Ground attacks

Post by Orao »

Hi,

Is it possible to modify the number of planes sent for ground attack ? I mean just 2 fighters against 4 + ennemy planes and some 20 SAM and AA turrets it's almost an impossible mission. I've never managed to destroy something eventhough I tryed different approches.

Hopefully I understand your question here...

If you are playing one of milo's scripted mission from the original then all ground attack missions should have 4 planes, all armed with ground assault weapons. Generally two craft also go for escort purposes, but they are armed with air-air ordinace. Although these missions are tough they are not undefeatable, just keep trying and you'll get it.

If your playing a mission that you, (or someone else), created then you can alter the number of planes in each flight in the mission editor.

hope this provides some help.

Addition: when you run out of missiles, fuel and/or armor, you can get to Hell out off there (nose up and hit afterburners), land to carrier and go back.
You know what they say, don't you? About how us MechWarriors are the modern knights, how warfare has become civilized now that we have to abide by conventions and rules of war. Don't believe it.
