Tease...

I'm afraid this game will never see the light of day.

I seem to remember highway of death video from the last Gulf War showing highway signs in Arabic and English. I think its the same in Kuwait and Saudi Arabia as well.

I posted the video on youtube per copywrite instructions.

Thanks.

If Iran could defeat the Coalition in Iraq, the whole of the Arabian peninsula would be open to them. Scary thought, but hopefully the Russians and Turks wouldn't want to see that happen.

So since marksmen and snipers haven't been coded yet....

The Syrians are gonna put a jihad on BF.C for this Crusade...

Nice find.

Nice find.

Nice find.

i find it funny in a morbid way that the Sunnis hate the US and allies so much, yet we are probably the only thing saving them from a full blown Shi'a assault.

I dont want Russians unless they are defending Stalingrad!

I'm sure the Turks would be willing to occupy the Kurdish region. Probably wouldn't even have to ask them. They'd just show up the moment "Kurdistan" was announced.

"Civilized fighting..." lol.

Reminds me of a quote from John Goodman in The Big Lebowski: "Say what you want about the tenents of National Socialism, Dude, at least it's an ethos." I tend to believe the Bush administration and the Pentagon knew that an insurgency and civil war were possible, they just didn't want us to think about it, so they avoided talking about it. They probably thought they would whip a minor Sunni insurgency and the Shi'a would worship us as heroes and the streets of America would flow with pride and oil. I still believe we lost in Iraq when we failed to crush the Sunni insurgency when it first began to flair up. Maybe thats too simplistic. I don't know for sure.

They can't do that now, real civil war would break out which would most likely make the current bloodshed look like a tea party. The Coalition cannot win until the Iraqi government can defend itself from the insurgency. It seems obvious they are still a long way from that point, sadly.

Looks impressive...

If systems like this are going to be modelled, I would be interested in learning how it will work.

Ops in Afghanistan would be cool. Whatever scenario editor is available will be put to use by me creating Afghan/Pakistan WoT scenarios.

How about just put it in Iraq? Just say no to fictional.

Buddy of mine posted this "aar" shortly before he returned home from Iraq. He drove a tank and recounts his combat experiences in this thread on my forum. http://www.madcowssteakhouse.com/viewtopic.php?t=11056 Here is a piece of it, from fighting in Tal Afar: The rest of his long post is at the link above.

IF there are no civilians in the game, as I assume from an earlier post, then the enemy in civilian clothing is just for looks or is their some other aspect to this? Are they harder to spot or something? Follow-up question. Can I mod a pair of Air Jordans onto my Syrian insurgents?

I bet thats gonna look pretty.

I saw a report on Fox News about the 172 Stryker brigade who just got back to Iraq for tour number two. They mentioned that they had not lost a Stryker to a road side bomb.
