    RHS Escalation (AFRF and USAF)

    Basically in the editor you have the normal US army and when you select classes such as Rifleman, Team leader etc. they all have no shoulder flashes. if you go to the US paratrooper classes and select just a regular rifleman he has the 101st uniform. Also i know that you have an option to select a '101st rifleman' alongside '82nd rifleman' under the desert paratroopers (strangely not available for the woodland paratroopers) but if you just select a regular 'rifleman' class he also has 101st uniform. don't know if that makes sense, and if you would like me to put it on the feedback tracker i can. But yeah hope that clears stuff up for you.

    RHS Escalation (AFRF and USAF)

    Just checked out your US parachutists and saw they have 101st patches. Has that division been moved from air assault to parachute infantry recently? Cause i thought 82nd was the only parachute infantry unit in the US army, so if anyone has any info on this i'd be interested to learn :)

    love new faction guys :D really good job on this. makes me excited for the future, and motivated to play around with making missions again :)
  5. It sounds extremely weird....but i like it :lol: At the end of the day for me ASTFOR is more than just a hobby, its some really good friends. Outside of the team though as a whole with the people on the forum its a community of like minded friendly people....maybe even a family. Hell i started out as just a guy who made a joke on the forum and now i write essay length bits of history for these guys hahahaha. I'm really privileged to be a part of this cause we're not just making a unit pack, we are making a nation in every sense except real life. So yeah time to get sappy and say thanks to the team, and thanks to the community for all coming together and trying to push the limits of creativity. Now try beating that level of weirdness ;)
  6. well that's the objective. if someone turns around and says 'wait Asteland isn't a real place?' then i'll be happy :)
  7. yes the 'Der Nordvind' battalion (name may be changed) was an SS battalion made up of defectors from the Asteland isles. i based them off similar units that were created by the SS from Norwegian, Polish, Russian, and even some British defectors. about 4 posts above yours you can find a mention of them
  8. Today you lucky lot you have me instead of Jones for the Sunday WIP. the following statement has been sanctioned by team lead: 'Sunday WIP is itself a WIP' so yeah, you never know you might get the scheduled broadcast from old Jones, but if not i'll summarize. Lots of work done, progress being made, will be ready when its ready. hope those of you who are students are doing well in yer finals/exams/whatever else you guys call them. those of you who work.....hope its enjoyable and stuff. Wait out on the next WIP report whenever it comes, and yeah have a good one.

    War Chronicles: The Forgotten War

    Meh at the end of the day its a type 99, which correct me if i'm wrong the community didn't have before you made a crack at it. So like texture stuff aside, well done on the model, must have taken a while :)

    That's interesting, i was always told its 3x magnification. Wonder if the LDS has different lenses, or someone somewhere has got it wrong (probably my end) Edit: Quick google job, found out the problem is my end. I've been lied to once again! :lol:

    War Chronicles WW2 Modification

    well looking at it the others don't seem to be as accurate as you guys were aiming for. Like i'm sure mcaber would agree. I understand where you guys are coming from, but i do hope you don't decide to give up. You were striving for something glorious.
  16. yeah there was, Singapor and places like that

    Guys this is sad news indeed. I'm sorry this happened to you.
  18. if I'm honest I'd say the Defence Force Ireland is something you guys should look into in depth. I get they aren't exactly Nordic, but i mean how they operate and how your backstory is for Asteland they are kinda similar. Slatts your more than welcome to correct me on this cause i'm guessing you were actually in the DFI (especially on if that's actually what they call themselves) As far as i know they're pretty big players on the peace keeping side of things, for example lebanon. They are also quite a good demonstration on a force more geared towards the defense of their homeland rather than offensive operations, although they do have the rangers to give a bit of a punch if they need to. So yeah i'd strongly recommend giving them a gander.
  19. you could grab those extra people from the Ammunition technicians in your logistics corps. Those guys are pretty much the same as EOD but with some differences (i don't know what but i'm sure someone will point it out) make some kind of combined arms unit from engineers and logistics for dealing with the disposal of explosives. Edit: having said that though guys, you are creating your own armed forces from scratch. Like different traditions and policies are the reasons why each countries armed forces are all slightly different. Like genuinely if you had the right backstory you could have bomb disposal in your air force. In fact our air force medics are pretty highly trained with explosives because they have to be able to disarm all weapons on and around the patient, that includes his sidearm and the explosive bolts on the ejector seats, and i also think it extends to ordinance on the plane. So with military jets carrying bombs on the regular, you could have EOD formed from specialist ground crewmen. I know someone will probably have a problem with this but meh, its your own country, your own armed forces, do what you want.
  20. In Britain the role is covered by our armored regiments, so that could make things a bit easier on organisation.
  21. meh I'd be happy to do it.
  22. Next your gonna tell me you've gone ahead and modeled those damn penguins as well :lol: genuinely you guys are blowing me away. Like seriously I'm starting to feel like when i was 5 and it was Christmas eve. Brilliant work guys :D
  23. I genuinely wouldn't be surprised, with your teams attention to detail, if you release a tourist guide to Astoria with this mod :lol:
  24. the fact that you guys have created your own armed forces is staggering and hats off to you, but the little details like creating a weapon manufacturer and even gone as far as to creating a re branding of the logo in 1996, is what has made me fall in love with this project.

    Infantry are the most important guys on the battlefield, everything else is just there to support you. This is what happens when you try to take a building without infantry.
