Ah the G6, the SPG that kicked the communists asses so badly at cuito cuanavale they deny the whole battle
Buffel finally in graviteam tactics. Was missing in Op Hooper dlc and Op Moduler
Still no Casspir or Eland though...
Or G6
Train ticket booked. Finally going home. Look forward to some art content popping up soon!
Casspir wasnt used by sadf
Only koevoet at that time
And eland was already phased out by then
I know, I would have liked it if they featured the COIN side of the conflict too
Then we would have got Koevoet with their casspirs in. As for the Eland they could have included them for earlier ops such as Reindeer
Anyway no worries as I'll be doing it with SQUAD.
Keen to finally be back tomorrow... and get cracking
Can't wait to see a screenshot like this in SQUAD. Not sure why that Buffel is green though.
They did a good job on the Buffel
Read somewhere the other day that 32Bn in Operation Moduler or Hooper had Ratels under their command and were painted in a different camouflage scheme
Check the size of those shells.... 👀
@Springbok ja but thats how graviteam operates they focus on one specific area of an operation
That looks like a russian ZU-23-2
On the train reading LZ Hot! By Nick Lithgow
@Kooijpolloi ja pretty much what I'll be doing too although I'm not just doing the large operations
I'll be doing the smaller battles and contacts too. So on some maps you'll play as SWATF or Koevoet or 32Bn. Going up against SWAPO. Whereas other layers you'll be 61 Mech going against FAPLA
Just passed a convoy of Italian army vehicles
Someone warn Ethiopia!
Ethiopia doesn't have to worry 😂
lol

Preparing to get back into modding. Dl'd blender 2.80
Going to buy Zbrush within the week
Updating UE4 and the SDK
Have to get used to Blender 2.80 though. Completely changed from 2.79
yep
well sorta
Special thanks to @Tillee for getting me the book Surviving the Ride by Steve Camp & Helmoed-Römer Heitman.
Tons of information about South African armoured vehicles with pictures as well. They'll be of immense help to the development of this mod.
as i was saying i think the scouting ability would only allow ground troops and the eland/ratel to mark targets such as enemy vehicles or groups of soldiers
like the system that war thunder implemented with their light tanks where you can scout/mark enemy vehicles accurately for the enemy team insteaqd of placing a marker on a map on the enemy vehicles general location
