so I gotta ask, did the devs even bother play testing this? you'd think someone in the beta for Flashpoint would have been like "hey I found unbeatable levels, you might want to fix this before launch." I'm not even all that mad, and i really like the DLC over all, but my curiosity is getting the better of me here. This is not a case of come back when I'm stronger and try again, it is a case of the level cannot be beat. I want to make it clear, this is on an iron man save file that has beaten the main campaign so I literally have the best mechs in the game. I've run this mission three times, and the only time I beat it was when all of the enemy mechs were medium and heavies, not assaults and heavies and the game spawned in an allied lance of fire support mechs with lots of LRMs. In effect, you have six turns to plant your metal robot butt on the beacon sights while 12-16 heavy and assault mechs unload on you beacuse if you start on turn seven, you lose. The issue is that these beacons are out of mutual supporting range, so your mechs must split up to reach all of them in time, and there are 12 to 16 assault and heavy mechs on the map who really, really, want to kill you. something else happens and then the mission is completed. Each beacon requires the mech to stand in a very small area for two turns. There is a heavily defended base and you have 8 turns to plant 3 beacons around it.
However, after installing Flashpoint, I have been handed two missions in the span of about 12 hours that are literally impossible. There are very few missions that I find to be to difficult to complete, and those that are to difficult are usually because the enemy spawns within LOS of a base and shoots down one of the buildings before you can move a mech between them and the base. So I've played Battletech for about 200 hours, and I think I'm pretty well versed in the nuaces of the game.
