- Stone Bell

Version: 1.2 Final

Required Addons: None

Mission Description: American forces have advanced up the coast and taken the town of Berezino and appear to be holding for the evening. Russian and Resistance forces are poised to strike back and remove the Americans from Berezino before they have an opportunity to entrench their position.

Features: The player is part of a two platoon assault: One Resistance platoon and one Russian platoon, each supported by a platoon of armor (T72's & T90's) and organic mortar units. All three sides have their own mortar units which will engage known targets within the operations area (thanks to Mr. Murray for his arty script for Arma 1 which I modified to accomplish this).

Thanks, I'll check this out.

Thanks for the mission - Had a crack lastnight, was good fun :) Bit short, but quite a hectic battle.

I actually decided to run ahead of my squad and had to deal with alot of the enemy units myself.

Also just wanted to say i'm very glad to see more people making missions that don't require the player to control the AI. Baby sitting the AI sometimes gets tedious, or just plain annoying when they do things you weren't suspecting.

I hope the message in the outro is an indication that there are more to come ;) I'll be keeping an eye out.
