Hoa Lien SF Camp – Vietnam
Welcome to Special Forces Camp A-302 ‘Hoa Lien Hoa’. Camp names and numbers were often painted onto the roof of one of the camp hootches and you’ll see that here.
I wanted to create a remote type of SF camp along the lines of Kham Duc which was in close proximity to the Laotian border. I also wanted it to have the feel of some of the earlier camps which incorporated indigenous buildings into the design. I am currently reading Shelby Stanton’s ‘Green Berets at War: U.S. Army Special Forces in S.E.Asia, 1956-1975’ which i must mention as an inspiration for this composition.
The composition is designed to replace the village of ‘Bru’ on the Cam Lao Nam map, the ‘hide terrain objects’ module hides some of the original terrain features (but retains some of the huts as mentioned earlier). Turn off surface snapping then search for ‘Bru’ in locations, use the red ‘placement marker’ and line it up with the hut shown in the picture (grey square on the map). The red placement marker goes in the very right hand corner of that hut. Place the composition then lower into place. I have included some images to help with this process. The composition includes my fictional border markers, several foxholes outside the wire and a radio relay outpost on a hill to the north.
The composition contains many custom built structures you won’t find in the core game for a bit of variety. It isn’t perfect, some objects may be badly aligned or not level but not a bad job overall.
UPDATE DEC’ 2022 :
– Improved mortar pit area
– Some new foxholes and
– Increased overall camp clutter for more realism
UPDATED DEC’ 2022 AGAIN!
– Developed the radio relay site to the North of the camp
– Reoriented the relay bunker

– Added a new guardhouse to the camp entrance
– Added a medical tent
Credit to Unsung Redux mod for some of the items in the composition, everything else is SOGPF DLC, Contact DLC and Apex DLC. You don’t need to have the Contact platform loaded just the items from the Eden editor that are needed. Thanks to Savage Game Design for what i consider to be the best game content ever made!
