Arma Kp Liberation
Frederic Laureano
Each mission profile is set to be persistant and challenging with all mods required on the steam workshop page posted and links on how to get mods. I don't have access to a dedicated server of my own but I have tested the missions as best I could through LAN hosting. Please take a look at them and let me know what you guys think and if there are any bugs/glitches with the mission.

It looks like all of your steam links are down. I was trying to get the HALO Liberation, the Unsung 3.0 Delta and the new 3.0 Echo (from the other thread). I thought maybe you were updating the missions, but figured I'd ask. For the newer 3.0 Echo, if you make any more maps, I'm more interested in Unsung only missions without the ACV requirement if possible. Of course, I'll check it out either way.
Also, you Liberation video was great. I've seen a few "tutorials", but this one and one other are the only that I've seen any real value in. A Liberation tutorial kind of has to be a long video or a series. I've been playing a pub Liberation and have gotten a lot from those folks, but this video was very helpful to fill in some details - nice work. Thanks -
@4-325Ranger Hi yes they are currently down right now as I was receiving too many bug reports from individuals. Currently my Unit ODB 112 is using a private version of my Liberation for modern day but I will be using them as guinea pigs to help bug find and troubleshoot my next round of missions. I want to put my missions back up for everyone to enjoy both in SP and MP formats. Not to sound dickish, but I believe many of the bug errors were user error since liberation is still being developed but I'm working on making them work as best I can. I'll be contacting the UNSUNG team soon to give them a new edition of my UNSUNG mission that will incorporate the newest updates to the mod, same concept with HALO as well. Apologies for not replying sooner, been busy with RL that I haven't been on the forms of late. But I appreciate you showing support and desire to play. Also I'm going to see if I can get a group of my guys together to help me do a Video series to do tutorials on youtube. I'll post here when they are up
Oh side note. For my own amusement, I am working on a version of Liberation for the ARMA Stalker mod. I'm currently stuck at a wall with the medical system that is within the mod itself being well.... horrid and doesn't work. I'm testing it out to see if i can get something to work as it completely bars any other medical system from working like ACE. Again will update when I get some more concrete progress made.
Will be looking forward to any new content. I really like the concept of Unsung/HALO with Liberation, will look forward to seeing it in action. Just a thought, have you seen the PreiKhmaochLuong map? Might be too much of a resource pig with something like Liberation, but a thought nonetheless.
Alrighty well it's time...... For some OPTRE LIBERATION! Go check out the steam workshop here and give it a whirl. Please let me know of any issues and such. I will be putting this mission on a dedicated server within the week to do testing as well. I tested this a lot on my lan network to make sure enemies spawn and I'm happy to say that every time I launched I had enemies in all the towns.
The Sahrani Liberation Army (SLA) serves as the primary land, air and sea defence force of the Democratic Republic of Sahrani. Since its founding alongside the Communist state in the mid 1900s[1], the SLA has been involved in an escalating arms race against its main adversary, the South's Royal Army Corps of Sahrani (RACS).[3]
Prior to its collapse, the SLA was militarily supported by the Soviet Union and received large quantities of donated hardware.[1][4] In the aftermath of the Cold War, the SLA continues to obtain equipment from its successor state, the Russian Federation, but support by the Russian state pales in comparison to its predecessor.
