Michal Harangozó from Bohemia Interactive has informed us about the upcoming release of Arma 2: Reinforcements, a standalone expansion pack to Arma 2. It includes already released DLCs Arma 2: British Armed Forces and Arma 2: Private Military Company, but as standalone boxed version on DVD with own multiplayer key.
Prague, Czech republic 3rd March - Bohemia Interactive, award winning independent game development studio is please to officially announce the forthcoming release of a standalone expansion pack to the military simulator Arma 2. Reinforcements will hit the shelves in the beginning of April 2011.
Arma 2: Reinforcements brings two independent factions – British Armed Forces and Private Military Company – onto one DVD. Play it separately in non-linear campaign or join friends in multiplayer battles with up to 50 players and hundreds of AI units. Find out the sequential dramatic events of Takistan, originally described in Arma 2: Operation Arrowhead. Deploy a mechanized division of British Armed Forces sent to reinforce Coalition troops battling a large-scale outbreak of Guerrilla insurgency, or join the Private Military Company, contracted to protect a UN weapons inspection team in Takistan.
Marek Španěl, Bohemia Interactive CEO, on the release of Arma 2: Reinforcements: “We´ve received numerous requests from our customers and the community to deliver both expansions on DVD. We´re always trying to deliver something more and here it is, new campaigns, dozens of units all completely standalone to be played solo or to be combined with our other great military simulators into one ultimate pack. And that’s not forgetting the hundreds of superb community made addons/mods/campaigns which are fully compatible with all versions of our games including Arma 2: Reinforcements”
As a special bonus, each retail version of Arma 2: Reinforcements in Europe includes a unique printed, large map showing Takistan on the front with Shapur & The Proving Grounds on the reverse. Plan your military operations in style!
Arma 2: Reinforcements will be deployed exclusively for PC starting April 1st 2011. It will be available for EUR 29.99.
Having watched recent events in Egypt on TV, I noticed the interesting camo patterns of the Egyptian army and tried to recreate that for our favorite game, using the Takistani and some Russian models as base because their gear seems to fit best from all BIS models available in game. I know that e.g. the helmets are not perfect because Egypt uses the old US steel helmet and not the soviet one, but using a model with the modern US helmet would have looked even worse. Also there are not that many photos to be googled that could help me in the process, nevertheless I think I came pretty close to the real thing. I hope you can live with the various small and not so small discrepancies and enjoy my mod. And well, if you can't, then just don't use it and make your own.
Only tested with Combined Ops, not sure if it will work in Arrowhead alone. But I recommend buying Arma2 vanilla anyway if you don't have it, and be it only to support BIS.
Included are soldiers with the so called scrambled egg pattern, a camo for the desert, and soldiers wearing the nile delta camo, something also described as plane tree pattern. The latter are wearing also vests in the US 3-color desert camo pattern found on the DCU. Then there is a general in green uniform and a so-called Ranger in the Egyptian variant of the 6-color desert camo also known as "chocolate chip pattern" (which is not widely used by seemingly given out to some special units). Also included is a Presidential Guard soldier, who I put in the OPFOR faction while the rest is in the independent faction. That leaves more options for mission makers, e.g. a fictional fight between army and presidential guard is possible, although that has luckily been avoided in real life due to Mubarak being slightly less subborn than Ghaddafi. But of course you can just edit my config for your own use if you want it differently.
Mr Burns of cal.68 mod released version 1.1 of the mod on the BIS forums.

Very early previews. HEMMTS are OFP release models redone. All models are up to ArmA2 standards and working in-game (.i.e Shadowvolumes, Ambient Occlusion, etc)
Enjoy and be kind. It's been a while for me!
