Thank you Chazly for the streams!

Hey Chazly,

Just wanted to say a big thank you for uploading the streams of your missions to YouTube!

I watched all of the (long!) mission where you were in the Seawolf and sank an Oscar while protecting an ARG. I learned a lot - and also enjoyed your commentary (and the Hunt for Red October quotes!)

Definitely keen to watch more!

Thanks heaps mate,
Stew

You are welcome! Expect more soon

(p.s. I'm open to good mission recommendations )

Thanks Chazly,

I'm starting to dabble more in mission making - but I need a good few hours to make a mission 'good' (some random options to make it 'playable' more than once, linking it to real historical events, realistic naval messages and including some 'twists' to make it interesting)

Now that I have a good 'bank' of maps (Kola, East Timor, Korea, China, South China Sea, etc.), I can get to it.

Considering you played the 'search for a Kilo that could be anywhere on the Birdwood Bank' mission, I think I could make a better mission!

Cheers mate,
Stew

Hey stewy, as I commented in his kilo video, I have a good idea for a mission for you to build.

Last week there was that story about the russian kilo Krasnodar that was launching LAMs at Syria and dodging all sorts of NATO patrols trying to find her and get a good feel for her signature including helos from a nimitz carrier group, a squadron of P8's out of Italy, and a couple of ddg. Probably some NATO subs involved too.

This would be one heck of a mission or mission series. Based on real life events, involves missiles, and running from a bunch of ships, subs, and aircraft scouring the sea looking for you. It's seems fun and challenging, a real test to those skippers that think their tough ****.

I am afraid stewy1 is only mapmaker - not mission maker.
He didn't relase any mission yet, but i still have hope because that:

Now that I have a good 'bank' of maps (Kola, East Timor, Korea, China, South China Sea, etc.), I can get to it.

...and this:

...will result in the release of first scenario quite soon

BTW: @speed150mph your proposition means long time single mission in peace time with LAM attack? Have you something more specific in mind? Detecting kilo means mission failure or what?

[Stewy1]

Thanks Speed for that info. I have already updated my Syria map to include the real Russian operating areas (and real targets in Syria). That would be a good idea for a mission. Though as soon as you launch a land-attack missile, you're detected - that could make things hairy! Leave it with me!

P7, not sure if you're going with the whole 'trash-talk' angle, but rest assured I've done a fair bit of reading into recent naval history and have read the 'mission editor' manual back to front. Time is the biggest issue - but I'll see what I can come up with over the weekend.

Some of the best 'personal' missions I've made are more 'secret squirrel' ops, where you've done well if you don't have to fire a shot - I'm not sure if that's got a wide appeal - but we'll see.

Cheers gents,
Stew
