Description:

Rocketman_02 presents:

This mod aims to bring the chaotic world of Nuclear Option to Arma 3 by adding its two warring factions, the Boscali Defense Force and Primeva Armed Liberation Alliance to the game using primarily reskinned base game assets.

It’s strongly recommended to use this mod with either Freestyles Nuclear Bombs, or Fire Support Plus, which includes Freestyles Nuclear Bombs, for the full Nuclear Option experience.

Features:

-Fleshed out Boscali Defense Force and Primeva Armed Liberation Alliance factions using Arma 3’s base game assets.
-CBRN infantry for both sides, compatible with Phenosi’s Chemical Warfare Plus mod.
-The Nuclear Option Original Soundtrack, composed by Jeremy and Justin Sahl, included with permission from Shockfront Studios.
-Compatibility with multiple CDLC’s including Western Sahara, Reaction Forces, and Expeditionary Forces
-Soft dependency for RHSGREF, allowing use of the CI-29 Grasshopper (A-29 Super Tucano).
-Soft dependency for Arma 3 Aegis, allowing use of the FS-35 Maelstrom (F-35C Lightning II).

Optional Submods:

-WebKnight’s Zombies and Creatures Addon
-ACE3 Compatibility Patch

CDLC Compatibility notes:

No CDLC’s are required to use this mod, however you can look forward to these changes if you do own them!
