Operation Overwatch

Description
Taliban Forces have continued to expand in the Lythium region of Afghanistan. Due to the uptick in insurgent activity, the President has ordered US Assets to deploy and assist the local Afghan military in quelling the insurgency. CIA SAD operatives have been in country for months establishing intelligence connections with the local population. US Special Forces will deploy and augment the already existing US presence.

You are part of the US initiative to rid the Lythium region of Taliban activity. Question civilians, gain intel, locate Taliban installations and weapon caches and eliminate them. You have local Afghan assets to use in coordinated operations. Rules of Engagement can be found in the Command Center on the whiteboard.

This is a full map, persistent campaign using the ALiVE framework. It can be played with 1-24 players. It is setup as a MP scenario so it WILL NOT SHOW UP IN THE SINGLEPLAYER SCENARIOS. It will show up under MP -- Lythium Map. The campaign is already setup for persistent saves locally, and has 3 Headless client enabled should you wish to use them on your server.

If you've played my other insurgency campaigns such as Restrepo or British Steel, you are familiar with some of the features my campaigns utilize. Features of this campaign include:

-24 player slots
-Insurgent forces will plant IEDs, give guns to Civilians to shoot at local forces, and set up installations, roadblocks and recruitment centers to grow the insurgency
-Convoy missions available to provide food/medicine/supplies to the local population and decrease hostility
-Ambient Civilian traffic will include potential suicide bombers and insurgent gunmen
-A persistent holding cell area at the FOB can be used to imprison troublemakers and gradually reduce their hostility over time
-Close Combat Support and Transport Helos for players
-Logistics and INTEL using the ALiVE CISTAR tablet
-An IN DEPTH description of how to use ALiVE in game via the mission briefing and execution areas
-Ambient audio such as news broadcasts, local radio, Muslim Call to Prayer, and more

If you would like to grab the PBO and put it on your server you will find the PBO in My Documents\Arma 3 - Other Profiles\x\Saved\steam. You have to have played it/started it up at least once for it to show FYI.


NOTE: Do not ask me to add more mods, remove mods. I won't do it. This campaign modlist will not change. Period. If you don't want ACE...you are more than welcome to open up the PBO and remove it. You want to add "xyz" mod...open up the PBO and do it. But I will not be.

As always I hope you enjoy the campaign.

@lonnopo unfortunately that did not work I still had the same error. Thanks anyways though. My friend and I really loved playing this mission and there is nothing else like it on the workshop in our opinion

seconded on the deleted content

I'm getting an error stating it is missing content that has been deleted "mil, radio_b" I've gone through all the mods and repaired them in case it was ACRE but they all seem to check out. I've also verified integrity of files and everything there has checked out too. Not sure what else to do. Just need help determining if its the scenario or if it is one the mods.

Does this need to be on a dedicated server to save progress?
