Hi Mark - I've just played this one through and enjoyed it. The Russian FFG was a PITA so I just had to try and keep my aircraft out of his engagement zone as best I could.

I lost a couple of F16s and a UAV through my own stupidity but otherwise I did OK.

Thanks for the feedback. Anyone else? Is there anything that needs to be fixed or improved before I send it to the Community Scenario Pack? Thanks!

Looks good to go, fairly easy. I was pretty aggressive with my SuCAP and had destroyed all the militia by the time the second swath of F-16s were ready. Spent a couple hours dodging SAMs and downing MiG-23s.

Lost 2x UAVs and a damaged F-16 with about 12 hrs damage.

Triumph, 360 with about 3 hrs left to go.

I don't think you need the Apaches at all. If you dropped the 24x F-16 down to 18 it would represent 25% on maintenance, it will still be very achievable.

You may want to put (or Lua in) an artillery battery which causes the player to react quickly when it starts shelling the radar.

On the other hand - it's a good starter scenario for new players as is, good use of sensors and not overwhelming at all.

Just uploaded version 2. I took out the Apaches and dropped the number of Falcons from 24 to 21. I think that should be a good balance between "not too easy" and "not too hard."

Please let me know what you think. Anything else I need to change or improve? Or is it ready for the Community Scenario Pack? Thanks!

I like it. I'd say it's ready. Good airstrike mission without getting overwhelmed.
