 What we really need is "the golden arches" 

 

You find one as easter egg at the only american airbase of my Sokotra terrain

Sit rep: The 3 tiles are done now in brown and green. My initial idea to place hundrets of small houses on it does not really work. If to many houses are at one tile the game does not show the other houses. Not good.

BTW: at Google Earth i found an other very small argentinian airport close to Villa Gesell. This airport i will create tomorrow.

that is one busy drive through!!! I hope they take GI script!!!!

You're right Wilches, 5 guys is much better. who can resist all those free peanuts??? !!!!

[Stratos 3,188]

Uruguay will be the center of many battles on that terrain, we would benefit from a modernized M41 Walker Bulldog!

[+Gepard 11,158]

The small airport near Villa Gesell:

It is a long, small runway with one service area, in reality used for civil light aircrafts.

[+Gepard 11,158]

The planning map with all target areas, which i have so far. (small redbrown and blue dots)

The new createt targetareas i will fill with buildings and when i have finished this then i continue with Uruguay.

Modern buildings should be good. Awesome!!!!!

I have started to create an industrial area near the town of Pilar, north west of Buenos Aires.

Thanks Gepard!!!  for the uruguayan side you can add Botnia Paperworks, near Fray Bentos and Gualeguaychú on the coast of the Rio Uruguay.

this factory caused an international incident and protestors blocked the international bridge for more than 3 years.

 

"Tabaré Vázquez mentioned in October 2011 that he had considered the possibility of an armed conflict with Argentina over the topic, and sought support of the United States (during the presidency of George Bush) in such a case. He had interviews with Condoleezza Rice, and ordered the military commanders to stay ready"

Pilar industrial complex is finished. I placed some Flak in the middle. Make a nice firework.

Its astonishing, that Flak hits something. This time the tailsection of my wingman.

BTW: Does Argentina has SAM?

We have some Roland II Trailers

 

There was a canceled proyect named:  TAM VCLM, it was a TAM Chassis with a Roland II turret (it can be found on the SF1 section)

 

And we had Strela 2M, Blowpipe and RBS 70 NG

Sorry, i made a mistake

In 1981 we get some Roland 1 trailers (not active today) and two years later the roland 2 arrived to the country and continue to be on service.

 

Also, the argentine navy has at least 1 triple tigercat launcher, but cant find info about it.

I was busy with creating the large Steel factory of Campana in Argentina.

In editor it looked good, but in game i realized: "F..ck, there are growing trees through the roof!"

they're are growing trees through the roof!

couldn't that be considered a move on the company to go greener???

[+Gepard 11,158]

All trees are felled. The steel mill is painted a little differently. I like it better that way.

 

[+Gepard 11,158]

SitRep: Campana Steel Plant, again. I added some buildings and a port with two cargoships. Then i repainted the steel work building a second time.

Then i have started to build the oil refinery of Campana which is close to the Steel Plant.

[+Gepard 11,158]

SitRep: i added more buildings to the Campana Oil Refinery. The refinery and the Steel Plant now have Flak protection. If you have SAM for the Argentinians then one SAM site is part of the Steel Plant defence.

A small airfield near Gualeguay, Argentina. I think in reality it is used by a local airclub. But usefull for smaller combat planes, if the mainrunway is extended.

When i searched with Google Earth i found a small airfield near Santa Teresita, Argentina. Its a very simple runway and it was very easy to create this airfield for the terrain.

It is located in the area, in which i made the british beachhead. On the first view it is a nice thing to use this base as forward airfield. But unfortunatly the game engine now starts all "Friendly" missions from this base and ignore all other airfields. Thatswhy i will set this base to NEUTRAL. So it is visible in game. 

Not good. I will sleep about it, perhaps i will find a better solution.

SitRep: I started to create a separate tile for the argentinian Nuclear Powerplant Atucha. Its much smaller than Energodar, what i made for Ukraine terrain.

Its the first step. No green tile made so far. It will come later.

I placed some buildings and the two reactors. There will come much more.

What i would need are some transformers or electrical substations, which are to place in the gray square with the 3 dark lines. I dont know wheter someone had created them for an other terrain.

re: Santa Teresita air field. no need to make it neutral, just remove the airfield data ini call out in the targets ini. it then just becomes another area, with a non functional runway (i've done this before)

as to the power station, sub-station, check out the "Object Liberary 1" (the "af***" items) there's a couple of industrial buildings, with smokestacks that can be made to work (af52 & af53). Also, the vPower1, 2 and 3 from VNSEA. These are high-tension wire towers (with no wires in between. they're the 3 objects to the right of vIndustrial4). And Julheim's and wingwinner's factory items.

[+Gepard 11,158]

Thx Wrench. I used vPower3. It fit in size perfect to the sat picture, which i used for making the tile. It seems to be that vPower3 is made exactly for this tile.

[+Gepard 11,158]

Next development step: i added some more buildings, Flak and SAM cover and finally i planted some trees.

The final step will be to make a green tile. But not today. Tomorrow is also a day.
