Kommiekat 11 Posted October 1, 2013 Congrats on your release! I'm looking forward to this mission. Downloading now! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kommiekat 11 Posted October 4, 2013 OK, just finished the mission and really enjoyed it. It's always either the Americans or the British when it comes to the Iraqi/Afghan wars and never the Germans. This time, I learn something about the German contribution to the war. I really like playing as a German unit and the G36 is one of my favorite toys. First part of mission was a surprise. Things so quiet, waiting, waiting, then BAM! Second part of mission was dynamite! I'm using LordJarheads Sound Mod and your mission was perfect for it. Thanks for the hard work and the contribution to RWO. I really hope to see more German missions from you.:D BTW, I noticed that you don't have a signature. H34dUP or myself can get you one like I have if you want:cool: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mathias_eichinger 64 Posted October 8, 2013 (edited) This mission has been updated to version 1.0, please check the first post. Have fun! EDIT: The mission is also available on Armaholic Edited October 9, 2013 by Mathias_Eichinger Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
h34dup 147 Posted October 21, 2013 Hey Mat, was thinking as I saw a new update to the German Weapons pack-- you should release an Addon+ version with some stuff like the Bundeswehr mod (love their ISAF units), and the German Weapons pack, perhaps some YuraPetrov chopper action!

mathias_eichinger 64 Posted November 4, 2013 Hey headup, sorry for the late reply, I am quite busy at the moment. There will be no AddonsPlus version, for the following reasons I checked today: -Bundeswehr mod only contains "Regular Joes", no SOF unit models -German Weapons pack contains mostly pre-Y2K HK rifles which would be perfect for a Cold war environment, but they have been phased out since the Kosovo deployment I think (1999). -Did not actually try YuraPetrovs Blackhawks, but the stock models coming with BI don't allow seating for the KSK troops (they stick in there upright like in Bulldozer preview pics), plus I have read that the Chinook is the preferred helo for Afghanistan due to it's hot-and-high-performance. But, thanks to nettrucker, the mission has been updated to Version 1.2 with improved cinematics. Cheers and have fun, Mathias Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kommiekat 11 Posted November 5, 2013 But, thanks to nettrucker, the mission has been updated to Version 1.2 with improved cinematics. Cheers and have fun, Mathias nettrucker be teh man for that. I hope, when he has the time to spare and no rush on my part, he can get Operation Gothic Serpent intro done for me. True artist indeed! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
voiceofarma 24 Posted July 19, 2014 nice mission would better to add voice acts. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mathias_eichinger 64 Posted July 21, 2014 Hey VoiceOfArma, thank you for your kind words. If I can enlist a fellow, very talented community member, a serious overhaul of this mission is in the cards, including voice acting. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
nettrucker 142 Posted July 22, 2014 Hey VoiceOfArma,thank you for your kind words. If I can enlist a fellow, very talented community member, a serious overhaul of this mission is in the cards, including voice acting. That's great news looking really forward to it. In case you need help with voice acting or audio editing drop me a line I might be able to do something or to help you with that. cheers Mathias Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mathias_eichinger 64 Posted July 22, 2014 Hey nettrucker, that's a very generous offer. However, I am starting to overhaul all my missions with the help of the OFPEC staff, starting with my newest A3 releases. Could easily be Christmas until I tackle Codename Farrington. But if you are still around then, I am glad to pick your brain about all the audio editing stuff. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
