Well not to worry Viggen I have 4 iran Iraq Campaigns already!  

 

1- Project Dark Gene/Project Ibex- A long running low intensity campaign meant to be a semi fictional scenario of 1970-1979 border skirmishes with Iraq as well as Classified USAF and CIA recon flights over the Soviet Union for probing air defenses... Because the terrain doesnt encompass the Southern Border of the Soviet Union I simply pivoted the operation 90 degrees to Northern Iraq with Soviet interceptors

 

2- Iraqi Invasion of Iran, surprise attack low supply levels for Iran low replacement times on ground units, aircraft and weapons lasts till 1982

 

3- War of the Cities/Tanker War- LOTS of interdiction type missions hitting SCUDs, Oil Terminals, oil fields, lots of anti shipping missions.  Iran is better supplied with a new Squadron of F-4D's bought from South Korea, weapon/aircraft replacement is higher but a lack of pilots.  Ground war is a stalemate.  (Contemplating adding a squadron of Saudi F-15s as a surprise addition for interceptions only. 1982-1987

 

4- End Game (Not sure what to name this one)- Iranian units reenergized for large offensive to end the war.  Iraqi forces are depleted after losing a lot of soviet support.  Su-24's introduced to Iraqi airforce

And the full war also, I hope? :)

 

Unfortunately Centurion-1's project went dark, he was working on a 32 strategic node ground war. Spudknocker built another mod package using these new terrains as a base. So simply enjoy what we'll have to offer. Besides, I hope that once the terrains get released, we'll see updated versions of Operation Desert Storm, Operation Darius and maybe for the first time a campaign based on Operation Iraqi Freedom.

Hi, Stratos! Believe me, there is no such thing as fast terrain making. You're talking to the guy who spent almost three years on a small terrain (it's not even real size, it's like stock TW's terrains). Of course, I spent most of the time researching details, targets locations, and hand-tiling the whole Mesopotamia with rivers, lakes and so on. I think you all we'll be impressed with the results. I used satellite images as reference during all the development. If you're not seeking ultra-accuracy, especially with rivers and lakes, you can gain quite some time for targets placement and so on.

 

I only wish that the terrain could get a better tileset complete with new TODs once it is released. Some magic from Stary or other artists here would make the terrain really shine. Creating good-looking tilesets and TODs is also very time consuming.

 

Out of curiosity, IIRC, Stratos you were working together with Centurion-1 on a beatiful terrain representing Ecuador and Peru, a long time ago. Such a pity Centurion-1 is no longer active, he had so many interesting mods for SF2. But RL comes first, I hope he's well and all.

I still have the BETA we were working on, but he left long ago and no more job was done there.

Really? Sounds like we could form a team to complete it in the future, but I'd wait to hear if it's okay with him.

Regarding Centurion I think we're in the exact same position as with Namibia/Angola terrain, so I will go forward, respecting credits, but forward without Centurion, I've tried to contact him during years without luck.

 

I will like to complete that theatre too, that's for sure. BUT I need to targetize my Syrian mod of Anatolia map first.

Hey Stratos do you want to PM me a copy of the Peru map? I can hopefully help out with finishing it off like I did with Angola!

We may have something for Perú, please don´t take it wrong, between all the ideas we have, details, RL, makes us to slow the release, in some cases we are waiting for just small stuff, in others, whole pits, but we promise something good, well researched at the end, i leave you some of the schemes we have for the Fitter F:

Stratos, do you have anything relative to Centurion-1's Iran-Iraq war mod too? He made various aircraft skins, terrain tiles, etc.

Don't think so as I was not involved in that project, but let me check on my HD's

Found the Cenepa map, sure it looks promising, but I think it needs tons of work.

True, we can make it. To make a good terrain takes time of course. It will be worth the wait. I'd like to help with it as well, but not now, as I am busy with the Iraqi terrain instead. Maybe in the next month I'll find some time for it, i'd really like to contribute. BTW, in order not to hijack this thread about Iraq/Iran, let's revive this old one about Cenepa: http://combatace.com/topic/84630-equadorperu-terrain-project-wip-input-wanted-from-terrain-gurus/

Looking forward to any news about it there!

Okay, terrain preparations are complete. First terrain you'll be able to play will be part of Spudknocker's Iran/Iraq war mod package.  My standalone releases will follow in the coming weeks.

 

@Wrench, before I give Spudknocker the green light, I want to check if it's okay with you that I include your old ReadMe files from the IR and IR2003 terrains together with my own ReadMe. Especially because I might forget in the credits someone whose work has been included indirectly in my reworked terrain. Although the terrain is pretty much 99% new, few target layouts may be your work too, so I'll wait for your permission.

Not gonna happen for first version. I might need some artists for a better looking tileset too.

Great job with mapping and detil people. Still waiting for the campaigns. Also i found out there was also a Greece-Anatolia map readily available. I grew up in Turkey and remember the 1996 crisis, which almost caused a war. If someone is willing to make a fictional campaign or a Historic/Semi-Historic 1974  Cyprus campaign i can be of help on the historical research side

      Mirage F1EQ5_Iriaf
      This mod is dedicated to BPAO, nothing would have been possible without him.
      Islamic Republic of Iran Air Force seized 24 F1BQs and F1EQs flown over from Iraq, during the 1991 Persian Gulf War. As of December 2021, 12 Mirage F1EQs and 5 Mirage F1BQs were in service.
      This mod is not 100% accurate, Iran used all the EQ versions but for more simplicity we decided to use only one version, the EQ-5, to cover all the IRIAF aircrafts.
      There is not a lot of informations about the Iranian Mirage, so we did our best to make a realistic aircraft.
      Based on Iraqi F1EQ-5 v4.0.1 mod with the following changes:
      all the original Iraqi weapons and pods have been disabled as Iran did not get any of those P7 and sidewinder compatibility added (instead of R550) F5 tanks (underwings stations only) instead of original F1 RP35 US bombs and rockets. Another data.ini version is provided for russians bombs and rockets use instead of US. Covered unit :
      102sd TFS
      This addon is and will in all cases remain freeware.
      Released under CombatAce Fair-Use terms.
      Enjoy

      The Pilot career and the over all campaign designed into EAW is most playable on v1.2.
      The EAWPRO has a set of files you can download extra, to give the v1.2 campaign while still using many of the effects and improvements in the FXEXE.

      https://www.mediafire.com/folder/l0g2lap23wi39/game-patch-fxexe
      That link is to get the EAWPRO patch and the extra Career Target and FMs Files for it.
