If you asked where the August DLC was, now here's your answer.
We worked hard in the past weeks and we're happy to present you the fourth (and definitely last) Cold War Rearmed² Demo. (Yeah I know, we said that last time too)
Besides the many units, weapons, and vehicles from the past Demo and a lot of big and small fixes this one also contains:
* All 5 original Terrains from OFP, all with updated terrain textures and little enhancements
* Assistant MG, AT and LAW/RPG units added
* Squad leaders added to West and East factions
* M151 and Willy's Jeeps added (thanks vilas)
* Ladas added
* Gaz-24 added
* Round parachutes added (thanks ACE2 Mod)
* Upgraded 6G30 and MM1 launchers (thanks hcpookie)
* Some more editor objects from the OFP days are back, e.g. tables with maps
* Old ugly field hospital replaced with one from ArmA2
* All previous 'DLC' added (Scud, Cessna and Kamov)
And a lot more I can't remember now.
As a 'little bonus' we also included:
* Saint Adam Terrain by Jakerod
* Dutch Marines units and weapons by Sander
* British Armed Forces units, weapons and vehicles by Col Stagler
This release is dedicated to James 'Planck' McNicoll.
You will be missed and we're sure you would be happy with what we achieved in the past years.

Reason: New Mission package added
Top Man and Top Team! Thanks for this. Your hard work is appreciated and the fact that you give it to the community elevates your Karma off the scale - thanks!!
Thanks for the realease! Ever since it's a standard addon on CiA server, the OFP-nostalgia comes back every time we play on one of the OFP islands.
It's allmost scary how well I remember every little hill and bump on Everon, while I get lost on Chernarus with map and gps enabled.
ArmA II’s interface, while powerful, is as intuitive as shitting in a wind tunnel. Immense reserves of patience are required to get the most out of it.
Thanks CWR2 team ...download server does not respond ATM

BTW, Is there the plan releasing only Map pack independently?
As with Demo 3, you can do that on your own. You just need to copy/move some pbo's in a new Mod folder. You also need a modified cwr2_cutscenes.pbo which I will upload in the next hours.

1. Yes that's no problem. In worst case you little collisions with map objects which were not there in demo 3, like the small poles on Kolgujev.
2. With equalModRequired disabled in the server config, it should be possible though. Some missions may not run then of course because stuff is missing, like Jeeps or some Objects and units.
