Description
The year is 2035... and tensions are high in Livonia

Enlist as an LDF Squad Leader and investigate a hub of Separatist Activity


https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2636962953 <-- Please note that the mission can be played without the WS CDLC if you instead utilize the compatibility data found here.

Context:

It is September 2035, the world is on edge following the events of the ‘East Wind’ flash-point in the Mediterranean and the rumors of clashes between NATO and CSAT forces in the Horizon Islands. Tensions between the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) and the Canton Protocol Strategic Alliance Treaty (CSAT) have never been higher.

While diplomats from the United Nations desperately attempt to descalate the situation, Russia, the most powerful remaining non-aligned state in the world, is looking to solidify it’s sphere of influence in Eastern Europe by expanding it’s Kaliningrad territory into the independent nation of Livonia. Russia has been shocked into action after Belarus, a long time ally of the Russian Federation, joined CSAT in early-2035 following the 2035 Moscow Summit. This turn of events shocked both Eastern and Western observers, and has led to increased political instability in a Russian state that is becoming increasingly un-sure of it’s position in the new world order. Action must be taken.

The Russian government has long un-officially supported a small group of ethnic Russians in Livonia who have sought for Livonia to join the Russian Federation since the collapse of the USSR. The LDF has fought a pro-tracted counterinsurgency campaign against this group with measured success, particularly in the last year as the insurgency has heated up in the Nadbor region of the nation. The insurgency has intensified in recent weeks... and many quietly speculate that the intensified operations on the Kaliningrad Separatists part could be a series of shaping operations for something far more sinister.

*If this mission is received positively, I intend on turning the concept into a campaign.*

Features:

  • 20-25 Minutes of Infantry Gameplay
  • LDF Perspective
  • A Detailed Briefing + Set Piece Building

Banger wee mission now that I've gotten around to playing it. My only criticism is geographical - with the way Livonia is positioned, the action takes place toward the border with Belarus rather than Kaliningrad, which is to the West, so it makes the supposed OPFOR being Kaliningrad separatists a bit odd.

That aside, great mission, very enjoyable

Short and sweet, might be an inspiration for my own scenario. Good stuff

@Liberty_Valance - some aspects of the Aegis mod require Western Sahara. If you read the description above you'll note that you can utilize the WS compatibility data to play the mission if you do not own the WS CDLC.

Yay, finally some justice for Livonia! LDF is probably the most underrated faction in A3 and it's nice to see someone recognizing their potential.

Thanks for the feedback! Happy to hear it's proven to be an enjoyable mission/concept. More to come for sure.

Nice mission and can't wait for a campaign based around that story! There's a lack of story-driven missions on the WS so nice to see something like this. (especially since I'm to lazy to finally start my 3CB based story with a similar-ish plot lol)
Also good choice of Aegis! Never could find any use for it myself so it's nice to see it get some love
