The Secret Project

DarthVeda · September 4, 2001, 11:55

Yes, I'm interrupting (laugh) work on Kyokujitsu to bring you this breaking news.

I have a secret project in the works.

Feel free to guess.

Here's a few notes though:

The scenario will be for Fantastic Worlds.
It is going to use mostly off-the-shelf units from a recent scenario.

Heres the pic

Jimmywax · September 4, 2001, 14:04

Korea?

DarthVeda · September 4, 2001, 14:14

Maybe...

Case · September 4, 2001, 19:22

If its not about Korea, is it the version of 'Raging Dragon' designed for play as the Russians that you were talking about making a while ago?

Stefan Härtel · September 4, 2001, 19:36

World War Two in China.

DarthVeda · September 5, 2001, 01:12

Some more clues:

The tentative title is "Red Cataclysm"

I require the following units if anybody has them on hand already, if not I'll draw them:

Il-28
AH-64
AH-1
F-4
F-5

and another pic...

Modern day invasion of South Korea. I see a DMZ, modern combat helmets, and fighters that the U.S. doesn't fly anymore but gave away in large numbers.

Goingonit · September 5, 2001, 13:24

Correct me if I'm wrong, but don't the Chinese use quite a few F-4s? Of course, they're obsolete. The South Korea thing sounds right.

Jimmywax · September 5, 2001, 16:52

I was thinking of the F-4 Phantom, which the chinese have none. They may have another plane with that designation though since they usually have a different name for their stuff than us.

Case · September 5, 2001, 18:55

I'll change my vote to modern day Korean War

Here are some units DV. They're all taken from a compilation put together by Jimmywax, and from left to right are by: BreBro, Captain Nemo and Andrew Livings.

techumseh · September 6, 2001, 01:54

American invasion of North Vietnam?

Jimmywax · September 6, 2001, 11:16

How about something involving East Germany and some other warsaw pact countries before the fall of the wall. I just keep looking at those helmets and can't quite figure them out. they remind me of the old Nazi helmets, but they also kind of look like the kevlar helmets we switched to in the mid eighties.

DarthVeda · September 6, 2001, 15:26

okay I just need the Il-28 and F-5 now... thanks case...

Another clue is that I'm taking the map straight out of one of my older scenarios.

Prometeus · September 6, 2001, 15:34

Got a Korea map on my website, if you need it.

PS Your Kiokujitsu is a great scen. I found several other pics of japanese carriers ( the Akagi ); if you need some...

PPS Take a look to this thread... I got a nice AH-64 for my Dragon War scenario.

Jimmywax · September 6, 2001, 20:47

O.K., I am going back to my original guess of Modern Korea. I have another question though. I have never been able to download your Korean War scenario. Is it missing like IE tells me or is it just screwed up.

Shadowstrike · September 6, 2001, 21:21

Something DotW-related?

Well, we have had second Korean Wars god knows how many times......

Mao · September 6, 2001, 22:02

The PLAAF has a J-4, which was designated both as F-4 and J-4 by NATO until recently, now it's accepted as the J-4 I think. It's a copy of the MiG-15 IIRC

Ya know I knew that, but I just couldn't find the damn thing anywhere.

I have several links from when I had a China vs. Taiwan in mind, I couldn't find it to save my ass though.

DarthVeda · September 6, 2001, 23:02

Thanks Prometeus, but mine is better

TeeHee. Something with the GRC???

DarthVeda · September 10, 2001, 16:07

here is the giveaway...

Case · September 10, 2001, 19:13

Looking very good

- How much work have you done on the scenario so far?

edit: wow, only 100 more posts before I can change my Atavar

Jimmywax · September 10, 2001, 21:54

Woo Hoo !

I was right. Them are some fine looking jets you made there too.

P.S. Then again, it is pretty hard to be wrong when you shoot at everything.

P.S.S. Any word on that original Korean War scenario.

Goingonit · September 10, 2001, 21:59

What are the blue-shield units?

I would say U.N.

DarthVeda · September 10, 2001, 22:06

Did you try the mirror at geocities?

But yeah, it's a modern Korean war scenario. I successfully imported those Jet graphics from Falcon 4.0 (great for importing lots of modern aircraft and weaponry).

And the blue flag units are the United Nations since the UN technically exercises control over the combined army in South Korea.

I just tried the mirror site and it came along beautifully.

Falcon huh? I may have to buy it and see what they got.

Prometeus · September 11, 2001, 05:41

A tip about wonders - take a look to yin26 thread about Korean Civ3 project...

Case · September 11, 2001, 06:33

How many Korean War scenarios are now underway?
I seem to remember reading posts by Cavadeus (sp?) and Jimmywax hinting that they had Korean war scenarios under construction.

Maybe someone should set up a scenario design competition?
