The ronin still look more like the ragtag team that would barely manage to pull of the heist though. They have the look down. Like Ocean's 11, only with, like, 6.

What about a mission with more freedom?

You're timed, and your goal is to get as much gold as you can, and get out before the police arrive. There could even be a bit of Lua that calculates your score based on time taken and gold collected.

Or is this already planned?

I write some little thing on the previous page.
I hope somebody will make this. It would be way cool to rush into a bank with ronins.
Or BW: Mercs. Never tried that mod. UniTech was good enough for me.

NINJAEDIT: Why not make it so that you are ronins and when you are spotted they will be sending BW: Mercs to intercept you?

For one, Coalition have an easy enough time killing Ronin, Mercs will utterly squash them (they're also a bit bigger than bunker tunnels iirc, though I could be wrong on that). Besides, that would make downloading the Mercs a requirement for playing the mission.

Yes, ronins are pretty useless if compared to Coalition. Why not make it so that the ronins respawn, and when you run out of time the Coalition gets their police reinforcements? After sounding the alarm, of course. Dafred would be some kind of brains and if he dies, you lose.
Is that a good idea?

No respawning needed (not having it adds a bit of challenge and a sense of actually controlling a team of rebels), my case was purely anti-Mercs. So, yeah, it's an excellent idea.

Maybe Ronin hired Browncoats to do the dirty job? And Dafred is leading them? Then there would be a lot of Coalition with something like mauler shotguns or something.
