Looking for help

[NapalmKnight49]

Im looking for help with a scenario im going to create. The scenario is going to be a fictional scenario "American-Australian War", I got the idea from playiong "Grand Theft Auto: Vice City" it says in a radio commercial for the gun store "Ammunation" you can get sucha a sucha weapon that was used to kick Australias @$$. I plan to have the U.S.A. and Indoneisa be on the same side and Australia(communist) and Malaysia to be allies. But what i need is a map of Australia including Indonesia,Malaysia, some U.S. "sattalite" nations, Tasmania, and other nearby land in the southwest pacific. Im also looking for an Australian Airborne unit, Aussie Tanks, Helicopters, Ships, Malaysian Tanks, Helicopters, Ships, and Indonesian Tanks, Helicopters, Ships. They all have to be circa 1985-1995(most still in use). Any help here would be greatly appreciated

well i dunno much which kind of help youre looking for, but if you want to know which kind of equipment they use, i think i can provide you with a few links

that is if you cant find out what you need using google

Yes i do kinda need your help, it will be with the units if you dont mind, Like i said i need Australian Airborne unit, Aussie Tanks/Helicopters/planes/Ships, Malaysian Tanks/Helicopters/planes/Ships, and Indonesian Tanks/Helicopters/planes/Ships. I have most infantry(Typhoon's) for the nations im using, i plan having the war be between 1985-present with minor advancedments. I also need a map. So yeah if you could give me some links to put me in the right direction it would be super

from the top of my head, all i know about australias armed forces is that they use their own domesticly produced copy of the steyr aug for assault rifles and that they have MG3´s for machine gun!

also i think their airborne unit is called SAS, just like the british counterpart!

i dont think there has been any major changes in the aussies inventory since 95 untill now, which is a good thing for you i guess

ill see what i can find on indonesia and malaysia, ill keep you posted

ps. if youre asking for in-game icons of diffrent stuff (tanks etc) try posting in the units thread, its stickied at the top of this forum

Hey thanks for the links , i will use them to the fullest, also like i said before im new at this how do i get into a "Scenario edit" mode, cause all i've done is edit units with different stuff i've found on the net(ie: Typhoons units), also still need some kind of map, which i'll try to make with one i found on a "World book" cd i have, but i need one with rivers and what not. And i also need to find out how to make units avabile to certian countries, i've tried by editing the "Rules.txt" by replacing certian advancements but it failed and i had to reload the rules with my back up. gonna try and see if giving certian wonders will work with what i want to do.

well im affraid all ive done is to make unit icons and tool around with the rules.txt

one tip would be to post in one of the sticky threads on top of this forum, some of the scenario makers read them and might be able to help

and a tip that i got here was to upgrade my civ2 to civ2gold

you can find the files here: http://www.civfanatics.com/civ2/downloads/cedric/
its free but after you upgrade youll need to have the civ2 cd in, or you wont be able to run civ2
