Look at Nevada Map, Balkans Theater would be lot less populated in most areas than the Nevada.ī: Aviano Airbase: Aviano Airbase is dozen miles out of the square I drew on the map above, and the square is just for theater size comparison. Since ex-Yu countries are mostly hills/mountains, the villages and the cities there are built in a scattered fashion. What makes impact on performance/engine (or other way around) is the number of objects and their polygons. After that we made sure to have the Danish Leopards nearby and they came to some good use now and thenĪ: "Caucasus area is less populated in the north" - You are talking about terrain mesh. It was a long chain of approval that ultimately had to go all the way to New York, so you could imagine that if we ever got a “GO” a couple of hours later the situation had changed anyway and the F-16’s back at their base a long time ago. Once when we tried to get support we realized that the UN administration wasn’t really up to the task of a prompt chain of command. For that we had a Danish (Nato) FAC in the battalion. I was on the ground with a blue helmet some years before that (94/95), and then we occasionally had some american F-16’s in the air, supposedly to act as CAS. There are so many things that could be done with scenarios, including operating in bad weather with a high hard deck, playing "what if" with the ROE and allowing aircraft to fly low, or even historical "what ifs" involving larger scale factional fighting.Īllied force is also the first time that the F-14Bs acted as FAC(A)/SCAR to Hornets and Warthogs (VF-41 as documented in Black Aces High) I shouldn't have to spell out the multiplayer potential this has! :joystick: This would be a great theater I was involved in Allied Force back in the day. If you'd like to wink at Eagle Dynamics to possibly revise the suggestion - I advise making a lot of "yes" votes in the poll attached. Now, this is just an idea I am (again) throwing out. :D I'd even buy one for a friend if I have the money XDĪs you can see on the attached picture, the size of the possible Balkans Theatre is right fitting to the size of Caucasus theatre - so I suppose that DCS engine can gobble it without problems.Īlso, regarding the '90s, pay attention that there is the Nato Aviano Airbase located just left of the western rectangle. If you're not informed - Yugoslavia was one of the first countries to have airforce and was pretty closely allied to the west.Ĥ.
Developers could, from the start, work on double-deal: Making the geographical theater and then making 2 versions of objects populating it - '90s scenery, and WWII scenery. The amount of possible fictional scenarios looking back on the '90s is quite appealing.ģ. The theatre is quite fitting both for missions/campaigns in the early '90s and late '90s and for great story telling aspect in campaigns. Balkans/Yugoslavia cover at least 2 real life engagements that most of the DCS players heard of. Theater size is almost the same as the Caucasus (no performance issues for the engine)Ģ. Balkans theater would make a great addition to the DCS for multiple reasons, and I will name only few:ġ.
