Bushfires Mod

The BI forums moderator Hellfish6 is working on a new mod called Bushfires Mod which will feature African conflicts from modern history.

They are looking for anyone who would like to join them as a modeller or texturer even if you can just contribute a small amount of time. More info on the BI forums in the Bushfires mod thread!

Here are some very nice screenshots of their Buffel APC plus ’80s style SADF soldiers and several untextured models.

The Bushfires mod will hopefully, eventually cover several African conflicts from modern history. Our initial focus is on the creation of a generic African OPFOR inspired by and designed to compliment and expand upon Ballistic Addon Studio’s Tonal/Tango OPFOR.
Almost in concurrent development is a portrayal of South Africa’s various wars with it’s neighbors. We currently have several high quality models for South African vehicles and most everything else is available in the community - and we hope to obtain permission to use them. We’d eventually like to expand to cover the Rhodesian War, the Biafra War, the Chad-Libya conflict, and Sudan. Plus, country-specific OpFor packs are in the works.
Africa is a continent of extreme diversity, confusing politics and widespread violence. We hope through our mod that some understanding of the who, what, when, where and why of modern African history will be obtained. Our scenarios will be based upon historical battles or fictionalized “what if” scenarios. Multiplayer missions will be co-op in nature, with some adversarial missions possible.
