The Legion Initiative Overhaul is designed to be Cohesive and Immersive.

It is for players who:

• Are seeking an easy set up, go to mod framework without debugging, testing, or curation
• Are seeking immersive campaigns, purpose built for growth with one unit
• Are seeking for a fresh, polished shine upon door kicker’s mechanics, visuals, audio, and UI
• Are seeking for a more hardcore door kickers gameplay experience with less forgiving combat, encouraging deliberate fire suppression and maneuver tactics
• Are seeking to control larger tactical operations on the platoon level

This project is in Phase 1 (Pre-Alpha)
What you are playing now is a prototype direction, not the final experience.

• Containing placeholder elements
• With a focus on alignment, tone, and laying a foundation for deliberate tactical gameplay
• Bugs, inconsistencies, errors, and crashes may be encountered
• …and is subject to change

• A
  • A1.

• Global Changes
  • All units have increased FOV to 160
  • Progression Focus:
    • No more unlocking everything with your hundreds of starts straight from the start, with every new unit, you must unlock your gear through battle honors, strictly through campaigns
    • Start with only pistols and shotguns, earning new weapons through battle honors gained only by completing campaigns with the same unit
    • Doctrines now have progression locked behind squad leveling, based on their real life availability and now earn at 1 point per squad level

• Playable Units, Unit Mod Integrations, and Reorganizations
  • US Army 75th Rangers
    • Consolidates assets from Rifle Squad into a singular cohesive Ranger unit.
    • (Project ARES Integration is a Work In Progress)
    • Reorganizes Rangers into a more realistic reflection of an understrength platoon within a modern day 75th Ranger Company
    • 3x 7 man rifle squads, 1x 4 man weapons squad, 1x 7 man rifleman attachments
    • Squad Leaders inspire nearby troops, encouraging them to aim small, miss small, while keeping them in the fight for longer while under fire

  • The Blue Legion:
    • Utilizes the assets from Blue Vector, converting it into the Blue Legion
    • Blue Legion is a Pre-Marian Republic Roman Legion inspired localization, reorganization, and flavor conversion
    • It Renames troopers into historical Latin themes of the Pre-Marian republic era
    • Utilizes the Deployment Tabs System and adds additional Weapons and Attachments Squad
    • Each squad is split between Legionaries and Auxiliary forces, with different regional weaponry

  • SWAT:
    • Work in progress…
    • Inspired as a deeper reflection of the Mosul Iraqi SWAT that fought in 2017
