    As i said this is mostly because for 0.1 we mostly used projects we had already released as standalone or were workign on since a while, some things like the GAZ-66 are actually as old as A2, the BTR-70 even older, first attempts at new soldiers were for A1 and so on.

    In the next versions there will be old but still used stuff, yes but also many relative new things, for example something to replace the aged BTR-70 and so on.

    AFRF will never be the newest equipment shown on exhibitions mod but it will be something in the middle. :)

    Besides for the more modern stuff BIS already added some nice things to use like the BTR-90s and such.

    What does it mean??

    I think it was just a missunderstanding from Kis4m3 side.

    Guess he took that Post War Soldiers as a offense.

    Personally i would like to have such units with Ssh-68s and stuff but i doubt that will ever be added.

    @McLupo

    Thanks for the article, nice read and also some very nice screenshots there, they would fit well in the screenshot thread on the main section.

    For starters i think there will be the typical 1P29 and a Cobra, about the rest we will see.

    About the timeframe discussion, well most of the stuff was being worked on when RHS still made single Addon releases, as we didnt want to trash perfectly fine addons we included them.

    If i have a wide range of BMP1 to several BMP2 variants, should we really not include the older ones because they arent modern enough?

    Same for the T-80s, we had the B,BVs etc but no Us yet so we included them.

    In the end it leaves more freedom for the mission designers i think.

    Also dont forget that current stuff is developed directly for the Mod project and thus will be mostly newer stuff, Digicam Troops, Tigr etc...

    MTLB the Therminator? Thats rly one of most addons, i would like to see in Arma 2, i believe it will be overpowered AT same as Tunguska AA. :)

    You mean the BMPT, we talked about the MTLB which is more of a troop carrier, arty, AT gun towing workhorse.

    PuFu once startet to model a BMPT but that one is far from being finished if not abandoned by him due to lack of time.

    Brings us back to what Soul said a page before, if we make it as strong as a M1A2 ( which it isnt in reality as much as i love T-80s ) then what if we include a U or even a T-90 variant in the future?

    Its not like we didnt discuss this internally a few times already, the older T-80 variants are simply not much of a match against the M1A2 modern ammunition.

    Not to mention that due to its simple Armor system ArmA2 isnt giving a addonmaker much freedom when it comes to big differences between vehicles apart from giving it more hitpoints.

    With luck the Us find their way into the 0.2.x version and things may get more even.

    The russian soldier looks nice although on the dark screen i cant make out all details, best is to take them having the units face the sun not opposite.

    The funny thing is while you expand to your own OPFOR we ( or at least i ) think about spicing up our BluFor namely the CDF a little more though not nearly as extensive as in Project CDF :)

    If i only knew... memory on that one fails me in regards to who made it, what unit exactly were used etc... i think the name was simply RHS Convoi or something.

    Searched up and down but cant find it anywhere, i think it was never oficially released by us but rather usermade using our units.

    On the other hand, if you plan to make one like this i pm you all i remember and send you the speechfiles i have later.

    Yes, we discussed that internally before and came to no really good solution, if you make the bags with straps removeable the straps will cause some uggly clipping on units that dont fit the model, if we make the units without the straps it looks kinda silly too.

    @W0lle

    No thats not it, as far as i remember it played on Nogova in a hilly area, you had a BTR-80 ( from Ak74Ms APC pack i think ) as lead, you were part of a russian Mot.Inf group and could order the convoi to move and stop only.

    Enemy was the chechen troops included in the APC pack.

    You had 45 mins to get the Trucks to the destination so another Unit gets fresh Ammo.

    Im not sure but i think it used our last released Infantry units for OFP.

    Nice, thanks W0lle, new missions are always welcome especially if they remind me of the OFP classics i played a hundred times :)

    Btw, does anyone by chance still have the mission from OFP that features RHS russian troops that had to guide a convoi to a target destination within 45mins?

    You could tell it to stop or move and it was neatly designed so it was hard to do it in 45mins but definaly possible... would be very awesome to have that one in A2 aswell.

    Especially as i have a bunch of good russian voiceovers for it that werent used back then.

    Cant remember how it was named and who made it... many years since then :o

    Alex is perfectly on time as usual, thanks mate.

    Also thanks to everyone involved with this project, and to everyone supporting RHS and AFRF.

    And now guys enjoy the mod and i hope i see some kickass screenies later today :)
