Sequoia Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 I did read this somewhere right? If so, any speculation as what we might get? Also please give us a Syrian Truck, just because. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slug88 Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 I'm sure was being serious. A Syrian truck would make a mockery out of a once realism based war game. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
souldierz Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 It would be nice to see some new Syrian type troops.Not sure on any official say if new ones would be included, but i think it would be nice if the Syrians got mortar teams like the Brits. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flamingknives Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 Do the Syrians use commando mortars like the British? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sequoia Posted January 21, 2010 Author Share Posted January 21, 2010 Found it. From another thread. What will they give us that we don't have already? We are far more flexible with the organization of Syria's Unconventional forces because we invented them We do intend on making new formations for NATO.

Alex Posted January 22, 2010 Share Posted January 22, 2010 look here http://www.battlefront.com/community/showthread.php?t=89369&highlight=new+red+units Also I think the real bad situation now with ammo for Syrians: no 7.62x54R for PKM, no VOG-25 for GP-30, no rockets for RPG-29 and RPG-16, no VOG-17 for AGS-17, no 12.7x108 for DShK, no missiles for ATMG, no ammo in UAZ or Toyota, and no "ammo storage" for unconventional forces. Now all ammo in vehicles is typical, for all Syrian formations, it's looks the very bad. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sivodsi Posted January 22, 2010 Share Posted January 22, 2010 'New formations' doesn't necessarily mean new equipment:( so unless they intend to surprise us (and it wouldn't be the first time), we should not expect any new Red gear. But I'll keep my fingers crossed. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are you saying Syrians don't resupply their troops with ammo? They have no trucks? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lanzfeld Posted January 22, 2010 Share Posted January 22, 2010 A Syrian truck would render the base game fundementally flawed. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sergei Posted January 22, 2010 Share Posted January 22, 2010 Logistics within Syria are 95% done with zeppelins and 4.5% with trains. The rest is camel caravans, river barges etc.. Trucks are pretty rare there because Syrian red ants like to eat rubber tires, they're everywhere and there is no known pesticide that works on them. Wikipedia has a good article on them. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well let's add the zeppelins to the game. Otherwise how will we ever get the Reindeer sleds when they add the Finnish module to the East front games. And I want the ammo carrying bear the poles had in Italy. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LongLeftFlank Posted January 23, 2010 Share Posted January 23, 2010 Uncon Zombies.... with chainsaws and huge scimitars for the Marines. The animation shouldn't be too much trouble for Charles -- just a minor variant on Buddy Aid. And think of all the new flavour objects! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bergerbitz Posted January 23, 2010 Share Posted January 23, 2010 How about Syrians using a Japanese-built truck? Not several, but one. And they share it. And the CV joints are bad. This wouldn't alter the play balance and upset the realism, would it? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex Posted January 23, 2010 Share Posted January 23, 2010 It will be interesting to see in game a hiding-place ammo supply's, or just a boxes with ammo to resupply units. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sequoia Posted January 23, 2010 Author Share Posted January 23, 2010 Okay, I'm going to go out on a limb and predict some sort of new Uncon vehicle like a SUV that a bunch can all pile into for transport. Maybe it can also be used as a movable IED suicide vehicle. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alan8325 Posted January 23, 2010 Share Posted January 23, 2010 I think the thing that uncons need most at this point is some ability to resupply..ANY ability to resupply, even if its just some acquirable ammo in the transport pickups or UAZs. I would imagine that this would be a piece of cake to add. Some new units would be really cool tho, especially uncon fighters equipped with suicide vests. The formations would look pretty much the same, but maybe the large fighter groups could have a suicide team added that would be identical to a 3 or so man team with AKs but with the ability to explode, either with a separate command in the targeting interface, or somehow operated by the TACAI when the enemy is in very close proximity. I would personally prefer the TACAI method because it would allow it to work with strategic AI-controlled forces. Perhaps for human controlled forces it could be a toggleable function, defaulted to "on". Alternatively, suicide vests could be given to some of the teams in fighter groups with "excellent" equipment quality. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pvt. Ryan Posted January 24, 2010 Share Posted January 24, 2010 I don't know about Syria, but doesn't every house in Iraq have a stash of weapons and ammo? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sergei Posted January 24, 2010 Share Posted January 24, 2010 I don't know about Syria, but doesn't every house in Iraq have a stash of weapons and ammo? That happened only after the invasion, after it was decided to grant US 2nd Amendment rights to all Iraqis so that if there was a corrupt, undemocratic government the people could overthrow them. It's working! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
