I wish a simple anim for the map would have been included. Oh well.

Yes... very good map. I love Kabul - lots of great places to fight from. Lots of mouse holes and cover/concealment. The map is also styled so that every major area is separated by a large mountain range - creating the illusion that everything is far away from everything else, yet you've always got the Hindu Kush in the background.

This will certainly tide me over until Cat Sh*t One's Afghan map comes out.

PS - for a lot of fun, do a tank hunt in Kabul with some BAS Rangers and Sigma-6's Iraqi Asad Al Babel (sp?) tanks. Fun!!!

You and your mission advocacy. wink.gif

I think I'll wait till Bibmi's 3rd World Armies addon comes out. I think that ought to make things a little more interesting. I like my atmosphere.. no fun chasing down Iraqi tanks in an Afghan city when they're supported by Russian soldiers. It's fun when you're chasing Iraqi tanks in an Afghan city with lots of African militia getting in your way. biggrin.gif

I hope you'll throw in some Japanese Red Army fighters, so that there will be at least a minimal amount of variety.

Hmm.. I don't have them, but I do have some Baluchistani-Argentine Maoist rebels. Will they do, even if they're only armed with rocks and crude shark-tooth spiked clubs?

Cat Sh*ts map is seriously gonna own all other maps so much, it looks allmost photorealistic.

If you havent seen it yet then head on over to the www.ofpec.com forums and check it out, its under addon-editing post 1985.

I dont think the rules allow me to post a link?!? confused.gif

The key part there is other than those strictly relating to OFP matters obviously something from ofpec would be relating to Opf thus perfectly allowable smile.gif

It looks like a nice island with cave and stuff

Back on topic, jelalhabat is a very nice island  wow.gif  smile.gif

Even more good islands, is this going to be daily?  wink.gif  biggrin.gif<span id='postcolor'>

Ahh yeah I spent an enjoyable lunch the other week looking through all of CatShitOne's screenshots, really is looking quality smile.gif

Nice to see people working on new islands but they really need to be supported with missions/campaigns or there isn't much point, I guess that one is mainly up to the talented editors in the community smile.gif

I really like it, however I do not understand why all island makers use the ruins for Middle Eastern islands. It's not like every Middle Eastern country has been bombed into oblivion, and even if Afghanistan was, it's not all in ruins.

In this map, only Kabul (from what I've seen thus far) is really totally destroyed. And if you've seen pics of Kabul elsewhere, most of it really is destroyed. There is a very nice, relatively undamaged city in the SW corner of the map. While it looks a bit European, it does kind of remind me of what I saw in the Middle East when I was there. Whitewashed houses and whatnot.

I think the taliban pack is quite overating... they don't have big long beards like ancient chinamen or tutankhamun... it's all too stereotypical.

Other than that... nice. smile.gif

True. It's not like all Arabs have gigantic beards, towels on their heads, and those white dress type things. The original UCE Middle Eastern terrorists were terrific because that's probably how terrorists, militia, rebels, etc, most likely dress in their location. Oh and if someone's going to make Arab's, don't make them have the default random BIS faces, people in the Middle East are going to have a tanned complexion. Make them have forced faces instead, like the TOW marines or the NVA/VC in the Nam Pack 2.

Um, Afghans aren't arabs, and they live in Central Asia.   smile.gif

But still, what we REALLY need is for BIS to put those muslims from VBS-1 into circulation...

these guys right here

...or some creative type to make something similar.

edit: a little off-topic, but anyone visiting Albuquerque needs to have a meal at the Tora Bora House. Afghan food is simply amazing.
