DMO_CWN, DMOrchard's Cold War NATO

Description
This mod attempts to recreate the armed forces of various NATO members during the late Cold War with a focus on retextured Creator DLC assets. Look for BLUFOR factions with [CWN] prefix in Eden/Zeus asset menus.

[CWN] factions...
USAREUR - US Army Europe, circa 1983
  • Dependent on the US85 faction from CSLA-IC cDLC (or compatibility data) for character uniforms, gear, and weapons.
  • Load alongside the DCX_IC mod to add vehicles from the US85 faction, retextured in MERDC camouflage where appropriate.
  • Additional vehicles and static weapons added when loaded alongside the DCX_VN mod
  • CH-53D is added when the DCX_GM mod is loaded
  • see full lists of vehicles in the change notes

CFE - Canadian Forces Europe, circa 1986

BAOR - British Army of the Rhine, circa 1986

Recommended "soft-dependency" mods...

Next update...
  • Add CFE and BAOR unit groups to Eden & Zeus menus.
  • Add static Javelin AA launchers where applicable
  • Further development of the factions
  • Explore alternative soft dependencies for uniforms, gear, and weapons
  • Retexture the Leopard 2A4 in the CLV and UAF mods and configure them into GM cDLC's West German faction

Awesome.

Yes. I'm still cooking things up :)

RHS and maybe even 3CB Factions could be good soft dependencies for this.

Another great piece of work, thanks

good target

Can't wait to see what comes of this! Especially the Canadian Forces in Europe, With Jamie's Basic and SOG you could create pretty faithful Canadian infantry with almost no other dependencies!

I plan to do that. I need Alice packs from US85 - also weapons - so it just makes sense from a "least dependencies" perspective to be CSLA-IC based, for now. I am looking at mod combination alternatives for current and future factions within the mod.

You should use my boy Jamie's Basic mod since he has US gear in there now.

Apologies to Lucky_Lexi in the DMO_USSR comments. On second thought, you were right :)
