How long is the Task Force Thunder Campaign?


Recommended Posts

I've just finished the mission where there is a mountain and your stryker company is on one side while retreating Syrian SF are on the other. When I finished it said end of campaign. I was jsut wondering if this was the actual end of the campaign or does your victory conditions of the mission matter in how long the campaign is?

On a related note, I really wish BFC had given dates of missions for the campaign. There is an in-game clock but no in-game calendar to tell you what day the mission is supposed to be on - even though presumably this info is stored along with the other scenario settings.

Perhaps the UI could have an in-game date added, and perhaps BFC could put out a "spoilers" document outlining the dates of each scenario, including branched scenarios, so we can fit other stand-alone scenarios around the official Task Force Thunder storyline

If you loose often enough and lose badly enough your campaign will be cut short and you'll have to try again. Its hard to say how many scenarios are in the campaign (I used to know but I forgot ;) ). If you do badly in a scenario you're often moved off to do a smaller branch battle to make up points before continuing the main fight, so the numbers can grow or shrink. You know you're at the end of the campaign when you're fighting a mega-battle in downtown Hims.

Really? I've won all of the scenarios so I must have missed a few. Dang.

For me, the last battle was a large city battle where you get so many reinforcements that you end up surrounding the enemy without really having to try.

This is from the campaigns script file. Not sure if it's from the latest version though (I seem to recall that there have been last minute changes and post-release changes, too).

Is there screenshot from 53_0 Street Sweepers v05 -mission to be seen anywhere or description of mission? I've have ugly feeling rising under my chest that i don't remember seeing name of that mission... which then is suggesting to me that i haven't actaully finished the campaign succesfully. :eek:
