Italy and the Balkans is a pretty interesting area to fly around , great scenery and mountain ranges !
I was eagerly anticipating the official FSX@War Balkans Theatre , it looked bloody awesome !
For whatever reason it never came to fruition , Doh! So I'm building my own .
Here is the start of my Theatre , so far I've created one single Airbase - Brindisi . Gotta start somewhere ;)

The FSX@War Balkan theatre was at an advanced stage. It would have been great if they had released it :(
-
Yeah real shame , what those guys can do is way ahead of what i can do . But i'm not waiting around , and i really want to fly military stuff in that region so hence , making my own .
Gonna really take my time with this one though , working on 1 or 2 things at a time and i'm not moving on untill i'm happy . lots of historical reading to do and maps to check out . P3d and Fsx@war has limitations of course , but i'm trying to get things right as much as possible so its a slow build .
Watch this space - updates coming tomorrow .

Side by side , not too shabby . A pretty good representation of the RW Brindisi Airport .

I need to think about frame rates so I cant go mad placing objects everywhere . A few more tweaks and I think I'm there with Brindisi AB .

Latest pics of Batajnica airbase .
Upgraded all the afcads using google earth to get it as close as i can while still keeping it pleasing to the eye , added plenty of destructible buildings and some p3d buildings to give it variety . Samsite placed where it should be and added AAA , manpads , Shilka's etc . Pretty pleased with it tbh .
Its a beast to take down , the scenery is flat and open fields so it's very easy for the defenses to paint you . Anything other than the Superbug is really challenging and its alot of fun to take on . :winner
On to the next one soon , might do a factory of some , sort not sure yet . :book

Put it this way , it's a two man job atleast , and we'll need a plan . Someone needs to distract the SA2 so it'll be short straws :sifone

Theater Looks great, you guys ever thought of doing a Vietnam era one ? The SimWorks Phantom is on sale at the moment, I should probably get it so I can join you guys.
-
There is a South East Asia pack out there somewhere , which is why I havent done one . Might need adjusting to work in p3dv4 but shouldnt be too hard , not sure if it's still supported though .
Welcome to join us anytime Skoop :thumbsup
That SWS Phantom is really good value plus you get a Carrier , quite tempted to grab it myself .

I've come up with a campaign idea , purely fictional - No Politics!
BACKGROUND
Serbia has invaded Kosovo
The Allied Forces in the US and EU are mobilising .
Our key Airbase in Brindisi will be our main operations base .
THE DETAILS
Currently the Airbase has an inventory of 0 .
In order to fly sorties in the Balkans we need to move weapons , jets etc into Brindisi .
You can fly any Civil/Cargo plane into Brindisi to add to the inventory . Small plane would add 10 inventory , large plane would add 30 .
When Brindisi is at 100 a sortie can be undertaken against a Balkans target .
Each Sortie would consume 20 Inventory per Jet/plane .
Once a Sortie is undertaken attrition will affect Brindisi to simulate enemy attacks .
Brindisi will lose 2 attrition per day no matter what .
The idea is you need to create a good network of delivery of inventory and sorties to win the campaign .
I would have to create a spreadsheet to record everything .
You can fly online or offline - I would need some screenshots to say where and what your flying in order to prove it was flown and can then update the spreadsheets .
Pretty cool idea I think , the numbers will need a tweak of course . Open to ideas and input , this is just something I've been thinking about and I think it could be pretty fun .

Started working on SFRY tv station .

-
Not a bad idea. Where would the Civilian aircraft fly from ?
-
At the moment i'm thinking it doesn't really matter . As long as a flight is flown into Brindisi , the inventory is added .
That way it's open to everyone .
Thats the way I'm thinking atm .

Nice, so a 737 from Aviano to Brindisi would net some inventory. I could finally use the Navy livery for the PMDG 737 !
-
Yeah thats what I'm thinking , so if you dont fly with Tacpack etc you can still contribute .
-
I'm basically looking for an excuse to fly a 737 , Duke , and Milviz 310 Redux in FSX@War :lol
Wars need cargo planes and inventory at the end of the day :winner

SFRY Broadcasting station complete .

Looking at doing another Airbase and then start creating factorys and other types of targets .
Also gonna think about adding it to my Mediafire account and adding a link here for ppl's conveniance . A few more target areas and we will have a mini Theatre which is worth linking , for now it's testing only but if you want it you can pm or post here I'm happy to share .

The updates to Balkans Theatre continues , everything is pretty much custom made . It takes me longer but the results are better in my opinion .
WIP of a military HQ I'm working on currently .

I've been mixing up FSX@War objects and P3D scenery objects which allows really detailed scenery , and keeps frames high . Pretty pleased with the results .

Started work on Ladevci Airbase .
So far I've created the Afcad and adjusted all the polygons to fit within the scenery . Here is a pick of it installed in p3d .

Great work Reds :thumbsup
This will be used a lot :fighter
Thanks

Got a long way to go to get this one going , it doesnt exist in P3d so its a full build from scratch but it will be worth the effort .
-
Lots of progress made , it's starting to look like a full blown theatre now .
It's a fairly large Theatre and you cant really see in this pic but in the Tactical Engagement map screen there are clusters of Factorys,Sam sites and Airbases .
