And those have been recorded by french people, right? There's a difference between the congolese accent and the native french accent. Like the difference between british english and the accent that english-speaking africans have IIRC.
Will definately work as a "placeholder", but in order to make the faction feel real you will probably have to record new voices.

Nope. We're not making African Insurgents here. These guys are a bit more organised and not a Militia/Insurgency. To make those models would also cost lots of time, and is not quite 100% realistic in the DRC Scenario.

What Brummy said, just look at the wikipedia I posted on here, it's a somewhat functioning army, not just a bunch of guys in trucks like the Somalians in Mogadishu.

Ha.. well, when someone tells me, An African Soldier.. i aoutomatically say "Soldier? Rembels!" well, i have nothing bad whit Africa.. the idea sounds really good.. and you known, whit a Map, 1 Model and the skins will be added..

Also. i dont think if DRC have Airforce and Armour, i think the best tank will be T50, or even T38 From the WW2.. they have some of them..

Airforce.. None. Im not saying the dont have even a Glider.. not sure if they have Advanced Fighters.. not even Eurofighter.. i think they have F80 Starshooters.. correct me please.

Im keepin an eye on this.. looks really nice!

If you put them up against the Dutch or a similar small force, it may be possible to work the Congolese air force and armor units into the mod without turning them into a bunch of heavy coffins. The BLUFOR faction, whichever it may be, will be forced to seek out the infantry battle since they have superior superior small arms, but lack the heavy support needed to go head to head with Congo's armor and air force, instead functioning a bit like the militia on Assault on Mestia. Though I don't think any country would throw it's men into battle like that.

Faction created, is working on qwai. Currently using some Brit stuff. Flags are in work. Bring on the models and reskins and maps :D

Very important: We really need more kind of trees, anyone good in this stuff? I could ask EoD. Prefer to do it the PR way though :D I'll contact EoD anyway.

brum, ask for big bushy type vegitation, and make them as simple as possible (so you reduce lag)

here is something i made in my map (not for congo lol) just now, just want to show what is possible (this vegitation setup does not get much lag)
