the_shadow 0 Posted August 2, 2005 this is great, EDF will be the "best" OPFOR army out there, becouse it´s fictional you can do whatever you want with it without caring about if it´s realistic or not now we just hope you make it a "real" army/Defence force with all from simple unarmed cars to Tanks, Artilleri, Airdefence, boats, choppers and planes... and dont forget the objects there is a lot of stuff they could use... like for example their main heavy truck... could be a Volvo truck that is painted green (sweden, finland, Israel and many other armies use that irl, so it wouldnt be unrealistic) or whatever you choose oh, and btw, i havnt tested this pack yet, but i´ll D/L asap Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Base objects, stuff used by the EDF... all from barrels to containers and field hospitals... actually i think that the EDF use very much containers... like command containers, cooking containers, medic containers, repaircontainers, fuelcontainers and stuff like that containers that very easily can be loaded onto trucks and transported... if needed they should be extendable by connecting multiple containers and/or tents... mostley they should use "hooklift" trucks... such as these Hooklift trucks or other "civilian" trucks like these Trucks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stevevcb 3 Posted August 2, 2005 Considering that Everon's a pretty small island and that this is their defence force, surely they'd just have normal facilities dotted around the island? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Greg147 0 Posted August 2, 2005 Everon's main APC: Is it going to have an MG on the top, or is it just going to be like the BRDM? Or 2 versions Heres some info about it if you need any http://www.armyrecognition.com/europe....ion.htm EDIT: Sorry, didn't realise it was in German. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

fingolfin 1972 Posted August 2, 2005 Wow! Nice addon! I've waited long for armed forces for the BIS-islands. Now some more suggestions: Could you add badge and/or the Everon-flag (btw: was one ever made?) to the soldiers? I also miss some bags or pouches for magazines and hand grenades. Perhaps the different soldier-classes could get different equipment? For example a vest with grenades for the grenadier, bigger ammo-pouches for the machine gunner... How about adding an AT-soldier? The soldiers have body armor, but get killed by one 9mm-bullet. Any chance for an officer with cap/beret? In my opinion a boonie-hat would fit better to the recon-unit than a helmet with goggles. Could you post a list of vehicles planed for the EDF? Anyhow, great job so far! Keep up the awesome work! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ironsight 1 Posted August 2, 2005 Could you add badge and/or the Everon-flag (btw: was one ever made?) to the soldiers? Don't believe there was ever a flag made for Everon. Maybe someone can make it? A badge will be added in the next release though. Quote[/b] ]I also miss some bags or pouches for magazines and hand grenades. Perhaps the different soldier-classes could get different equipment?

Thanks for the offer mate no worries... im not sure how they'd look alongside the troops AND whether they'd suit the type of army they are (i'd see them going with old cold war weapons and equipment than american and brit kit) but like i said, the offer's there.

stevevcb 3 Posted August 2, 2005 My only complaint would be that green and white have been adopted in several addons as Nogova's colours. Other than that, it kicks arse. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
fingolfin 1972 Posted August 2, 2005 I've yust recognized that the NAFP uses a green-white-green flag too. So, I decided to change mine a bit. http://img172.imageshack.us/my.php?image=everonflagblue7jg.jpg Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

This troops really should be more "NATO like", no russian stuff please. MfG Lee yeah I definately agree with both statements...thanks for doing this addon...finally they'll be NEW mission ideas ..maybe even a civil war among the islands..and definately nato equipment would be the way to go...Everon and the rest of the Malden group is more likely to be supported by NATO thank former soviet bloc countries according to the history of the BIS campaigns...I was also thinking...have u determined if the EDF is gonna be the military for the entire Malden island group or just for Malden..the reason I ask is because Everon is REALLY REALLY small compared to the other islands and wouldn't be able to support a respectable size air force with only one small airstrip more suited for small civilian aircraft but if your goal is to make the EDF the defense for the the entire island group then more types of equipment would be feasible..just a thought...

Shadow NX 1 Posted August 2, 2005 Iraqi forces also get stuff rom the us but still have AKsa nd T55s in use so i dont see why there should be absolutely no russian equipment. They should have enough left over from the war. Just my 2 cents Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bikecop 0 Posted August 2, 2005 But think about it... Everon would have probably have more experience in a T72 than a M60. However... I must say a MIX of both US and Soviet equipment would make this pretty cool. Just like my previous suggestions. Plus it would be cheaper to order overstocked T62s or T72s than wait 8 months for the US to rebuild an understocked M60 fleet. Plus the UN would still have SOME bases on the islands. Plus I remember that in the campaigns that some of the russian special forces defected against the hardliners to go train and fight with the militas against Guba. And as little information the milita knew about the russians on there island... they KNEW that they were not on orders from centeral government. I know I am american. But its like telling me to make valentino rossi to buy and race suzuki. AWW!! Meow Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
