Hi again!

I've wrapped up the food convoy mission, as played from the militia side. This mission puts you in charge of a small unit of Sunny Pines militia tasked with transporting a desperately needed food shipment to Sunny Pines. Below, you will find a brief summary and a dev video, should you want more details.

The Mission:

Aware of a hostile group are trying to overthrow the leadership of Sunny Pines, and running out of food, you are tasked with escorting the food convoy from Rawlston Farm to Sunny Pines. This is a combat focused mission, with three battles. The first battle introduces the vehicle escort mission type, while the latter two focus on modifying the battlefield to your advantage (through destroying bridges, placing sandbags or mines) to better defend a stationary truck from attacks.

A fallen tree blocks the convoy's route. Has it fallen, or has it been cut?


Early Access Release:

I've tried increasing my working hours over the past two months, to see if it would be possible to release before the end of the year. Unfortunately, no matter how many hours I throw at it, it just won't be possible. If you've been patiently waiting on the game, I'm sorry to disappoint you. My expectation is to release around Apr - May of 2024, which is further explained in the video.

When defending the convoy, you can deploy additional defenses such as sandbags, and mines. You can even destroy the bridge!
