greywulf58 Posted May 15, 2012 Share Posted May 15, 2012 I was wondering if any of the modders would be interested in doing up some new vehicle and infantry mods for the Germans. I'd like to do some modern "what-if" scenarios or maybe even a campaign or two pitting the United States and Great Britain vs the Germans....sort of a Fourth Reich. It could even be a re-run of the North Africa campaigns....Tobruk anyone? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately I haven't heard from him for a couple years now and don't have the talent to do it myself. It would be fun though!

Earl Grey Posted May 15, 2012 Share Posted May 15, 2012 What exactly are you thinking of? I'm in the process of doing a standard Flecktarn mod for the Germans which hopefully gets finished one day... Vehicles could do with a makeover, but again. What do you have in mind? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greywulf58 Posted May 15, 2012 Author Share Posted May 15, 2012 If memory serves me correctly, Birdstrike and I talked about this waaaaay back. Unfortunately I haven't heard from him for a couple years now and don't have the talent to do it myself. It would be fun though! Mord. What I am wanting is to bring back some life into Shock Force and its modules since BF is not going to be doing anything more for it and won't be working on a x3 version in the foreseeable future. If I had the talent to do the mods, which I don't, I would come up with some Euro camo schemes for the Allied units, maybe do some old WWII German camo schemes for the Germans complete with the old German cross for the vehicles. Maybe do some Waffen SS units (black for crews and late war camos for the foot soldiers). Of course, if you did mods for Euro units that would mean that mods would need to be done to some of the buildings and other terrain features to make it work. It would seem to me that converting the German vehicles into the old DAK paint schemes would be much easier to do than camo schemes would be. Oh, and don't forget the new Soviet Union either....maybe bring back the Warsaw Pact. Now I may not be able to do mods, but I sure could do scenarios or campaigns based on the battles fought between the Allies and the Germans during WWII. I have one very valuable resource that would help me and that is Avalanche Press' Panzer Grenadier war game system....all games and modules (damn box weighs almost 40 pounds). One of the games, Cassino, has actual maps of that battle. Would love to pit the Allies vs the Fallschimjager in the fortress....I will be using this game to do scenarios and campaigns for CMBN once I get the base game and the Commonwealth module. So, that's what I am thinking of as far as Shock Force goes. Just need some help. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greywulf58 Posted May 15, 2012 Author Share Posted May 15, 2012 Oh, and lest we not forget about winter. Maybe too much to wish for but it would be cool (pun intended). 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
greywulf58 Posted May 15, 2012 Author Share Posted May 15, 2012 It might be ridiculous, but couldn't the scenarios and campaigns from CM x1 be used as a base for some scenarios for this idea? I mean there were literally hundreds of them done when those games were popular (still are as far as I'm concerned). Like I said, lets bring some life back to this excellent game. I could use all the help anyone would offer. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
