Cold War Factions

Description



This mod seeks to recreate the great nations of the mid-Cold War in a simplified but consistent way. However, while only the RHS mods are required as a base, certain mods are considered soft dependencies, i.e. they are not required to run.
So the more you add the non-mandatory mods listed below, the more complete and realistic the mod will be (adding retextured vehicles, replacing weapons and uniforms etc).
The aim is to make the immersion as complete and light as possible for our poor PCs.

Infantry types are currently simplified into three categories per faction (in skill order):
- Conscript or Militia
- Regular infantry
- Paratroopers or Special forces

This is obviously a small start compared to the amount that still needs to be added, and I'm not a big pro.
So I'm looking forward to your opinions, advice or even suggestions for help !





Hard dependencies (Compulsory) :
- RHSAFRF
- RHSUSAF
- RHSGREF
- RHSSAF

Soft dependencies (Not Compulsory) :
- 3CB Factions
- Militay Aviation
- Unit Voice Overs Expanded





Blufor : NATO Alliance
- USA
- ITALY
- FRANCE
- BELGIUM
- DENMARK
- NETHERLANDS
- GREAT BRITAIN
- WEST GERMANY

Opfor : Warsaw Pact
- USSR
- POLAND
- ROMANIA
- HUNGARY

- NORTH KOREA





- Other soft dependencies (S&S, Free World Armoury, CUP weapons,...)
- Winter version of some faction
- More complex group and units
- More vehicles
- More factions...


1.0 UPDATE REACHED :
Certainly the most important update for this mod, Name switch from "Cold War RHS Retexture" to "Cold War Faction" as successive updates quickly outstripped the original objective.
Now playable in a stable manner, Last major issues have been fixed (Mod Signature, Zeus Groups, etc.)
The major factions of the Cold War are now presented in a more consistent and complete way.

ROAD TO 2.0 :
The aim now is to expand the list of soft dependencies and factions in general, and to improve what's already there (Textures, Indep Factions).
And above all add new vehicles that don't exist on arma 3.

Marder is bugged, gun is not shooting where you pointing and it is the most common issue with the all vehicles.

Hello! Nice mod, I love that it has lots of countries, including my country (Romania) :)
What I have noticed is that the Btr-60's main turret doesn't have any sound whenever I shoot inside the vehicle.

Do you think you can add a warrior variant with a MILAN AT system at some point?
