Lace Posted March 9, 2022 Share Posted March 9, 2022 I am writing a set of missions depicting a low intensity skirmish between two fictional small African nations. It will take place in the north of Cyprus, with multiplayer slots for two aircraft, and playable from Red and Blue sides (probably as 3 separate .miz files, red, blue and both). Blue have taken delivery of a small detachment of ex-Israeli AH-64Ds. Their orbat is a mix of new/old mostly western kit. They have no offensive fixed-wing assets Red are equipped with ex-soviet kit, with the playable units being the MiG-21 and the Mi-8 The scenario back story is as follows... Bluefor: Equatorial Mirumba, thanks to revenue generated by recent coastal oil reserve exploitation has begun replacing its older military hardware with small amounts of modern western equipment. The relationship with their Southern neighbour had always been frosty, but never hostile, however the recent coup and violent tendencies of Field Marshal Kijambiya are well known and a cause of real concern for President Mutello. The Mirumban Volunteer Army has increased border patrols and all forces have been brought to readiness. The newly delivered AH-64 gunships will prove critical to maintain the safety and prosperity of the people of Equatorial Mirumba. Redfor: Having secured power in a military coup, supported in large by the population of The People’s Democratic Republic of Kzama on promises of economic reform, Field Marshal Kijambiya casts an envious eye over their small but wealthy neighbour to the North. Feeling pressure to make good his promise and wanting to maintain momentum, Kzaman People's Army troops have been harassing Equatorial Mirumba's border patrols with sporadic skirmishes and intimidation. The Kzaman Peoples Air Force's small fleet of mostly outdated ex-soviet hardware is primed and ready for further operations into Equatorial Mirumba's sovereign territory. However, aware of Mirumba's recent spending Field Marshal Kijambiya is worried that any delays will only make the job harder, and possibly not achievable at all. It is now or never. Decisive action is required if the oil wealth of their rivals is to be seized. The first couple of missions will be ready as soon as the Apache drops, six total planned. 6 1 Laptop Pilot.

Stratos Posted March 10, 2022 Share Posted March 10, 2022 Really interesting, will you provide new skins for Mirumban Air Force and Kzaman Sir force? I don't understand anything in russian except Davai Davai! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would love to, but most aircraft are sporting the liveries of the various export nations which supplied them at the moment. It's not easy to get stuff painted around here. I'm trying to go for something far removed from the sanitised and procedural modern US/NATO type experience a lot of missions offer, and go for something more chaotic and atmospheric if I can. Also I figure AH-64 vs MiG-21 is about as asymmetric as air warfare is possible to get. Might work, might not. We'll see. Laptop Pilot.

Stratos Posted March 10, 2022 Share Posted March 10, 2022 I think I will create some skins for your campaign once released. I really like those setups with fictional countries. Thanks!

A mix of desert/jungle appropriate colours, but lots of colour also feels appropriate for an African warlord. 1 Laptop Pilot.

Lace Posted March 27, 2022 Author Share Posted March 27, 2022 Ok, here are the first couple, both as Red and probably of more interest here, Blue. First one is more of a FAMEX, second can be hairy.
