CMBS: Ukrainian Marines In Field Toad Camouflage By Oleksandr

This is a huge mod what will replace standard ukrainian uniform with two new ones: Ukrainian “Assault Suit” and “Mabuta Mk-2” both in Field Toad Camouflage.

Ukrainian Marines and Special Forces are wearing both types of uniforms finished in this unique camouflage.


It was created by the same company what created “Varan Camouflage” and Mabuta-Mk 2 uniform – P1G-Tac.

Wearing this uniform your units will perfectly fit in the game.

This is how Mabuta Mk-2 will look like in the game (you might remember that uniform by using my first mod “Mabuta Mk-2 Varan Camo”):

This is how Assault Suit will look like:

 
Units in the game will be predominantly wear Assault uniforms while fewer soldiers will be wearing Mabuta Mk-2 (its way more expensive).
All the gear was reworked accordingly – for example knee protection:

 or helmets 


Patches of Ukrainian Marines were added as well.

NOTE: This mod will not work with my “Varan Mabuta Mk-2” mod. You need to delete it before using this one. But you will lose nothing because Mabuta Mk-2 itself is part of this mod, although it is covered by a different camouflage now. 
NOTE N2: All the skins for this mod will came out as a stand alone mod because I want people with any of my mods seing those boots, gloves, eye protection, face masks etc. So it will came out soon as a stand alone mod. 
NOTE N3: This mod will not conflict with any of my Digital Camouflage mods. 

I hope you will enjoy it!

Glory to Ukraine!

Some of @Oleksandr mods at work in the field.  Very cool. 




Thanks for the mod work. 

Really appreciate your job but, more the time that you take to explain, with lot of text, giving some examples, defined in details situations, added somes personals infos, take time to respond to some posts...ignore the others one... and almost every week, a beautiful mod...man... YOU alone, let working the forum...😊👍👍

It's pretty ridiculous how often the forum has to be regulated nowadays. It's nearly March... SF2 time !

One more thing - I will not talk, react or support any toxic stuff. I don't have time or willing to do that. 
I found out that something was said about me just because Mr. Steve quoted. I've blocked few individuals long time ago and I have no intention to keep in touch with them.
If they are saying something here (which I dont see) it is your right to listen or to ignore them. There are few people with whom I have no desire to talk to, and I will not. Now they can say anything they want - there will be "0" reaction from my side. I do what I do - they do what they do. 

Here is a link to some preliminary screenshots of a work in progress. Red Dragon is a campaign depicting a North Korean blitzkrieg into South Korea in autumn of 2018. I have modded nearly every building in CMBS to what hopefully will give an Asian feel. Terrain, uniforms,vehicles have also been modded. This is my first attempt at modding so it may not appeal to some.
I have done a huge amount of research into this to make the conflicting sides as accurate as possible. However obvious limitations in the BS game engine will limit this. I have even modded some of the Russian voice files to Korean for the NK side. 
The SK will use the coyote brown slot so nothing I can do on voices there. Im still debating on using them in the campaign.
Anyhoo here is the link to some screens. Any feedback is welcome.

Originally I saw that photo in the hobby historical journal 'AFV News' Vol 24, No.1 1989. It was first printed in a 1970 article about the M22 Locust (foreground), then someone spotted the weird Shermans in the background.
According to the brief article, Eisenhower asked Montgomery for 17 pounders during Normandy but Britain needed all they had so none were procured before 1945 (supposedly 160 guns). The Shermans in the photo have US '30 series' war dept numbers, .50 cal stowage brackets at the rear, and late US commanders cupolas. The article says they're remanufactured M4s. They may be VVSS suspension with grousers added. Hard to tell. I saw another article on them noting where the picture was taken but that reference in long gone.

My favorite:

M4A3E2 “Jumbo” upgraded with 76mm, relocated M2 for loader, M1919 for commander and M3 .50 cal (1000rpm) in coax position.

Still hunting.....Finding all manner of interesting stuff:

But not what I'm actually looking for! 

Glad you like it man. Enjoy this game when you will have it! 

