That's what got me started, too.

Yup. I remember landing my chopper in Gunship 2000, and wondering if I was going to get a medal for what I did, or get chewed out for how long it took to do it.

I know what I miss from the MPS games I used to play: not knowing what mission I would be assigned next. Every time I went to the mission briefing in F-19, F-15 II/III, Gunship 2000, M1 Tank Platoon, Red Storm Rising, etc., it was a surprise. I really hate the campaigns that have Mission 1, then Mission 2, then Mission 3, etc. It really lessens the replay value. With Microprose, every campaign was different, and it was always an adventure.
