Campaigns with "Characters"
Spoiler:

there's also homesick, but the characters don't die until the very last mission, and only Alpha 1 and Beta 4 survive, IIRC.

To consider the Earth as the only populated world in infinite space is as absurd as to assert that in an entire field of millet, only one grain will grow. - Metrodorus of Chios
I wept. Mysterious forces beyond my ken had reached into my beautiful mission and energized its pilots with inhuman bomb-firing abilities. I could only imagine the GTVA warriors giving a mighty KIAAIIIIIII shout as they worked their triggers, their biceps bulging with sinew after years of Ivan Drago-esque steroid therapy and weight training. - General Battuta

Homesick, Shrouding the Light, and Derelict, IIRC, are the main ones that have been released. And use the spoiler tags, Cobra. Don't just mention
Spoiler:
that certain people die at the end of one of the campaigns.

Not all of us. And it spoils things for any newbies that come along and read the thread later.

What the hell? My post jumped up two places?? :wtf:

EDIT: and again. Admins might want to make some corrections. Above post should be after cobra's "we've all played them" comment.

I didn't finish it because of one obscenly hard mission that made me get bored of repeteating it time and time again.:p Thankyouverymuch then!:p
As for characters, let's sum it up as for my projects. [generally, they progress sloooooowly, since I write actual books, and so, have little time. They're mostly story by now, and when I have the story planned out carefully, I'll go to FREDding]
1.Legion - a [very] short campaign about Shivans, their legacy and how GTVA is doomed! DOOOOMED! It revolves around a bunch of SOC pilots stuck inside a system that is going to hell when Shivan legacy comes knocking. Characters are present, but there isn't much room for development because of few missions that will be in it.
2.CCCP - one psychotic Soviet Commissar is the main featuring character. He and his killswitch, that he uses frequently and liberally. Taking "Alpha 1's wingmen blow up fifteen seconds into mission" to a completly new, literal, level.
3.FS:SHMUP - Fidel Castro. No, I am not joking. [and for that one, I'm making table mods and new models already]
EDIT: oh, the same SN [no revealing!] officer will appear in a few missions, mostly combatting uncooperative FS engine.
"CURSE THAT DRAW DISTANCE! CUUUUURSE IT!"
4.Red Tide - Alpha 1 and Command, since the entire campaign is a game between the two of those. The rest is the support cast.
Generally, I must say that I prefer characters, and so use them. It's far more realistic. [and much more fun]

Quite true. I'm well behind at the moment. Haven't played Sync, STL or any of the other campaigns released recently. I tend to avoid their threads so that I don't get spoiled which means that I get annoyed when someone gives away plot points without a need to do so.

Spoiler:

Besides, I'm making a 3 mission campaign about kappa wing getting lost in the nebula. :D (No, it's not part of my other campaign, I just have some spare time).

Well, then quit being an arese and edit that from your post. I, myself haven't played just about any campaign recently. And should I get back into it, you've already just ruined one for me. So stop it.

And fix that first post.

actually his idea in the spoiler has merit.  Kappa wing wasn't heard from again, it would be interesting to be part of that wing and play out what may have happened to them.  Of course....you better make it a good story. ;)

will do. :D and kappa wing wasn't heard from again, that is only about 95% true. Kappa 3 makes it to the testing site where alpha is testing the Tag-A missile. of course, he never makes it out of the battle. shame, then we would've learned about the ravana sooner, then we wouldn't have lost the two corvettes. (I forgot their names)

[EDIT] I will be testing the campaign myself, and if there are any, I will try to work out the bugs in naming the player wing "Kappa", since I'm using retail FRED. I don't use SCP versions because they keep crashing all the time. and, 3.6.5 doesn't show me the ships and stuff, so I'm left with editing the mission specs and stuff.

[EDIT 2] Also, I'm "dusting off" FRED. I don't use it except setting up framework for pecenipicek. so, don't expect anything too flashy, k?