Romeo, oh Romeo, wherefore art....  BAM!

Thanks @Sgt.Squarehead.  Don't edit your above post.  I have to show it to the wife and get it in my signature line first   ...............
Below is my SOP for rooms with balconies. 
1. Give team a circular Target Arc about the size of the building.
2. Slow team into the building & then to the desired floor.
3. Give desired floor waypoint a Target Arc out the reverse wall.1
4. 2nd turn give the team a permanent Pause3 order.
5. Give team a 32m 360oTarget Arc2 and consider Hide.
Notes: 1)The team will have LOS out the forward wall of the building from the reverse wall.  This will also keep team from entering a balcony on forward wall.  2)A 360oTarget Arc is used to prevent the OpFor from approaching outside a wedge arc & does not affect observation. 3)Pause keeps team from moving to forward wall & entering balconies.     

I don't think so.
But you can try the face command, if they are commanded to face towards the opposite side of the building than the balcony they might not go out on it.
But if the balcony is the direction the enemy is, what would be the point of that.
 
I personally avoid balconies levels for my troops unless the enemy is at extreme ranges. They just do not give as much protection as being inside the building.
The only other time I send them to those levels is if I have fire power controlling that location. then the risk is low and their view is improved.

I have CMBN installed on 3 machines right now, my main desktop, my laptop and my daughter's laptop. She is enjoying LAN battles with me almost as much as I am.
I have CMFI installed on those three as well as my desktop at work. 
My understanding is the game comes with 4 activations initially and a new one is made available every year you own the product. 
As for Steam, Battlefront have stated repeatedly they will not be using the Steam platform.
 As stated before, my daughter and I have been playing LAN battles with each other without issue. I own a copy of Civiliation V and while it is installed on both our laptops, I need to buy a second copy to battle her thanks to Steam's DRM rules. So a big thanks to @Battlefront.com for not using Steam so I can introduce the joys of CM to the next generation. 

By the way, didn't they say they would start in the late war and then work their way backwards, getting to the early war eventually? Or was it that the game families would go back in time, but modules would progress forward in time?
It seems both the new games (CMFB) and new the new modules for exsiting games are now converging towards the end of the war. This seems a bit strange to me, because we will then fight the basically same situation in three different games:
Nearly beaten Germany vs the USA (CMFB)
Nearly beaten Germany vs the USA - but in Italy! (CMFI Rome to Victory)
Nearly beaten Germany vs the Soviets (CMRT end of war module)
I guess you could say it makes business sense to use the already developed content in as many products as possible, and a lot of the customers probably want to fight in the late war, with the most powerful tanks etc. I'm not saying those three settings won't be interesting to play. But for variety, I think it would be more interesting to branch out in different years of the war, where the relative strengths were different.

Well sorry my post is on the wrong place was talking in general rules for the promised awaiting release and not about CMBS !!

You know I think along the same lines, but insurgent warfare was never something BF wanted CMSF to be about.  That we have it at all is wildly cool, but nah I don't see them making much effort to look like 2017 Syria.

So you are asking for all new stuff. See above reply 
 
😎

you are a little slow today.   
if the exploding attribute of a VBIED could be transferred to the driver rather than the vehicle (perhaps at a reduced level if he dismounts, say a Medium rather than Huge IED effect), he could be used as a suicide bomber by deleting the car in the editor, while the car could be used as civilian traffic by deleting the bomber/driver and leaving the spy.
"If" means a new feature then probably no.  Changes in ToE have nothing to do with what you are asking.  Nice try (and yes it would be cool, but as many of us have been trying to say - keep your expectations closer to "It is CMSF in 4.0" not CMSF with your wish list).

This s worth repeating - one more time. Also it seems to still be necessary, for some reason. 

Nope. FRAPS works just fine for me. Just because an app is old doesn't mean it's useless.

Quick short and clear....load and clear Mr IanL😊

Have good day.

+1 Yes only screenshots without comments will be nice.
The problem is when Steve will put some pics, there will be lots of questions that he has to answer, and bring later development of game is understanding why designers  dont put pics and waiting to the final moment.
