I am getting a technical defeat on the first mission every time I sink the very first freighter. I'm confused. Am I not supposed to sink it?

I just finished the fourth mission and when the message screen came up, it was blank. I also just got through watching the fourth mission on YouTube and his message screen never came up telling him he had won. You might want to check this. A great series of four games.

Wanted to enjoy them but there seem very dumb, for example mission 4 the fact all the ships are on weapons tight, they allow migs to bomb them and still dont engage unless told...

@76561198052990131, I had a similar issue with low-flying aircraft in that mission. I got errors like the FCR being unable to lock on, and the planes flying too low to launch it (with no option of forcing them to go higher).

The solution seem to be either to line up for a tail shot with a Sidewinder, or bring in one of the gun-equipped Phantoms from the airbase. Or wait until the devs fix the game's dogfighting AI.

There appears to be a bug on the 2nd to last mission (I forget which number it is) where my CAP won't engage the incoming enemy fighters. I've tried everything from manually engaging to setting weapons free and they just go in circles around each other.

Most fun campaign so far, thanks

This is an awesome mission pack. The Cuban Missile crisis is something that has fascinated me with how close we were to a nuke battle.

please fix the victory triggers on mission four. Otherwise, I really like it. I hope you can figure out how to restrict weapons systems that didnt exist in 1962.

Adding on, on the screen that summarizes the engagement, it shows that there are incomplete objectives.

I'm running through the first mission and I am having an issue. I've killed everything aside from a Soviet liner that showed up as Neutral. I assume that I need to wait for TF23 to show up.... But It's been several in game hours since the last engagement. Is there something I am missing?

Yeah, the victory triggers are highly inconsistent and as far as I can tell there is not much I can do about it. Sometimes they work for me, sometimes they don't - I have tried every conceivable combination of settings and nothing will work 100%

Enjoyed the missions. On the last one I was not sure if I had killed all the subs and eventually had to leave the mission hoping I had gotten all of them. Luckily I had. Overall a great job. If only the victory triggers worked though so I was not second guessing if I had finished the mission or not.

Yeah I had the same thing happen as gone_wandering. I had a couple of migs soak up like 4-5 missile hits. I had to hit them with cannon fire to get them down.

Whats going on with the indestructible enemy planes in the 3rd mission? After a while I decided best to just 4 sparrow salvo every fighter/bomber and still some were surviving. One bomber went through 12 sparrows, 8 sidewinders and a 4 salvo from each ship capable of doing it. On it's final approach to my carrier I decided to follow it to see what a god looked like. It was eating multiple AA rounds from the cannons and still went on to unload and sink my carrier.

First mission complete, no losses... Second mission not so much... even after taking out 4 sam sites with EA6B and F4's, I cant get any targets for B52s besides Sam sites and even with Growler support they will not drop on Sams....

Just finished Red Line with only losing the P-3.
Great mission pack man! Felt very organic and "plausible". Love the concept of having to screen civilian vessels as nontargets.
Going to run the others!

I'm playing the first scenario now. I'm enjoying it.

Theres a pic with a f4 I need it now

I've just finished reading the Michael Dobbs book of the same name so I'm very interested to play these scenarios.
Thank you.

Really liked the missions, specially the first one

Was really fun to play, thanks!
