    The Forgotten Few - SP/MP Dynamic Campaign for CO

    The Forgotten Few
    A survival story of a Russian spetsnaz platoon commander and his men struggling through a gruesome counter-insurgent operation


    About The Campaign
    • Single scenario campaign of 7 immersive and realistic dynamic missions with variating objectives and scale!
    • Plan out your missions yourself before actual dispatch with available resources and field intelligence at hand!
    • Whenever approved by higher command, assign men to an assisting “Spark” squad and lead them on the field!
    • Call in air and artillery support at hot situations whenever available!
    • Lead your 24-man platoon through the hell - will you and your comrades survive?
    • Every play time a totally different experience!
    • Play in Single-player or Multiplayer

    This 7 mission long campaign is built around a platoon of 24 Spetsnaz soldiers. The player adopts the role of the platoon commander named Mikhail Koikov. Every mission is randomly generated with vast amount of variables: Mission type, objectives, location, the structure of both friendly and enemy forces, the scale of confronting forces, fire support, time of day, weather etc. This ensures maximum replayability. The campaign starts off with easier missions and as the player proceeds the missions will get increasingly difficult by strengthening the enemy forces compared to friendly forces and support available to the player.

    The campaign is designed to give the player the freedom to plan the execution of the mission. Prior to each mission player gets to study the mission objectives and field intelligence and based on this assign soldiers to squads "Torch" and "Spark", set the loadout of the soldiers and define their insertion points and vehicles. During the missions the player has the opportunity to request fire support and after the mission call for an extraction vehicle if necessary. The missions are evaluated by giving "campaign points" for successful objectives. Therefore succeeding in objectives is not obligatory. Additional campaign points will be given for survived soldiers once all 7 mission are finished.

    This project started from a minor dynamic mission idea but over the course it developed into a detailed full-blown campaign. A lot of attention has been paid in details and I have carefully polished the overall feel and immersion before public release. The work on this campaign has been a ton of fun and the further develop continues as long as there are more ideas, inspiration and of course, free time. As this is a dynamic campaign there's always room for expansion. Keep your heads up for new versions and hope you have as much fun playing the campaign as I had making it!

    Sometime the enemy reinforcements are minor... but still fearless and devoted!

    The intro was cool, and the mission setup is impressive. Playing the first mission now. I downloaded the non-addon version but it still seems to require the RH AK pack - I got a config error when the mission loaded and all my squad except the marksman and machinegunner started with no weapons.

    Thanks. Yes it requires the RH AK pack, think you missed that one from the addons list in the first post. The link is provided there.

    Ah I see, you were right. I must have accidentally replaced one file with the addon version one. I fixed this now.

    Hotfix made for original version and first post updated!

    Also added "Thanks to" section that was left out from first post.
