Has anyone found a way to produce the effect of aerial or ground illumation flares? Bascially, temporary lighting sources that slightly flicker and decend from the sky and burn out by the time they reach ground or small, light sources that flicker on the ground, triggered when an event occurs? Is it possible to create a helicopter as a small light source that spawns and then decends to the ground?

<MISSION FOUR: Transcript Continues> CAPTAIN FISHER: What happened after the camp was secure? LIEUTENANT KILMORE: We spent some time helping the UN troops stabilize the wounded. God, it was a mess. By mid-afternoon, the Tanzanian army had arrived and begun transporting the wounded to Kigoma. Once the wounded were under control, we started tending to the dead. There were bodies everywhere…women, children, old men. It was like a scene straight from hell. I couldn’t help but feel sick, but at the same time. It was one thing to kill soldiers, but another to just slaughter he

,<MISSION THREE: Transcript Continues> CAPTAIN FISHER: What did you do when the helicopters arrived? LIEUTENANT KILMORE: I instructed the first bird to evac the missionaries and the wounded to the nearest Tanzanian military hospital and to report our status to Operations. I then told the second bird to standby, as Major Billings with the UN forces was flagging my attention. He had just gotten off the radio and told me that a Red Cross supervisor at the refugee camp up the road in Tanzania reported that a sizeable force of Hutu rebels was approaching the camp. Apparently

<MISSION TWO: Transcipt Continued> CAPTAIN FISHER: Why didn’t you call for an extraction? Didn’t you have a satellite phone with you? LIEUTENANT KILMORE: Yes, but we were unable to get a signal. Without a boat and no working com, we figured our best bet was to reach the UN observer camp just east of the Kobero border crossing. If we humped all night, we could make it there by daybreak. We had to slow down several times to avoid FNL patrols, but we still made pretty good time…even with the missionaries in tow. We arrived at the camp at around 08:30. In fact, the UN troops

PRE-TRIAL TRANSCRIPT U.S. Government VS Lt. David Kilmore 12 August 2007 CAPTAIN FISHER: Lt. Kilmore, my name is Captian Fisher and I have been assigned as prosecutor for this case. You understand that this is a pre-trial interview and that anything you say may be used against you in future court marshal proceedings? I should also note that all of your statements will be recorded and may be used in a future trial if the Burundian Government or the Tanzanians decide to press charges in the international courts. The State Department is doing everything to keep that from happening right

I have spent some time working out the idea on a new mod. It is a little different than the norm, and in some ways follows the very cool story telling methods used by Jack57. The mod is a five mission "campaign" that develops through the mission briefings as a pre-trial transcript for the court marshal of Lt. David Kilmore. Kilmore's interview by the prosecutor sets the stage for each GR mission, which are all developments that occurred during one single rescue mission in Africa. Probably the best way to give you a taste of the idea is to show some of the briefings. I will post the first t
