Title: Finding Storm
Post by: BewareTheChicken on April 15, 2021, 11:02:48 am

It's late 1998, I've shut down the Red Dawn, interviewed at least one person of each rank and done the Red Dawn Storm Trade research. But I have never found any storm on a mission. Is it still possible for some to show up or am I buggered now?

This is very unusual, but not exactly impossible. The chance for a Storm capture mission is 10% each month, since researching Storm Trade.

Thanks. I'll keep my fingers crossed then.

I just never got many red dawn missions. Got durathread from an early mission, the co-ordinator from the factory then the HQ. With little to no Red Dawn bases in between. Unlucky I guess.

Tough, yeah.

But you can also get Storm from Osiron, like almost anything else.

Posting my success in case anyone else finds themselves in the same boat. I learnt about storm from an Osiron Goon in early July 1999. Bit later than usual, but now I can using some of the heavier weapons.

Yay!

This should also unlock more stuff later.
