CHAPTER 6
Even though all missions in an operation are inter-related, you may fly the
first seven missions in any order you desire.  In order to fly the final mission of
the campaign, however, you must already have successfully completed the
first seven. When a mission is successfully completed, it will turn "blue" in the
menus.
At the conclusion of every mission, your skill as a pilot is evaluated in a post-
mission de-briefing which lists your performance statistics.  You are also given
a mission score which is based (among other things) on the value of the targets
you destroyed.  (Friendly targets subtract
 from your score.  If you want a high
mission score, refrain from shooting guys wearing the same uniform as you.)

This set of operations is unique to Comanche Gold. It consists of one
campaign of missions specifically designed for Comanche Gold by actual
Army personnel.
Operation Elva missions were created by Major Allen Sakcriska, Former
Army Training and Doctrine Liaison to Boeing/Sikorsky Helicopter.
These very special missions allow you to fly in combat situations very much
like the one’s which real Comanche pilots will face.

RIEFINGS
Before each training and campaign mission you are given a briefing in
the Griffon Squadron Headquarters. Each briefing consists of three main
components: a mission description, a loadout screen and a mission map.
a) Mission Description
The first portion of each briefing is a text description of the mission you are
about to fly. Take a minute and read through it. It will outline some general
information regarding the mission such as your ordnance load-out, light
conditions, etc. More importantly, it will give you specific orders telling you
exactly what you need to do to win this mission. The narrative portion of the
briefing will contain any information regarding the enemy force structure and
disposition.
