Khark Island Raid, 1985 - Questions

[User1984]

Bunyap recently posted a video series of this Scenario:

Thanks Bunyap for your excellent videos!!

I was really pleased to see how he went about completing this Scenario, since I have never been
able to gain a victory in this Scenario in approximately 10 attempts. This Scenario has been insanely
difficult for me.

I noticed in his video, that the Iraqi Side has Mirage aircraft available. In the Scenario that
that I have been playing, there are no Mirage aircraft listed or available. I am playing the latest
released version of CMANO/NI 1.11 Final Build 825.

Has the Khark Island Scenario been updated? Is there a new version available somewhere?

hmmm, I don't know, my scenario from 1.11 update contains 3 available Mirages

Mikkey,

Thanks for checking your scenario. That is strange that my scenario does not have the Mirages.

Do you have a date associated with your Khark Island scenario?

[hzarr6901]

Checked my scenario same thing, no Mirages either. Database build 440 being used. Where are the Mirages?

[mikkey]

Scenario date is 21.04.2016 08:39, database B443

[hzarr6901]

Using v1.11 825 is it possible that the stand alone scenarios didn't update? If so do I need to reinstall the latest version again?

[User1984]

I also have DB 440 which is in use with the latest official 1.11 patch.

Mikkey, how did you get the DB 443 version?

[mikkey]

Probably you got the first version of v1.11 installer, which scenarios installed in to the wrong folder (the original scenarios have not been updated) - details and modified v1.11 installer are here -> Scen not loading after v1.11 update - READ HERE

Any update on this ?

[User1984]

Thank you Mikkey,

I installed the updated 1.11 installer from the link you provided. This fixed the issue and my scenarios and database are updated. I also deleted the Shared Content folder from my root directory, since it is redundant.

Thanks again!

[hzarr6901]

Thank you, discovered that I missed up on my first effort to fix the "shared content" issue.

Thanks again.

You're welcome, enjoy it.

Although I got a triumph in my first try, I agree this scenario is hard. The Air battle part is challenge,but with proper tactics, you can win the air battle, ( I shoot down all the Iranian fighters with 0 loss). The ground strike phase is extremely difficulty to the player. Iranian SAM sites are murderous, especially the I-Hawk. For all the 9 SU-22, I lost 7 when breaking through, I was a little lucky, 2 get through, dropped bomb on the oil tank before been shot down, 3 to 4 destroyed oil tank give me enough score to triumph.

If I got a chance to try this scenario a second time, I would send my fighters into the SAM defense first. Hopefully the Mig-23's excellent accelerate can make it survive.
