icebreakr 3156 Posted July 21, 2018 IceBreakr presents: Southeast Angola 1974 Latest version: v1.3 (Apr 28, 2019) Previous release: v1.1 Aug 15, 2018 Terrain: 10240x10240 meters / HD Island has been created in honor of Recce 1 Commando Lt. Freddie Zeelie that died in combat operation in 1974. Island is set to year 1974 when South Africa's 1 Recce Commando Unit operated from FOBs in the North Namibia. The South African "Recces" were deployed to many local hot spots during the late 1970s and early 1980s, particularly Angola. Namibia-Angola border had no fence at that time, only visible cutout grass (line) about 1/4 down from the North tip of the map. There is only one FOB in central South region with an operational airstrip. Back in 1974 most of the land has been without any roads and permanent settlements, so we try to simulate that harsh environment in this map. But I've added some roads for AI to somehow cope with the harsh terrain. Map is dedicated to heroes of the war and used by South African SF soldiers that also enjoy Arma 3. And hopefully rest of you, too 😉 Screenshots: Media: 1.

badanov 116 Posted July 21, 2018 (edited) A few suggestions. I flew over the terrain for 30 minutes and I did not find any villages, not even huts. The only landmarks in the terrain are the crossroads, the border and the airstrip. Combatants have to fight for something other than crossroads. May I suggest adding a few watering holes, about ten, scattered about the border and some tiny villages nearby. I suggest the watering holes be marked, not necessarily the villages. My limited reading of the area was that the rebels relied on locals for food and water. The terrain itself is challenging with just the tracks. Challenges for players would be no electronic navigation aids, such as GPS. Edited July 21, 2018 by badanov Mispelling 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
FallujahMedic -FM- 867 Posted July 21, 2018 I shall be joining you this evening @icebreakr ! Its most likely not going to be PVP, but I'm sure Icebreakr will give players an opportunity to kill me if they so desire. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
badanov 116 Posted July 21, 2018 2 hours ago, Gruntini said: Looking good. As badanov said, some structures here and there would be nice. Just a handful of scattered villages would improve this greatly, I think. This terrain is terrifically good, one of his best. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
icebreakr 3156 Posted July 21, 2018 There are watering holes... 3 of them to be exact. But you need a good tracker to find them haha ;) Also there are around 11 huts and even more small shacks. But yeah, in 1974 there weren't many there and nomadic life didn't call for the permanent housing. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
autigergrad 2034 Posted July 22, 2018 @icebreakr Will Rowalla be similar in style to this regarding landscape? This is a beautiful terrain. Well done. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
corporal_lib[br] 396 Posted July 22, 2018 Wow, That looks awesome! Is this kinda replacement for Tonal or it is still on the works? BTW, is there any armaholic mirror or a link for dl it from your site? My steamworkshop is bugged (I can dl missions but the mods are a lost case) and I still use mods the good ol way =) Cheers and kudos, as always ;) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
b3lx 161 Posted July 22, 2018 Icebreakr! You are the best map maker! But not much of a political commentator! Congratulations for the wonderful terrain, this is one of the must haves Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Spearpoint 291 Posted July 22, 2018 Great map! Looks like it'll be fantastic for Tank battles 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nichols 243 Posted July 22, 2018 I can't wait to make a for real ALiVE mission with some custom objectives that you as a player have to patrol to find....maybe setup some triggers that will give bearings and distance like a sighting report coming in over the radio...hmmmmm.
