In playing the HDS 9, 01.0 Surprise in the Snow mission as the Russians (Red Force), I encountered a strange issue.
I know that Blue orders were to only engage me if they detected hostile intent.
So being Russian I maintained EMCON Alpha and did nothing to initiate hostile intent since I was not happy with the aircraft loadouts I decided to reload all my aircraft.
Imagine my surprise when my ships are attacked by NATO forces for no apparent reason.
Of course in the Russian tradition of self defense I was forced to shoot the rogue aircraft down in waves as they attacked my ships.
My question is... Is there some kind of logic or conditional setup in the mission setup that tells it to only attack me if I attack them or does it automatically start with a war footing?
If there is a conditional, what is required to set it?

The AI hates you with a passion, and does not care one iota about your ROE. (In other words, you always start on a war footing).

Yeah, if it's the opposite color, it's gonna shoot at you. 

The ROEs in the mission orders are just there to give you a more difficult scenario, if you choose to abide by any rules laid out in them.  There's no scripting I've noticed for changing hostilities in a running game.

Conditional postures can be set in a limited way within Harpoon ANW. Unfortunately, they don't currently exist in HCE.
