Skarp Posted January 31, 2019 Posted January 31, 2019 (edited) The DCS community and Drex the creator of DDCS Modern server brings you a new DDCS cold war server placed in the year 1975. This conflict era is meant to resemble a proxy war between smaller countries supported by major factions. This means a hodgepodge of donated and leased modern and legacy equipment for that era. Expect high-end weapons to perform like those from the end of the Vietnam conflict, with legacy weapons such as the aim-9B/GAR-8 and R-3s available for a lower cost of Life Points. Mig15s and Sabers will be able to compete so expect some amazing dogfights! The area of operation will include the west coast of the caucuses along the black sea. The concentration of airbases, equipment, and aircraft will help create an environment resembling the proxy wars of the era. The war will be player driven and the objective is to control all airfields and FARPs along the coast of the Black Sea. Key features include: • All unit placements are saved between restarts, so you never lose your work • Aircraft are limited to rear aspect only missiles • Helicopters can sling load ground vehicles • Helicopters can transport troops • Tactical commanders can drive the ground war • EWR working for both sides (EWR working for Mig15 as well) • Base spawn unit layouts are never the same if the base is repaired • A new feature has been added called Capture Points and these have been placed to reduce travel time and add more content for helicopter pilots. More features are currently under development and many will also be applied to the DDCS Modern server. Aircraft Available: • Blue: F5, F86, C101CC, Huey, P51, Spitfire • Red: Mig21, Mig15, L39, Mi8, (Mig19 when released), Bf109, FW190D • Requirements: Must be registered on DDCS Discord (https://discord.gg/JutYAzD) and SRS is enforced.

Baco Posted January 31, 2019 Posted January 31, 2019 I love the proposal. I very much like the low tech environments.
Skarp Posted January 31, 2019 Author Posted January 31, 2019 No Viggen? We would love a viggen on the server but due to the AI limitations for the anti air the viggen would have been too powerful.
mrkline Posted February 1, 2019 Posted February 1, 2019 We would love a viggen on the server but due to the AI limitations for the anti air the viggen would have been too powerful. How so? The Viggen was introduced in 1971 - remove BK-90s (possibly Mavericks too, I can't find good docs when the RB-75 was introduced) as loadout options and you've got a period-accurate plane capable of delivering rockets and dumb bombs.
Mr. B Posted February 1, 2019 Posted February 1, 2019 Was/is a blast. Having to learn new (read old and forgotten by many) ways of approaching challenges. Was the Viggen ever exported to Africa/Sth America/Asia?

Was the Viggen ever exported to Africa/Sth America/Asia? please leave out the Viggen. It has no real place in that scenario. No, they tried, but no one ever bought one besides the Swedish themselves. :pilotfly: Warthog HOTAS, Saitek Pedals, Oculus Rift :joystick:
mrkline Posted February 1, 2019 Posted February 1, 2019 please leave out the Viggen. It has no real place in that scenario. No, they tried, but no one ever bought one besides the Swedish themselves. Unless I'm mistaken, the Viggen never saw combat in any theater. That seems like a silly reason to exclude it from a scenario.
Kazansky222 Posted February 2, 2019 Posted February 2, 2019 Being a "low" intensity conflict between 2nd or 3rd rate powers using surplus equipment ect... I think a prop plane for blue and red would make sense. [sIGPIC][/sIGPIC] 64th "Scorpions" Aggressor Squadron Discord: 64th Aggressor Squadron TS: 195.201.110.22
Brigg Posted February 3, 2019 Posted February 3, 2019 Excellent news, the more cold war stuff the better.
