I love Flashpoint and the expansion packs.
The only downside to it, and it's not even that much of a pain, is the one-save-per-level chance which can lead to ages and ages of gameplay only to be stopped with 1 bullet.
If you want to save whenever you want to instead of just the once?
Left Shift + numberpad minus key
Then type savegame
Voila, instant save.
Hurrah.

I know how that feels.
It can be so satisfying to send team members forwards, just to send a few stray bullets/rockets chasing after them.
Watch the AI soliders run.
MUAHAHA

I hadnt thought of that.
I just shoot them and then go mental, shooting my entire squad before turning it off in a huff and smoking angrily

Execute 4 (bullet to the head), steal his rocket thing, and shoot BMP yourself?
I often end up executing my own guys if they have a weapon I quite fancy using/they are using crapply.

Goddamn Resistance is hard.
Did the tank battle, easy-peasy.
Then had to rescue hostages and run away like big soldier girls.
Now trying to attack a base, except Soldier 4 doesn't understand that his RPG should be used on BMPs.
"4 target BMP" says me
"Roger" says 4
BMP trundling about shooting everyone
"4 target BMP" says me
"Roger" says 4, still laying down and staring at it.
"4 target BMP" says me
"Roger" says paralysed 4
"Damn, 4 is down" says me
"Cease fire" says someone else
"Damn, 2 is down" says me
"Cease fire" says someone else
"Damn, 3 is down. Damn 5 is down, damn 6 is down" says me
They all got shot by an irate Victor Trotska, fed up of watching his spakky troops stare stupidly at BMPs rolling over him

Yeah especially if you've driven for 10 minutes to get to the contact...
It's nice to be able to save just before launching an attack after you've spent 20 minutes + setting it up.
Works a treat.
Works a treat.
Again Goatboy wins the day as those save points were driving me mad.
Only just got this game actually.
Got the gold edition off ebay for a tenner. Played through the first few missions and have enjoyed it actually.
Need more time though!
Cheat will probaby come in handy, cheers.

The save function didn't really bother me, though I did feel it was a bit strict. I'll keep a note of that nice little cheat, it may come in handy some day.
