massi 772 Posted September 24, 2011 (edited) by massi TAKISTAN SPECIAL BRIGADE for CO Hello, I’m releasing a project, I had only now the time to finish, this pack include the fictional Takistan Special Brigade, the elite force of the Takistan army, trained by western special forces before the war , with the purpose of gain stability to the country and avoid the war, but as we know the project failed, and western forces are now facing an harder opponent. The purpose of this addon is, in fact, to enhance a little bit the Takistan army combat power, and give to players a stronger opponent in this faction. NOTE: every models have reworked RVMAT, in order to have working Wounds Textures for all of them, and an improved gear, so they’ve all NVGs, and some use rangefinders and Laser designators. Shortly a vehicles pack for these units is coming ,too !!! Description This addon is a retexture of some A2OA units (Czech, Un, and Taki SF models), made to represent a variety of units of the fictional Takistan Special Brigade. This Brigade has been trained by western SF before the war, and for this reason those units are equipped with western gear and weapons, they've at their disposal NV goggles and other technological gear too. This Special Brigade ,the elite force of Takistan army, includes: - 1st Btg Special Forces: those units are the elite army forces, they're mostly equipped with M16, and they wear western gear too.They comes in several camo (woodland, desert and urban), they're divided in heavy and light (recon) gear,and snipers in ghillie suite too, in order to give them the maximum range of flexibility and make them able to operate in every environment. - 3rd Btg Commando: those units are a kind of covert operation army branch, they're mostly equipped with AK74,they're the most explosive trained unit in Takistan and they wear western gear too. They comes in 2 camo (desert DPM, and multi environment DPM ), ,and snipers in ghillie suite too, they're divided in heavy and light (recon) gear, in order to give them the maximum range of flexibility and make them able to operate in every environment, like SF. - 16th Light Infantry Regiment: those units are the support elements for SF and commando operations, they're equipped with AK74 and they comes in woodland camo, anyway they can operate whether in woodland and desert terrain, and they've their own pilot and crew, too. - 26th Airborne Regiment: those units are other support elements for SF and commando operations, they're equipped with M16 and they comes in woodland camo, anyway they can operate whether in woodland and desert terrain, like light infantry they have also a light gear and beret version model too. This addon has been made to enhance the Opfor faction, in order to improve a little bit the Takistan combat capability. Installation. Put the addons in the "mod folder" of your preference, you will find the units in the editor under: OPFOR - Takistan Special Brigade by the following types : - 1st Special Forces Btg (sorted by different camos)- 3rd Commando Btg (sorted by different camos) - 16th Light Infantry Regiment - 26th Airborne Regiment The same works for the GROUPS in group menu. Requirements. This addon requires Arma 2 Combined Operations (A2 + OA) to run , because it uses OA models, and some A2 weapons. ACE2 config files Installation. Just put the ACE2 Optional Config (called "mas_tak_unit_ACE.pbo") in the modfolder of your preference , this file will automatically hide standard Special Brigade units, and will show only the ACE ones, equipped with ACE gear.

Skagget 11 Posted September 27, 2011 Really nice work, I DL it all and checked them all out. Got a feel for a more "elite" force of Takistan, looked really good. Only problem is that its one PBO for it all. If I wanted one set I would have to drag the whole 100mb PBO just for it. The only comment in that regard.
