Merc 0 Posted October 14, 2003 Hey all, my name is Merc, or Bill if you prefer, I'm new to the forums but not new to OFP. Here is my question. Thanks to teams like BAS, Tales of War, Falklands mod... and Individuals like Martin and Scorpio, we have new kick ass addons. Such as Delta Force, Rangers... etc. What about unconventional warriors. I don't really have any knowledge of making addons, but I was curious if anyone was considering making something like this anyhow: Mercenary- The basic "trigger puller" working for the highest bidder. Could be placed under resistance and utilize a variety of firearms and tactics. Spooks - Kinda like blackops, but less comical. Face it, it's easier to blend in like these guys, then to wear black jumpsuits and facemasks. Green Berets - Ah yes, the pride of the United States military. Although most of them look like Grizzly Adams on crack, they are some of the most specially trained reaction forces in the world. Once again, I don't know much about this kind of stuff. But I thought that I would throw these thoughts of mine out there to inspire the OFP community. ---> Merc Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Frenchman 0 Posted October 14, 2003 Well first may I welcome you to BI forums. Well lets see......hmmmmm There is mercenaries in the HK pack. Im not sure if anyone made some new spooks..... As for green berets I would use the BAS rangers and replace the arm texture. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Merc 0 Posted October 14, 2003 Thanks for the welcome. I didn't remember the HK pack having Mercs, but I'll go give it another try. ---> Merc Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bn880 5 Posted October 15, 2003 Thinking outside the box, let me do a shameless plug here then Sinews of War Not about addons, but possibly will make the best missions with the addons you mention. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Major Fubar 0 Posted October 15, 2003 I have long dreamed about a Merc/SOF campaign where you accumulate money after each mission, with which to buy better equipment, vehciles and hire other mercs to help you on your misisons... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Face it, it's easier to blend in like these guys, then to wear black jumpsuits and facemasks. For the mercs, as people have pointed out, there are mercs in the HK pack, but there is also a great resistance addon coming out from Aeon that will include some troops in "mismatched" cammo.. For the spooks, if you mean troops who just look like ordinary civvies, you could always just arm a civvy and set his side to Resistance or whatever... ................................................

ruff 102 Posted October 15, 2003 i think he meant those guys in the close protection group hu are dressed half in civ and half in army clothes or the cia field agents, or cia sas the hk pack the mercs in the hk pack are too good, all the units in the hk actually are too good, hard to kill, easy for u to die i believe u should wait for the jam version so it will be more realistic Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sentry47 0 Posted October 16, 2003 Someone needs to make a back to the future delorean and a Chevy suburban with a really good minigun on the roof (gunner spot is out the skylight) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Major Gripe 0 Posted October 16, 2003 Someone needs to make a back to the future delorean and a Chevy suburban with a really good minigun on the roof (gunner spot is out the skylight) Do they actually put miniguns on Suburbans? It sounds like something from Mad Max! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Consigliere 0 Posted October 16, 2003 I think he's referring to the GsH-23 cannon equipped Suburban from The Jackal. Personally, I'd love to see just a black Suburban with black tinted windows, like in Traffic (great movie) which could be used by,say, CIA operatives, or paramilitary forces Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