It has a dedicated special operations unit known only as the Especas, who are usually assigned as personal bodyguards for DRS leaders[5] and SLA officers[6]. On occasion, they have also been deployed on covert missions deep inside Southern territory to sabotage or assassinate key officials.[7]
After the people of the North succeeded in breaking away from the monarchy, the rebel army was reformed into the SLA and was established to safeguard the people of the DRS and its newfound government in Bagango from all enemies - both domestic and abroad.[2]
However, security of the nation wasn't merely the only mission of the SLA. If the opportunity presented itself, the SLA's task would be the liberation and reunification of the South.[3] As the global competition of influence between the United States and the Soviet Union escalated, the DRS (and that of the SLA) saw its interests better align with those of the Eastern bloc rather than the West.[4]
This shift was largely initiated by the South's decision to ally itself with the United States. Fortunately, the SLA did not stand alone against the South; it received numerous shipments of the latest in Soviet-made hardware and technology. For several decades until the end of the Cold War, the two countries would remain bitterly locked in an escalating arms race. Even after the fall of the Soviet Union, the SLA remained in a constant state of high alert, always standing ready for a full-scale invasion of the South.[3][4]
Tensions reached their highest point in 2002, after U.S. forces are invited by the Southern government to establish military bases on their territory.[3] Bagango vehemently protested against the decision but was ignored by both the U.S. and the Southern government.[4]
Four years after the deployment of U.S. forces, their mission was at last approaching an end to its mandate. With the imminent withdrawal of American troops, the Northern government realised that the time had come to forcibly reunite the divided Sahrani nation.[3][4]
Barely days after the bulk of U.S. troops departed from the island[8], the SLA crossed the border over into Corazol. SLA tanks blasted their way through the confused Southern defenders and their American allies with relative ease.[4][9]
Border cities like Cayo and Tiberia were quickly occupied by Northern troops, while the bulk of the main invasion force continued to push further south into the heart of the Kingdom. First to fall was the city of Ortego to Corazol's south.[10] The invasion force temporarily encountered some stiff resistance from the Americans, but they were driven back to Dolores after more reinforcements arrived to support the front line.[4][11]
Dolores was the next major city to come under the SLA's sights, though they suffered another setback when Southern forces destroyed the bridges leading into the city and cut off several of the tank platoons. Fortunately, the delay was only temporary, and the SLA were able to resume their advance south towards Paraso. Provinces in the east and south simultaneously fell to the SLA's control, though the western regions were still being firmly held by Southern forces.[4][12]
The main bulkhead of SLA troops continued their advances through Corinto towards Paraso and split into two forces, with one breaking off to hit Somato in the west under the cover of darkness. However aside from their tank units, SLA troops lacked access to night vision equipment and were unfortunately intercepted by U.S. troops from a base in Gulan.[4][12]
Though the attack dealt quite a severe blow against the SLA, the main SLA force was still in position to lay siege against Paraso. By dawn, the SLA were able to force U.S. and RACS troops into a pocket at the capital, but they were unable to break into the city itself. To break the stalemate, plans were made to stage an amphibious assault along the north of the city.[4][13]
Now backed by U.S. air support, Southern troops are able to halt the SLA's advances in the east and manage to annihilate the Northern amphibious force. The disastrous defeat forces the SLA to abandon its holdings all across the South, and cross back into the safety of Northern territory under pursuit from the Americans.[4][15]
However, outrage was being directed at the Northern government and the SLA from all across the globe, as SLA troops had apparently committed genocide against the people of the South. Evidence of mass graves found in Cayo and Tiberia had been discovered[16][17], and the South was calling for a retaliatory invasion of the North. SLA forces had not actually massacred civilians and Bagango denied all accusations - though they obviously went unheeded by the international community.[15][18]
Two days later on the 14th[4], Southern troops - backed by their American allies, cross over the border into the North with the aim of overthrowing the leadership in Bagango.[18] The SLA was forced in a defensive war of attrition but had incurred too many losses from the failed invasion, and traded territory until they were cornered at the capital itself.[19]
A small force was able to temporarily drive back the invaders near Tandag, but were ultimately routed when U.S. helicopters wiped out their remaining tank units.[20][21] It didn't help that two other bases on the outskirts of Bagango were destroyed by U.S. special forces[22], and reinforcements inbound to help the defenders at the capital were cut off by American Marines landing on the western coasts.[23] Though they held out valiantly, the last of the SLA defenders were simply no match for the combined might of the Americans.[4][24]
Prior to Bagango's fall, a small group of SLA troops were able to flee from the capital and escaped to the coast, boarding boats headed straight for the remote island of Rahmadi.[26] President Ramirez, the true leader of the Northern government, had secretly been hiding on the island and was the one who issued the orders for Torrez to invade the South.[27][28]
