Introduction Who in lawless lands will stand up for the weak? Poor mexican village is harassed by brutal banditos. The villagers grow desperate and finally decide to resist. But what chance these poor folk may have against well armed gang of marauders? They weren’t able to buy enough weapons with these very few posessions, they have left. Instead they found seven gunslingers for hire, brave souls ready to defend the poor against the oppression of the wicked. After all – in these lawless lands men are cheaper than guns. Details This scenario is simple, quick-to-play MP mode, where players job is to save village from brutal bandits attack. It is a spin-off of the Seven Samurai scenario. Although it can be played solo, SP even, it is meant for COOP. This is my very first project of such nature, I never made anything MP-focused before and that's exactly why I wanted to create just once something of that kind. The village is picked each play at random from any proper locations found on the map (Altis, although porting to other maps should be very easy). Randomized is also available gear (the content from owned DLCs and loaded mods should be potentially included) and hostiles. Scenario includes several mission parameters, that allow to customize the tactical and enviromental factors from the lobby. Melee mode requires KA Weapons Pack NEW (melee mode will autodisable if mod not present). It should be considered experimental, fun mode, work best in solo gameplay, there may be glitches for non-server players. Rules: 1. Players start inside the safe zone. As long any player is out of the safe zone, the countdown is going to zero. 2. When the countdown is ended, the safe zone is removed and the attacks will begin soon. 3. Players can arm themselves from the boxes located in the center of the safe zone, at the flagpole. 4. Bandits will attack from random directions in random waves. 5. If too many villagers die - the mission is lost. 6. If all Magnificent are dead - the mission is lost. 7. If all bandits are dead - the mission is won. 8. Civilians will 'shout' about known hostiles near using 3D exclamation mark icon over their heads. Color of the mark indicates how close the enemy is (green - far, yellow - close, red - very close). 9. Player names change colors depending on player's status: dead - dark red; generating noise/speaking - white; incapacitated - purple-red; no ammo - yellow; critical wounds - reddish; serious wounds - purpleish; moderate wounds - blueish; all OK - blue. 10. There's no respawn, only spectating mode after death, but revival is often possible. Porting: Need to be confirmed yet, but seems, that porting is as easy, as changing map name in mission folder name, so for example: MagnificentSeven.MCN_HazarKot -> MagnificentSeven.Altis. Target map should have some "NameVillage" locations with at least 9 enterable buildings in 200 meters radius around.

Without weaponry scenario is unplayable in practice, so at least some of them should be loaded, all of them - recommended. CUP Units CUP Weapons IFA3_AIO_LITE Project Infinite Nolosha Pack Western Notes The basic premise is based on The Magnificent Seven movie by John Sturges, which in turn is a remake of Seven Samurai movie by Akira Kurosawa. I highly recommend to watch these classics, knowing them helps you feel and tune in better during the gameplay.

Old West - Wild West Map Description: Have you ever thought of playing actual western-type sandbox in ArmA III? It could happen really soon. The Old West is the first mission-map for ArmA III, that is set up in the American Wild West. It is made on Altis, though it doesn't look like one. It was remade with old west architecture to feel the entourage. And you know what is the most exciting thing here? It's 100% vanilla. Plot: You're living in a harsh world of the American Old West. The world is actually set up in Monument Valley, Arizona-Utah, USA. There is a lot of locations. Towns, villages, Native Americans tribes and etc. Towns are living, saloons, stores, churches, and other places are waiting for you to come (and spend some money, if you want). Snapshots: https://imgur.com/a/3CuC6 (old) https://imgur.com/gallery/TmphF9l (new) Features: Big map Western atmosphere Ambient music script Enterable stores and saloons Many more... Optional content: DBO_Horses Project Infinite - All In One Status: Still in development. Approximate release date: very soon.

Recently read a wiki entry that mentioned an old game that BI tried to develop that took place in the old west. Did anything ever come of that? Is there an Arma Mod that deals with the Old West say 1865-1905? I love some of the old west RPG games such as Boot Hill and Sidewinder or Aces and Eights and Red Dead redemption was a classic. An Altis Life taking place in the old west seems ideal.

Navajo Lake State Park - Old West Map Description: Recently I've started creating map for my Wild West sandbox - Old West. Navajo Lake State Park is a namesake of a place in USA, New-Mexico. It's 1024x1024 m. It takes place in the mid 19th century, in a time of Wild West era. Geography: It has a big lake named Navajo. Also has mountains, deserts, semi-arid areas and even a little snow! There will be built little towns, farms, villages and also some of the Native American tribes. Plans: Fix map terrain. Update new sat map to a high-quality one (very boring and not necessary). Change map mask. Add foliage. Add buildings. Release it in 1 or a half of a year. Requirements: Apex DLC CUP Terrains - Core Mattaust Buildings Pack Snapshots: Changelog:
