Bohemian Carnivores [Comb-12]

[VanhA-ICON]

Hello good citizens of ArmAland.
Do you remember the Czech heavy metal band "Bohemian Carnivores"?
They had 2 top ten hits: "Pissing the Red River" and "Shot in the face and bleeding some".
Well, anyway... the guys are in trouble and need a hand:

My 3rd OA mission:
co12 Bohemian Carnivores v1.1

*Requires ArmA2 (Combined)
*Revive AI-enabled
*Satellite view
*Nasty surprises for everyone
*Ugliest tour bus the mankind has seen so far

Story/background:

A Czech metal band called Bohemian Carnivores were asked to play a consert in Rasman to show good will amongst locals and the UN peacekeepers.
Unfortunately local imams from the militia took as a personal insult having that kind of western satanism upon their holy land.

As a result their tour bus was confiscated and the band alongside their manager found themselves facing a firing squad....
A czech special forces team has been enjoying a little time off in the UN base in Garmsar when the news break out.
The band has been eliminated and revenge must follow.



Detailed scenario description/objectives:
- Task 1: Get the bus keys from the warlord
- Task 2: Drive the bus back to UN base

VanhA,

Tis always a pleasure to have first shot at testing your great missions. All who read this, it is yet another excellent mission to be playing with your squad mates.

Top ho and splendidly spiffing old chap :-D

great stuff,tried it twice and didnt came further than 1000m to the bus location before i got lit up
Sadly,when playing alone the AI wont go for reviving you,therefor i had 2 quick deaths ...
Even playing only a short percentage of this i´m sure this is a mission i will need to sink my teeth in alot more often till i complete it - which is ace,to easy missions are for justin biever fans

Goddammit,page2?
Not anymore!

Yeah, I noticed the AI revivers are bloody lazy sometimes.
(There are some bugs in revive which hopefully get sorted by norrin.... I'll update the mission then)

The bus has 4 different locations it can be in (all in that village).

Playing alone one could have AI spearhead with M2-humvee and secure the road ahead maybe. One tactic could be trying to take out the AT-checkpoint and use D-30 to pound the HQ and then go get the keys and so on...

However, prepare for additional nastyness after that.

I love the idea of this mission.

the hell?
Its really a hard nut to crack,but i m blaming the "playing alone" stuff for that,having 2-3 players i imagine its even more fun to play

On a side note,my AIs stop working after their 1st death,they react quite a few minutes after being revived/aided but i wasnt able to move/order them anymore 2minutes after that - and they just stayed there proned declining every order i gave em - worked well all the time before and still is with the non-shot ones i had in use
And the vehicle service stations (US) do serve my vehicles but sadly not the enemy vehicles (which is a bummer when placed in a enemy supply place)

*thumbs up*

Yeah, the revive version (0.49b) seems a tad bugged and I'll do an update when it's fixed.
Good note about the service station. I'll make a mental note of that also for possible update.

Yeah, we've only managed to play through it once and there were 6 of us playing then.
PM me if you want a version for yourself where revive is changed so that it does not end when all players unsconscious.
That is easily changed.

Aaaaaaaaaaw you b******,seriously you are a tricky mission maker - why the hell didnt i took into account you
Spoiler:

show spoiler

triggered IEDs by weight!!!
i was otw back base with the truck and passed a cleared supply stock as the IED at the crossroad gone off,the 2nd IED explosion wasted my truck finally and i didnt had a chance to react lol
i even thougt of the IED at that place but went "nah,wont happen - passed it 4 times with vehicles" then > aaaaaaaarggggghl!

Slap in my face just point black man!
...
...
Great job on this mission,it took me close to 2,5h to play it *two thumbs up*
Salute the fallen!

[VanhA-ICON]

Actually I tried to set the IED so that it only spooks you.
(A second IED?? wot?)
Maybe I should tune it to go off a tad earlier. I only meant it for a "changing underwear" effect... since it's not all there's after that.


Maybe I'll come and assist you sometime.
Thanks for the feedback m8. (Nice pics btw)
