Basra Brit Suggestion

DeltaFart · Post by **DeltaFart** » 2008-03-14 02:02

After reading my Armchair General April/May issue, I got an idea for the Basra map. Make the Brits on it look like The Black Watch (42d Regiment of Foot now 3rd Battalion, Royal Regiment of Scotland) with the red hackle (flowery thing in beret?) and sounds of scots for the voices in that map. THey appearently helped in the 2003 liberation of Basra, and is considered a legendary combat unit, with 260 years of service to teh crown. I think it would be cool

Having the brits different on just that map means new skins for all of them, and I believe you would have to double the classes so you could have ones with the regular brit camo (for the other brit maps) and ones with the black watch uniforms as well.

I dont think this will get top on the Devs to do list. But on the other hand even with reality it is not needed as there are British Forces already serving on the map.

They got rid of that before WW2, unfortunately.
I just thought it would be really cool to have an actual named unit who had been there at the time of the event for the map. Would be pretty cool to have instead of UK, 42d Foot and Insurgents, and on Iraq maps, that are based on real things, have the names of the units in the game. But that would make it hard for the devs wouldn't it?

Someone skin me the Black Watch! I'd love it

We can use the Angry Scot voices from Worms 2 for the accents.
Instead of "Follow me" we'd have "C'mon yer waste me time"
And "That was bloody stupid, by the way"

It'd be ace!

Oooh, that's hot!

And instead of arresting civilians, they should change the civilian "arresting" to "molesting" too!
