tn_prvteye Posted December 8, 2014 Posted December 8, 2014 I'm "modding" my DCS to reflect more of a mid '80s era, and was wondering what I need to exclude from any missions. I know some of the obvious ones: AIM-120s, A-10C, Su-25T, Su-33, Mig-29C, F-15E.... What about SAMs and Ground Forces? I'm not as familar with the time period. I was in high school in the 80's and constantly poured over military aviation books...so I'm familiar with aviation.. :) But armor? Not so much. Any obvious units that would not be present? Thanks for any info... -Steve
vicx Posted December 8, 2014 Posted December 8, 2014 The most significant pieces of hardware to leave out IMO are the Patriot and S-300. You are now pretty much done. Unfortunately when it comes to other ground units there's probably not enough units in the game that you have luxury of leaving any out. For example you could take out the M1A2, and T-90 but you really need an M1Mx so maybe leave both in just to be fair and they both look like 80's designs anyway. It is the same for a lot of the other units. If you leave out the Strykers then you have no Blue SPG. The HMMV was a 90's icon but you'll need a light vehicle with TOW so you gotta keep it. It isn't a case of leaving stuff out. Someone has to make some stuff.
