Due to the COVID situation we all find ourselves in, I've finally had the time to finish this scenario. It is based on the Battle of Mogadishu that took place in October of 1993. I hope you all enjoy!

History

On 3 October 1993, special operations forces consisting of Bravo Company 3rd Battalion, the 75th Ranger Regiment, the 1st Special Forces Operational Detachment-Delta, and the 160th Aviation Battalion, attempted to capture Aidid's foreign minister, Omar Salad Elmim and his top political advisor, Mohamed Hassan Awale.

The plan was that Delta operators would assault the target building using MH-6 Little Bird helicopters, and secure the targets inside the building. Four Ranger chalks under Captain Michael D. Steele's command would fast-rope down from hovering MH-60L Black Hawks. Rangers would create a four-corner defensive perimeter around the target building to isolate it and ensure that no enemy could get in or out.



Features
  1. Over 20 Objectives / Tasks.
  2. Voice Acting
  3. Intro Cinematic / Mission Briefing (can be skipped).
  4. Custom SP Medical System (Instructions can be found in "Briefing" tab of your map).
  5. Addaction in your action menu titled "Force Regroup Squad" that will regroup lost squad members.
  6. Minimum of 1.5 hrs of playtime.
  7. Combat over entire city.
  8. Randomized Enemies (static weapons, vehicles, rooftop units, spawns, positions, etc.). The objective enemies / HVUs are randomized as well, so no play through will be exactly the same.
  9. Select your squad's loadout via BIS Arsenal.
  10. All mission details, tasks, intel, and general hints are can be found under "Briefing" by opening your map.

  11. This mission attempts to recreate the Battle of Mogadishu and the events that inspired "Black Hawk Down."

Added
  1. Added "Enable / Disable Squad Auto-Combat" addaction. This should allow the player to have better control over their AI squadmates during battle.

    NOTE:
    The action must be cycled when new units join the players group.


Recommended Mods

The following MODS are not required, however, I highly recommend them.
  1. BlastCore
  2. C2-Command and Control
  3. JSRS SOUNDMOD
  4. JSRS SOUNDMOD - CUP WEAPONS MOD SOUND SUPPORT
  5. JSRS SOUNDMOD - CUP VEHICLES MOD SOUND SUPPORT
  6. Black Ops Weapons 80's 90's





Mission

You are in command of a four man team as part of the 1st Special Forces Operational Detachment-Delta.

Your mission is to raid an enemy compound located in the middle of Mogadishu and capture four HIgh-Value Units.


Feedback

Feedback is always welcome. This scenario took quite awhile to build, so I don't want to mess with it anymore. However, if you discover any bugs or think something should be changed, I'll be more than happy to try and fix them.

Let me know if you have any questions.

Epic mission bro! I took out 319 tangos and two technicals. Very challenging. Wasn't sure if I was going to complete it. Nice job.

Should be listed as something like "Mog".

bro what terrain is it?

Would you please replaced vanilla technicals (Offroad_01_base_F) in the mission with CUP ones (CUP_Hilux_Base, more fit 1993 era, and has multiply presets, eg. M2HB, DSHKM, SPG9, igla, rocket launcher taken from aircraft)?
And replace CUP 2000s USMC MTVR trucks with more time accurate M939 (from another mod)?

wow impressive work. amazing mission, better than the movie.
had much fun, thanx

p.s. when the player goes deaf from the explosions, though, i would add some ear-ringing and leave a dimmed trace of the other sounds, otherwise it looks like a bug. maybe it wasnt intended and is in fact a bug, idk, but i experienced it as part of the story

Hey there, thank you for your feedback. I will be sure to make it compatible with all supported languages for the remake of this mission.
