Desert Storm for SF2 Released.....
CavtankerKyle replied to Dave's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
I agree that the ODS mod is very A+. I just like creating the single missions of flying a 2 x F-15E, F-16, or F/A-18 to destroy 1 or 2 Mitsubishi vans or gun positions. Not a lot of eye candy, but contemporary real world. -
Desert Storm for SF2 Released.....
CavtankerKyle replied to Dave's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
Is there any chance for a 2003 OIF campaign? Hell, we have the terrain and all of the necessary aircraft. Just no air to air action. But at least we have Bombcats! -
We may never know the whole story behind this situation. Maybe she didn't want it, but her leadership pushed her to accept it. But who knows... I know of leadership that doesn't want to give out medals. To summarize their thoughts: 'Combat arms soldiers are supposed to get shot at/blown up in combat Why do they deserve a medal for that? That's in their duty description'. And, as a result, hundreds of soldiers came home from this particular deployment without anything at all.

Congrats to you both!

Let's face the facts, my friends. With force management (i.e. layoffs) being implemented, one should take the awards and kudos one can get. The force management board (i.e. the guys that decide upon the layoffs) might have to choose between an E-6 that does have a BSM, and an E-6 that doesn't. With a situation like this, take a guess as to who will get to stay around, and who will be handed the outprocessing checklist? With the way things are now, a decision will come down to 'how high is' your physical fitness test score, or how good/not good do you look in your official photo....

What must be with next SF2 title...
CavtankerKyle replied to BearGryllis's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 2 Series - General Discussion
I want the ability to determine the type of stationary/static aircraft that are on the ramp at airfields and a zoom function to place ground objects (as found in IL-2 1946). -
