Title: Cuito Cuanavale
Post by: orson on November 26, 2017, 08:41:16 PM

  Been playing through the bushwars DLC , witnessed a magnificent battle 4 turns into the 3rd campaign. I was outnumbered but had some interesting force multipliers , 4x Ollifant , a ZSU and a flight of 3x SA-316B alouette-3 .
             The first action was the ZSU crew spotting a train of infantry jogging down the msr , I am quite used to the usual MG tracer and sound effects , when the ZSU opens up it is so cool , I love how it rocks with the recoil, the poor dudes jogging down the road took it in the face and went to ground wondering what hit them . The ZU was on a hill and had them in plain view , just continued chewing them up .
                 Almost simultaneously the Alouette flight showed up and started orbiting the battle , kicking the crap out of everything ! Man those things are nasty . After the Olli's killed the Russian tanks in a sweet ambush , the remaining infantry retreated .

 And then there is the Ratel IFV . The movement is just broken , either making extra movements or just humping each other , large formations are painful to watch , please try and fix them , I want to finish the campaign without grinding my teeth away .

Nice write-up.

I don't think it's likely. If I am not mistaken the last patch for the GT Operation Star came out in 2015. The developers have supported GTOS for quite a long time and now switched over to Tunisia and Mius games. I hope they eventually rerelease GTOS DLCs for the newer games.

GTOS came out in 2010 and was supported for 5 years. It was to be expected for support to cease one day, especially since they've released a new game.
By the way, you should try the Angola campaign in Steel armor. It's more bush war, but from a different perspective.
