Ever since the “Rolling Steel” mission became available, players have been wondering what other kind of time limit objective missions would it be possible for us to have.
Here’s an idea for one that could not only be fun, but also be a sort of introduction to a new sector in the future. Not quite sure what the name of it would be (can’t think of anything that is not too cheesy at the moment), but the story would that heretics are launching an offensive against Tertium from the Witherlands in order to try and break the stalemate within the hive city itself. The line is currently holding, but suppressed and in danger of being over run due to the heretic artillery. Your objective? Blow-up the artillery guns before the line breaks.
This is just one example, so don’t be afraid to add your own.

Here’s one I’ve been pitching for a bit.
You need to get to a Leman Russ battle tank before the heretics kill the crew. Then you repair it, and escort it to evac as its blowing stuff up.
Of course, might not be fit for an Operation, considering we still need more “Repair” missions. But the same concept could be applied to like, a friendly skyfire array.

Don’t know what the original photo is supposed to be, but please leave any political images or topics out of this, other wise I will have to notify the forum admins and then nobody will win.
It’s Bush being told about 9/11
(and as long as it’s not shitflinging the Community supports are mostly alrigth with it)
For Operations that could for the most part make sense with various hooks:
- Squad is sent to place explosive charges on either a bridge (or something else), in preparation from a major movement of the enemies.
→ Fail state is armoured targets shooting us
→ Victory state is cinematic of Heretic column being exploded or dying from sabotage
- Squad is sent to rescue crashed out Valkyrie’s crew
→ Fail state is dead Pilot
→ Win state is escaping in either a different Valk, or making it out in the original Valk
Tbh I’m not fussed about having new/more operations (I’d rather see Rolling Steel be reworked into either a 2 part mission, or a longer train run), the mission style that I feel FS should prioritise would be Assassination (With New Lord type, or a modified/buffed Monster), or Investigation.
Or a new type of Mission, either Rescue, Escort (Though would require specialised maps), or Theft, I’d like theft

Love the objective and time limit aspect of it.
