Rhodesy77 11 Posted May 23, 2011 (edited) US Army Rangers The 75th Ranger Regiment is a lethal, agile and flexible force, capable of executing a myriad of complex, joint special operations missions in support of U.S. policy and objectives. Today’s Ranger Regiment is the Army’s premier raid force. Each of the four geographically dispersed Ranger battalions are always combat ready, mentally and physically tough and prepared to fight the War on Terrorism. Their capabilities include air assault and direct action raids seizing key terrain such as airfields, destroying strategic facilities, and capturing or killing enemies of the Nation. Rangers are capable of conducting squad through regimental size operations using a variety of infiltration techniques including airborne, air assault and ground platforms. The Regiment remains an all-volunteer force with an intensive screening and selection process followed by combat-focused training. Rangers are resourced to maintain exceptional proficiency, experience and readiness. The 75th Ranger Regiment is a proud unit and a team of teams serving the Nation - Rangers Lead The Way!"

metalcraze 290 Posted May 23, 2011 Blue gloves don't fit. I also noticed that the helmet doesn't render as a part of the shadows (incl. player's) and it also disappears on some units in the distance. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

2nd ranger 282 Posted May 23, 2011 Great-looking units! Possible bug: Machinegunners seem to be Czech. Can anyone reproduce? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rhodesy77 11 Posted May 23, 2011 Not a bug, more intended, will prolly change it, the MG'ers are wearing face masks, and if set as US they african american faces clip through the mask, justa temp fix untill i redo the mask.

fingolfin 1972 Posted May 23, 2011 Great looking rangers! There's one problem with the helmets and black faces (but I think you are aware of this) so there's just one thing bothering me: Could you remove the backpack from the marksman and add it as a new backpack object that can be added to all units via init? Thanks! :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
