Well I will be happy to adjust my horse drawn carts and artillery for BoS. It was created for RoF, so should work almost out of the box! The horses are fully animated.

Nice Job, Vander !

However it it would be a nice idea to get massive minus points when shooting a ambulance car or a railway wagon with red cross markings on its rooftop anyway.

Well on that basis, how about having your aircraft impounded for accidently crossing the Swiss boarder? As the Swiss impounded both axis and allied aircraft.

Of coarse this would be for a later add-on not the momentary Stalingrad theatre.

In Stephen Bungay book about BoB he say that Germans use red cross in fuel and munition trucks...

British shoot at German ambulance planes on canal, and strafe his crew in the water...

 

In Easter front these red cross should serve only target ...

It where foul people on all sides who attacked civilian/red cross columns/vehicles or used them as disguise, and where brave people who refused to do so (sometimes against direct order) This struggle about remaining a human being in the midst of the war has been represented in many war films (Platoon, Saving private Ryan, etc.) And IMHO it shouldn't be "modeled" in a game.

[leitmotiv]

in IL2 you had medic ship (red cross), and if you destroy it you would get -10000pts, but settings depends on server hosting the mission made with this object in it, simple solution if you wont to make this restriction it was possible to use it the way host wonts to use it

 

on game makers its just to make thouse objects, map makers or server hosts has the option to make them - points or not, not devs

Something I just noticed, the Ford V8 truck in the video of BoS is an American production version, because it has the split window. Now who was absent minded in the modelling department there?..

You could always send a PM to one of the developers here, instead of making sly remarks.

[FlatSpinMan]

And we're done here. Confine comments to helpful things. Anything personal, take it to PM or better yet, just not say it.

Thanks for cleaning up the thread, was about to ask for it anyway.

[Zorin]

Thanks to Zak, I was able to update the first post with the suggestions you guys have made so far. I will also include the horsedrawn carts and sleds as soon as I have the correct types figured out.

I will upate the list with USSR vehicles and their production numbers in the next update. The list will be considerably shorter though as there were very few different vehicles types produced.

First post updated with information on the Soviet Army.

[Zorin]

Please list further ground units that were either crucial (Foobar, trains?) to the scenario or produced in numbers so high that they can not be omited.

[FlatSpinMan]

Good stuff, Zorin. Hope lots of it makes it into the game, sooner or later.

I think we would already be well off if two or three of each category would make it into the game. Lets not forget that a lot of equipment was captured and used by both armies. Therefor resulting in a rather wild mix of vehicles to be employed.

 

Crucial to that would be the ability to change skins though. Is that already possible in ROF?

[Bearcat]

Do not get me wrong I am also absolutely for horses as they where used in greater numbers

than motorised vehicules. But fact is also that you find very young players on games,many

would think they should not be playing. And they are harsher than a few horses falling over.

 

The original IL2 had a PG 12 rating, would a PG 16 really hurt?

Thinking of Red Orchestra that is PG16 but I am very certain that

there are plenty of players, judging by their voices that are below 16.

 

How big is the margin between a PG12 and a PG 16 rating?

 

Just need to think of supply trains, they usually looked like this:

 

 

I'd be curious to know how many teenagers there are here..

[Lord_Haw-Haw]

Oh I am pretty certain there are more than enough!

As there are plenty of stories of various fellows who made themselves a

year or two older, to join the armed forces. The guys with these supply

trains are most likely all with a farming back ground, as there people

with experiance with horses where prefered.

[Zorin]

I think Bearcat was referring to the player base of BoS and not the soldiers in the picture.

[Zorin]

No more suggestions? Maybe someone in the know could list all weapons that would be needed for the Soviet side?
