for Boco!

Yep, the unit I have been stumped with is a unit representing the sappers of the FMLN...
(The others I can mostly cover with work of others or my own mods). The sappers also took out the El Paraíso base in 1983, (and at least two more times during the war). Another special forces commando made world news when it managed to escape the Sheraton Hotel in 1989, though they were completely surrounded...

Also, I am trying to figure out some of the other units. They used a bomber described as having four propellers, which makes it sound like a B-17 (B-29?), but in 1980 that does not make too much sense... or does it? Are C-47's also bombers? Do they have four propellers...

Also, a strange looking propeller plane, kind of fat, with a strange looking structure (reminiscent of the P-47, but not nearly as big), said to be used as an observation plane, but sometimes it could carry a 300 or 500 pound bomb... I don't think it's american.

Finally, a helicopter referred to as "avispita" (little wasp), armed with rockets... Does this sound like a Huey?

Horrifying times, indeed...

The twin engine C-47 gooney bird was a WWII vintage transport.


The Dassault Ouragon fighter dates from 1949.

The Brits made a Wasp ASW chopper in the 60's, but the land version was called the Scout.

Dunno 'bout the prop plane. Corsair, Skyraider?
El Salvador flew the last known Corsair mission by a foreign nation in 1971.

What about the A37 Dragonfly? They flew it at one point.

I now believe it was the MD-500 Defender that they were referring to. Fits the description.

MIRAGE 2000s Support Apolyton, buy Galactic Civilizations: Deluxe Edition

Colourscheme- markings matching for the mirages is a nightmare, since many operators use multiple versions with different camo. Roughly speaking the first two, top row are universal colour schemes for Mirage 2000 E/-5/-9 users (France, Greece, Taiwan, UAE, Qatar). I guess that if Brazil gets its own, they 'll be painted similarly.
The third one with the black radar dome corresponds to a French Mirage C or an Indian Mirage H. The all grey one is an Egyptian -C, and the desert camo one is Peruvian (However, French machines in desert duty are painted similarly). I think I saw an Egyptian all-desert scheme somewhere, so there you go. Enjoy!

Sad to hear that, dude.

Is there anything we in CIV2 creation can do to help speed up the reconstruction process?

I recommend starting a thread for the scenario...
I for one would be happy to help you with units or shields, etc...

Units yugoslavia Support Apolyton, buy GURPS/ Alpha Centauri

I'll start a new thread but before that i'll tell you a little bit about the infantry unit camouflage i at least tried to impose on the units.

The UçK guy wears german flecktarn, at least it looks nearly like that from this range. Base was i think an Australian Soldier?! AK-47 Inclusive.

The next is a serbian chetnik with a MG-34 ( Yeah, this one's still in use in Yugoslavia ). He wears late serbian camouflage pants ( Look like woodland without that light brown and a little bit more round ). and a Hat with old yugoslav pattern ( Looks like US tigerstripe pattern without black). The shirt's a remnat from the Base, an soldier from the columbian scenario.

The Muslim warrior with the green shield looks just
stupid, i think this one will be deleted soon.

The insurgent Unit is a Milita wearing woodland. I guess i'll give him a camouflage pant, for he too looks just stupid.

Next one is a HVO/HOS ( Bosnian Croat military ) Soldier wearing old yugoslav camouflage. Base was the Waffen SS soldier from NEMO i think?!

The brown guy's just a clumsy policemen.

The next one'S a croatian Soldier wearing croatian pattern ( Like Woodland, just more darker and brownish ).

Then a Federal Army yugoslavian Soldier wearing old pattern and the funny yugoslav Helmet. Base was a Nemofrenchmen.

Next's a serbian soldier in late serbian camouflage.

Then a stupid looking mercenary with a M-16. Looks like he s*** in his pants.

Then a macedonian Soldier with old pattern and funny helmet ( Guess from where ).

The frenchmen was thought to be a slovenaina soldier, just did'nt find the camouflage pattern of the slovenian Army yet.

Then a BiH ( Bosnia and Hercegovina ) Soldier in late serbian camouflage pants, and green shirt ( Will be replaced, because the Bosnians used some kind of just green woodland ). I'll keep the hat, because it looks just too funny. Base was a Nemo turkish.

The black SF Unit is a Special Force soldier, looks kind'a neat that guy , i just like him.


The other things are NOT yet completed ( I will add camouflage and do some Major redo of some of them except the Mortar.
There i used an Australian? Mortar. The original had a just too fat assy and so i redid the whole thing. the only original body part left is the right leg, hehe.

Other things in the new Thread
