fingolfin 1972 Posted January 22, 2017 This add-on depicts generic North-Caucasian rebel forces in different types of clothing and equipment and Russian special and regular forces (Army, VDV, MVD and OMON) based on the mods done by the Red Hammer Studios. The aim is to have an enemy faction for RHS AFRF which only requires the RHS mods. The rebel units are equipped with older soviet-style weapons, use 6SH92, Vydra 3M and Serbian MD-99 vest and wear a variety of different uniforms and headgear. Please note that the gear and equipment of the units isn’t a 100% according to their real-life counterparts, but since I can’t model, it’s the closest I could get. The Russian forces come in many different camo variants and carry the appropriate gear for a 2000 till 2012 timeframe. It’s recommended to use this add-on with ASCZ Heads or other beard add-ons.

CannonSong 688 Posted January 22, 2017 Nicely done! These fellows will make for fine cannon fodder OPFOR! They fit the stuff available in RHS well, and I can already see myself using them in some low-intensity skirmishes... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Have you thought of doing some 3 colour desert retextures with the black boots changed to coyote? These models make perfect BDU,s except for small issues with the boots.

It’s a bit out of scope for this mod, but I’ll keep it in mind if I’ll ever come around to doing an Iraqi/Syrian faction. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Basher_Henrik 322 Posted January 23, 2017 Nice addon, thanks you. But how about change faces to iranian? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fingolfin 1972 Posted January 23, 2017 @CollaborationistThe Iranian faces would be too dark in my opinion. The Greek faces aren’t perfect, that’s why I recommend the ASCZ faces or other bearded faces. I just didn’t want to add another add-on requirement. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

autigergrad 2034 Posted January 23, 2017 1. Thanks for the nifty addon. 2. Thanks for the convenience of a Steam Workshop download. 3. I wanted to ask if you planned on doing a steam download for your Afghan forces as well (although I know you have many more dependencies on that faction) Great stuff all the way around fin.

I read up on his biography and he (or a character like him) would be an excellent protagonist for a RHS campaign. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
