l mandrake 9 Posted April 13, 2013 (edited) Hello all, I know all eyes are turning to A3, but I wanted to ask if the following mod idea would be feasible in either A2 or A3, thinking especially about Insurgency-type missions. 1. Civilian 'Dickers' - civs with mobile phones who follow NATO/IFOR patrols from 1-3km distance and use cell phones to report their movements to OPFOR commanders. These are usually young men and boys, who are otherwise unarmed. 2. ICOM (intercepted communications) - this means BLUFOR patrols contain a soldier with equipment to intercept the dickers' phone calls and triangulate. Under current ROE in Afghan, if this soldier confirms the patrol is being 'dicked' (British army slang), the civs may be engaged, even if visibly unarmed. 3. Once 'dicked', a patrol could come under attack from vehicle borne OPFOR, i.e in Insurgency mission, cars/trucks full of Takiban fighters would spawn a short distance away and drive into the AOP/ plant IEDs along the expected patrol route. I have zero modding skill so just wanted to put this idea out there and see what modders/scripters think. I think this would take Insurgency-style missions to a whole new level, especially if the 'Dickers' could be played by humans. Of course, if a BLUFOR soldier kills an innocent civ, there would need to be severe game penalties to avoid a 'shoot-on-sight' bloodbath (i.e mission fail).
