AnthonyBarker Posted July 23, 2013 Report Share Posted July 23, 2013 I appreciate I have posted ideas that have not come to fruitition before, but behind the scenes I have been tinkering and learning the basics of creating EM Mods. Anyway, after inspiration from the US Army mod, I am going to crack on with Operation Banner Mod. The Mod will put the player in the seat of the Commander of a British Army Patrol Base in Belfast during the height of the Troubles. You will command an array of British Army troops and equipment in support of the Royal Ulster Constabulary to regain the streets. Planned Assets: Completely redesigned town. Personnel: Guardsman (Irish Guards)-Can put on Respirator (Gas Mask)-Baton, Riot Shield-Can arrest Lance Sergeant (Irish Guards)-Federal Riot Gun-Can put on Respirator (Gas Mask)-Can Call in Support (Vehicle)-Can arrest Rifleman (Royal Green Jacket): -L1A1 Self Loading Rifle-Can put on Respirator (Gas Mask)-Can arrest Corporal (Royal Green Jackets):-Federal Riot Gun-Can put on Respirator (Gas Mask)-Can Call in Support (Vehicle)-Can arrest Sergeant (Royal Green Jackets):-L24 Sniper Rifle Private (Parachute Regiment): -Baton-Can put on Respirator (Gas Mask)-Can arrest Corporal (Parachute Regiment): -Sterling SMG-Can put on Respirator (Gas Mask)-Can Call in Support (Vehicle)-Can arrest Private (Royal Army Medical Corps)-First aid Kit-Can arrest-Can put on Respirator (Gas Mask) Corporal (Royal Electronic and Mechanical Engineers)-Can Repair Vehicles-Can arrest-Can put on Respirator (Gas Mask) Lieutenant (Royal Army Ordnance Corps) (Felix)-Can Defuse Bombs-Can search for boms-Can wear Bomb suit-Can arrest-Can put on Respirator (Gas Mask) Sergeant (Royal Army Ordnance Corps) (Groundhog)-Has bomb finding dog-Can arrest Driver (Royal Corps of Transport)Drives Vehicles-Can arrest-Can put on Respirator (Gas Mask) Patrol Commander-Can Call in Civilian service support-Can arrest-Can put on Respirator (Gas Mask) Sergeant (Special Air Service)-Undercover-Browning High Power Fireman (Northern Ireland Fire Brigade)-As normal fireman Station Officer (Northern Ireland Fire Brigade)-As normal Fire chief Police Constable (Royal Ulster Constabulary)-Ruger Mini 14-Can arrest Ambulance crew (Northern Ireland Ambulance Service)-First Aid kit-stretcher Vehicles-Landrover 110 (Standard and Engineers)-Bedford MK-Humber Pig-Saracen (Standard and bomb disposal)-Civilian Car-Landrover Ambulance-AVRE???-Dennis Fire Engine-Ambulance-Landrover RUC-Wessex Helicopter Bases-Safe Houses-Main Patrol Base in old school More information to follow, but as they say finish on a (relative) high. Royal Green Jacket, and Corporal REME. Anyone fancy helping, please contact me. I can model and uvmap/skin, i struggle slightly with getting everything ingame, plus the more help i have the sooner i can complete this. I am also open to comments and questions, however this thread is not open for political discussion. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AnthonyBarker Posted July 24, 2013 Author Report Share Posted July 24, 2013 Many thanks for the support guys. Update on plan: -Royal Engineers Can erect/remove barricades-Soldiers can be grouped into 5 man 'bricks'. These bricks can then set up vehicle or person checkpoints-Humber Pig to be 'flying' variant, with deployable riot shields (perhaps as an upgrade) Other considerations-Adding a Royal Engineers Bulldozer (for removing barricades quickly)-Adding a Royal Navy Dive team (to represent all British Armed Forces)-Troops that are injured slightly will regenerate health at the Barracks, alternatively, a Landrover or Bedford can deploy a 'tea-urn' to the field (for prolonged operation) all troops within the area of this tea-urn will regenerate health. I've been tinkering with the idea of having specific buildings within the patrol base-Barracks (for training and holding troops, troops will also heal when sent into the barracks)-MT (Motor Transport) for repairing & purchasing vehicles-Armoury (where troops can get weapons)-Signals Section (For purchasing more civilan support vehicles)-Operations Room (For unit upgrades) Thoughts on these ideas are very welcome.
