Lookin' good frenchies

Really looking forward to this Faction looking good

[sheggalism]

Glad to see this faction finally has its own subforum

Suggestions about the design plan :

-Aimpoint for regular Rifleman and Rifleman Specialist would be good, in your spreasheet, only the Engineer has one (which he should not have since fighting isn't his purpose)

-I guess FAMAS Grenadier got a J4 Scrome

-No hesitation about the H-AT, give them the Eryx (Milan is a bit heavier, less mobile)

-I also guess that the VBL variant is the .50cal one (RECON). Any VBL MILAN planned later ?


And nice find about the Marksman weapon : a bolt-action rifle with a x3.85 scope ! that's very original ! (and quite realistic after all)

Very constructive comment
We have only given the aimpoint to the combat engineer because for us he is a well-equiped person who is able to face any situation. (maybe we are wrong)
The aimpoint is not so used in French Army, it's the reason why we have not given it to too many classes.

For the Eryx, it's my fault, I have let the MILAN but we were planning the Eryx for the HAT...

You guess well, we will probably use the .50cal one, but now this kind of vehicule is not used anymore in PR. We will put all our efforts on the VAB. (equivalent of the Stryker)
Perhaps, we will make a MILAN version but it's not planned yet.

Yes, we have to check exactly which kit in the other factions get the scopes. Sadly, as it was easy before tocheck directly in the media section of the website, this one is close since a long time now.

For the Grenadier, its Famas will get a short M203 and because the M203 ironsight is on the top of the Famas, it can't hold a scope.

hello. i have a quick question.

will you be making a Chadian faction? i may have to make it but dont have the resources, and was hopeing that you may have done some work on retexturing, and modeling.

thanks

Hello
Well, for now we try to set up an West African faction as ennemy. But it's just a matter of time before we continue to another theatre of war where France is involved, and the Tchad is one of them!
It will be easy as they are using pick-up, light weapons and the model playerclass, once retextured, look exactly like the Insurgents and/or Talibans!!!

If you can help us later with that, you are friendly welcome!

Cant wait to see the Cougar The Dutch Airforce also uses them

I'm still wondering about the paratrooper insertion: how is it going to be? Jump from an airplane or a static spawn point? There was one mission in the BFSF pack (warlord) where the UK has a paratrooper spawn point would it be possible to do the same?
Amicalement,
