VW Hippy Van
allenjb42 replied to JimBeamer5's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - File Announcements
Lol, 'Scooby Doo, Where Aaarrre You?' We'll need some of the hippy version parked outside RAF Greenham Common in the next rebuild of the cold war EAWEuro terrain. -
By Dawn's Early Light was a great film. It was based on the book Trinity's Child by William Prochnau. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trinity's_Child I read it when it came out in 1983 and it scared the cr*p out of me!

Vey nice. Doing workups for Operation Southern Watch or OIF addons to ODS? -
I remember seeing a demo video for SFG and bought it on the strength of that alone. Found SimHQ, stayed a while, and then joined The Great Exodus here to the promised land. I still look in on the Thirdwire forum but it's not the same. BTW - Just downloaded the ODS (Only Dave's Sycophants?) mod and am lovin' it!

Top Gun and BoB. But I love them all! Except Skyfighters, which I had to Google. Looks good but is it available on Region 2 DVD?

It's snowing on and off here in Bury/Manchester. Nothing too bad though. Having said that, when I got into work we found that the boiler had broken so we're going to close early And the boss forked out for fish and chips for everyone for lunch too Also, when I dropped my daughter off at school this morning the kids were having the mother of all snowball fights in the playground!

Operation Pit Viper, or, yet another Dhimar/Paran Conflict
allenjb42 replied to Viggen's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mission/Campaign Building Discussion
Instead of Dhimar being supported by the US, how about if it was a former British or French colony, and their forces were the ones called in to the fray. For the Brits you could have Invincible with Harriers and Sea Harriers, and maybe RAF Jaguars in Desert Pink, while Dhimar flys Hunters, maybe upgrading to Hawks and possibly Tornados (the Saudi skin could be the base for a Dhimari one). If it was a former French colony you could have a carrier with Crusaders and Super Etendards, land based Mirage IIIs and F1s in desert camo, and Dhimar could have Super Mysteres and Mirage IIIs, and maybe some Alphajets. Another idea - would it be possible to make Paran friendly and Dhimar the enemy, equiping them accordingly? Then you could get a new perpective out of the map. -
Nation specific ground objects?
allenjb42 posted a topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mods/Skinning Discussion
I'm putting together a 'WOEMAC' install based around the excellent Black Sea terrain. The main contenders will be Russia vs Ukraine, and I'll add in Turkey and maybe some other NATO stuff later once it's up and running. I fly mostly single game generated missions, so as Russia and Ukraine use a lot of the same planes I'll be making nation specific Ukrainian versions of the planes and a selection of weapons. Do I need to do the same with ground objects (tanks, trucks ZSU-23-4 etc) and for SAM missiles too? I don't want the Russian planes facing US tanks and AAA. Any assistance would be appreciated. -
Nation specific ground objects?
allenjb42 replied to allenjb42's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - Mods/Skinning Discussion
Thought so. Thanks for the assistance guys. p.s. Kevin, don't forget to place a ZSU-23-4 outside the prison at Kermanshah, Iran, to throw a spanner in the works of Operation Warlord -

Fantastic new book released in March
allenjb42 replied to The_Editor's topic in Thirdwire: Strike Fighters 1 Series - General Discussion
Looks good. Maybe we could have a book thread or section in the Pub? Fiction and non-fiction sections where we can post reviews and/or links to books that we have read or want to read. What about it moderators? -

Kevin, that opens up a LOT of possibilities... Clint in the Firefox of course, but the you could also have George Peppard in a Fokker DR1, Michael Caine in a Spitfire, John Wayne in a P-40, or even Frank Sinatra in a P-38 to name just a few. Oh and all those cold war SAC movies you like so much too. -
