anyway...it's called a BRIEFing for a reason. Gave the info that I needed to get started, started dying that is. 

Mission:

What can I say, I enjoyed playing this mission alot. Nothing super fancy, lot's of bad guys and pretty clear cut objectives. firecontrol develops the mission with some good additional hidden objectives and gives ya the stuff to get it done. Not too hard, but certainly not real easy either. Nice ending too.

Outro:

Again I liked it and thought it was very well done . Good job firecontrol.

Summary:

As I've hinted.... I liked this mission. Good placement of assets, both friendly and enemy. Play this one folks, you'll be glad you did. Just be ready to use some vehicles and ya have to be a little stealthy in where ya go with em.

Project Beta Approved

[firecontrol]

Thanks Nixer! Appreciate the time you took to test this.
And a huge thanks to all who've beta tested this. The mission has definately improved since I first posted it here... you all have provided great feedback. Well done!!!

On that note, I wanted to add a little more fluff to this, but... I've moved on to a bigger, better mission (I hope) that I'm working on. As such, I'm submitting this for review, and hopefully my next mission will be much better.

Review me please. Thanks to all at OFPEC who make this kind of stuff happen!
