Accurate Korean War

**I’ll likely be discontinuing this mod, as I’ve found another fantastic one on the workshop which I hadn’t known about before that already contains everything I intended to do and more. I won’t delete my work immediately, but I recommend you go and subscribe to the other mod for a better experience than I could provide.**

As a historian, collector, and reenactor of the Korean War I have always been a bit disappointed with the lack of an accurate Korean War mod for Arma. I am by no means a modder and this is my first attempt at creating anything myself, just using existing assets from other mods. All credit goes to the creators of the listed mods, I simply perused them to find and compile the most accurate elements according to my prior research.

I only made a small selection of the possible uniform and gear possibilities, but I highly recommend playing around with the other assets provided with the required mods to customize it according to your will. Over the course of the war, uniforms and gear evolved continuously according to the changing weather and availability of new equipment. I have simplified this by largely sorting units into ‘Early’ and ‘Late’, corresponding roughly to the period 1950-51 and 1952-53 respectively. Some factions will also be further broken down by season. As this is just a passion project and relies on spending a lot of time looking and experimenting with other mods and assets, I plan to add one faction at a time and update the mod as shown below, in whatever order I’m able to complete them.

To make changes to units, you must have ALiVE mod installed, then in unit attributes select box titled "Override ALiVE ORBAT Loadout". Then feel free to change units to your heart’s content.

If you own them, you can probably find some assets from either SOG and/or Liberation to supplement this. At a later date I may utilize SOG for the Opfor factions, but for now there is no DLC requirement.
