Canadian Armed Forces: 198X
Experience the Cold War gone hot as a member of the Canadian Armed Forces! Experts in mechanized warfare, the Canadians will strike fast and hard against the Warsaw Pact as they join the rest of NATO CENTAG to defend the Fulda Gap and push the Reds back to their rightful places east of the Inner German Border. With forces trained in the extreme conditions of the Great White North, use your forces to strike terror into the hearts of the communists over land and through the air.
This mod contains gear to emulate the Canadian Armed Forces during a non-specific (borderline imaginary) period in the 1980s. Due to asset limitations, the mod is not 1:1 with all variants of equipment operated by the Canadians in the 1980s. The uniforms and individual equipment in this mod are derived from S&S and QAC. Vehicles are provided by GM, CSLA, and SOGPF. Weapons are provided by the Free World Armoury.
At some point in the future, I intend to add the CF-18 Hornet, the CC-130 Hercules (with jump-equipped Paratroopers), and–if someone is interested in making a model–the AVGP Grizzly (because the Coyote is anachronistic for the 1980s).
In order to keep dependencies low, these files were included as soft dependencies, but are not necessary to run the mod:
Military Aviation – https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=938711359 – Adds CF-104 Starfighter
CLV Air Vehicles – https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2875337711 – Adds the CF-116 Freedom Fighter
CLV Armored – https://steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2490539128 – Adds M56 Howitzer, Skyguard III Radar, and GDF-005 AA Gun
And, as usual, uniforms support ranks when loaded with S & S (prefix CA).
Special thanks to Simcardo, Justin N., Motta, Jujurat, and the rest of Goonworks for making the original models and allowing me to edit, repack, and otherwise screw with them.
Thanks to the developers of GM, CSLA, and SOGPF for the vehicles, weapons, and turrets that support this mod.
Special thanks to TepacheLoco for FWA and allowing me to repack the Blowpipe MANPADS from Spearpoint Alpha.
Thanks to Remi and Novact for their Canadian Armed Forces research and advising on this mod.
Thanks to El Polaco for CLV assets (soft dependency; mod required for that content).
Thanks to Sabre for Military Aviation (soft dependency; mod required for that content).
All models were made by Goonworks with limited edits by Delta-Gamma (me) with the exceptions of:
– Blowpipe MANPADS by TepacheLoco
– P64 frag grenade pouch and P64 messkit pouch by Delta-Gamma
New textures for vehicles and equipment were made by Delta-Gamma.
Configuration packages were written by Delta-Gamma (who was taught by Lukin); DMOrchard’s vehicle config files were referenced (and largely misunderstood). Assistance with FWA-based configs provided by TepacheLoco.
Simcardo taught me how to do a soft dependency, so thanks to him for people no longer having to play in the folders.
Did I miss anything?
