Antarctic Gold Testing Branch

This is a custom map campaign based in the Antarctic region. It currently is planned as a 25+ mission campaign, with full story, lore, and unique gameplay aspects aimed at a challenging and rewarding experience. It was intially intended for just 1 or 2 players, but has quickly expanded into allowing up to 8 players on some missions! The story missions are still 1 or 2 players mostly though.

This campaign features numerous missions intended to teach, test, and execute all of the games features. Game knowledge will come in key. The missions all require strategy and planning. The mission briefs provide a lot of context and hints, so ALWAYS read the brief before flying. If you just run in and try to brute force the missions, they will prove challenging and possibly frustrating. Each mission is designed to either show off or take advantage of each airframes abilities and weaknesses, they are all completable solo without death. If you need help on a mission, join the discord and ask away!

Right now it is a WIP, released here for public testing and feedback. Currently about 80% of the missions are working, with those that are still being under active testing, hence the testing branch.

Please note, this campaign requires, at bare minimum, the T-55 and EF-24. It has several missions that are also intended for the AH-94, however AV-42s are available on those missions (though they are balanced for the AH-94, so they may be much more difficult in the 42).

Please see this google sheet to see what missions are playable and the current state of the campaign.
