    Campaign Question

    I have the Mythril Star Medal and according to Wiki I should be able to access some campaign ops which are not available to me when I visit the Campaign Ops NPC. For example Aegis Scream II. I have the correct rank to access this and as far as I know Aegis Scream does not have certain requirements to flag like some of the others do.

    Does anyone know why it does not appear in my Ops menu at the NPC? or is anyone else having similar issues?

    Thanks in advance

    The campaign ops that are available to you vary depending on your nations status in the war. To my knowledge, nobody has completely figured them out yet, but I could be wrong. Occasionally I get even level 1 ops (ex streetsweeper 1, delta strike 1 etc etc.) locked.

    A friend of mine swears the ops available change depending on campaign updates. I could swear sometimes when something I want to do is locked I will bite the bullet and go for something i dont feel like doing, then suddenly others are unlocked (though it might have just been at the exact time the update happened also).

    Yeah I thought that initially but Aegis Scream II, Granite Rose II and Streetsweeper II have never opened up on my pick list for some reason.

    My ls has more than one person from Sandy in the past who is having the same problem as me, yet others in the shell who are also from Sandy can get access to the missions we appear to be missing.

    I'm wondering if its bugged

    I believe the following things have the potential to mess with what Ops you may or may not have available:
    -Your rank (duh). Obvious this isn't it in this case.
    -Nation's intelligence and recon levels, which aren't particularly in your control.
    -How many regions nation controls, and which regions.
    -Whether you'd failed other ops recently--it can limit your choices.
    -Number of people who have completed that op in some length of time. This is the most likely reason something isn't appearing for you. There's a cap of how many people can... or maybe it's number of people who have the ops listed on their current mission list. I seriously don't know entirely how it works. The resource ones are always there because people whore out temp items and there's always need for resupply. Stuff like the offense/defense ones get grabbed fast, as do the security ones. Actually, all of them get nabbed quickly because they're all better than resources and escort. Joy.


    There's a fair chance I'm entirely wrong. This is how I understand the Ops system at least.

    I believe that the beastmen army stats (morale prosperity etc) may also play a role in unlocking certain campaign ops. For example it would make sense if Pit Spider 3 (stop the enemy convoy) was only available against beastmen with high prosperity.
