MISSION EDITOR
The Mission Editor allows you to create single, and multiplayer missions anywhere in the world!
Platforms for sixteen countries as well as civilian objects are available for placement in your
scenarios. In the Mission Editor you can create scenarios that place a player in command of a
Seawolf, an Improved Akula or Akula II, or a 688(I) Improved Los Angeles class submarine.
By using the Probability of Inclusion,Random Start Boxes, and Dynamic Groups features you can
randomize your missions so they play differently each time!
