Zveroboy1 Posted October 6, 2020 Share Posted October 6, 2020 --------------------------------------------------------- Sniper in the Corn ---------------------------------------------------------- Description : With the release of Shock Force 2 on Steam, I wanted to create an relatively simple introductory scenario with a low troop density thus easy to manage where new players can practice small units infantry tactics against an insurgent force. In the end the map size and the length of the battle are probably too large for a real basic scenario but that was my initial starting point. The scenario has you lead a single platoon of British infantry plus support elements, belonging to the C Company, 2nd Battalion, Parachute Regiment and takes place in september 2008, early morning in Helmand province, Afghanistan, in the green zone roughly halfway between Sangin to the North and Gereshk to the South West. Mission length : 1H30 minutes plus extra time. Map size : 1150 X 1680m There are three AI plans each with a different and semi randomized setup. Play as Blue attacker against Red AI only. Install : Make sure your game is patched to version 2.04 and you have the British module, then extract in : documents/battlefront/Shock Force 2/game files/scenarios or for a Steam install : steam root folder/battlefront/Shock Force 2/game files/scenarios Download : https://www.dropbox.com/s/4cqqqprigsy5n29/afg - sniper in the corn - isaf.rar?dl=0 Sources : Insurgent Tactics in Southern Afghanistan 2005-2008 Jerry Meyerle, Carter Malkasian Michael Yon, Death in the Cornhttps://www.michaelyon-online.com/death-in-the-corn-part-i-of-iii.htm 12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Erwin Posted October 6, 2020 Share Posted October 6, 2020 Noticed as with your other scenario that the Brit Platoon HQ cannot call in arty while all other inf units can. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sgt.Squarehead Posted October 6, 2020 Share Posted October 6, 2020 It's a (reported) Bug. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Myself, I think @Kieme(ITA) CMSF Horizon fits better with Helmand. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zveroboy1 Posted October 9, 2020 Author Share Posted October 9, 2020 (edited) Yes Kieme's horizon fits much better for this region of Afghanistan, I agree. This is what I had been using but I wanted to try something else for a change. Here it is though : https://www.dropbox.com/s/ltxhnyc8mspd5a2/zcma mountains.rar?dl=0 Edited October 9, 2020 by Zveroboy1 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
borg Posted December 18, 2020 Share Posted December 18, 2020 just wanted to chime in - to really really give a BIG KUDOS to these AFG missions. They simply feel genuine, and capture the moment. Thanks man 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cob Posted February 8, 2021 Share Posted February 8, 2021 Thank you for this scenario. Give me great fun and I appreciated the mobility of the Talib truppen and the feeling of immersion that the size of the map, the brieffing and the mission give. Also, it's nice to have the opportunity to play some interesting mission without the necessity to take charge of huge unit. Think that I will try another time later, just to see if I must fight against another AI plan or testing another way to win against the same. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Falaise Posted February 10, 2021 Share Posted February 10, 2021 Thanks to Zveroboy 1 for this scenario and to these mods which gives an incredible atmosphere. You're right Borg and Cob, it's really a great experience 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
