Hi,
Been having fun playing this again. Played it ages ago (2005 or something) then got it again on GOG after I saw the demo of back in action (which I probably will not get).
Been making good progress on v1.12, Tons of Guns, SciFi, Expert with a IMP who is Stealthy/NO. With his buddy Igor he has been sneaking around causing carnage in the night missions. Is day 38 and I have 5 cities and am clearing the patrols from around Medina right now.
The point being I found the night missions pretty easy, you can sneak around with Stealthy, NO two expert mercs with UV glasses and kill 20 red/black shirts reasonably easily, taking 0-2 hits unless something goes badly wrong.
I did try some daylight attacks close to Medina though and was getting my ass completely kicked. Well some Merc deaths which I then reload.
Do people attack in the day in vanilla? I guess I should change my weapon loadout more towards FN-FALs and use more granades/heavy weapons. The last time I tried it it seemed like the red/black shirts were hitting me from everywhere with shots and granades and I could not hit anything. The LOS rules are a bit difficult sometimes as well to work out where you need to be to see the opponent.
Anyway do people successfully attack multiple times in the day without reloading a lot? How should you set up your squad in terms of people and tactics to make that happen? Night missions just seem so much easier.
