Mistake, or feature?


Recommended Posts

I've noticed that in CMSF's depiction of Syrian Reserve units the bulk of the infantrymen wear solid light green uniforms, except one man in every squad -- who instead wears a camouflage uniform identical to those worn in the Army and Republican Guard mechanized units.

For some reason, this single camouflage clad soldier is always the DEPUTY squad commander. I have two questions:

(1) Is this a mistake? Did the Developers intend for the squad COMMANDER to be wearing the distinctive camo uniform and only assigned that look to the deputy commander by mistake?

(2) If this is not a mistake, why would the deputy commander, but not the commander, have the more distictive uniform? One possibility that springs to mind is that perhaps the Reserve units are salted with full-time army troops during wartime (as a stiffener, like adding Wehrmacht troops to larger Romanian formations). Is this what is being simulated?
