Description from the Workshop
This mod is a constant work in progress - expect missing features, bugs, and ongoing updates. Step into the South African Border War of the 1970s and 80s, a conflict defined by cross-border raids, counterinsurgency operations, and large-scale conventional battles. From the thornbush of northern Namibia to the dusty plains of southern Angola, the SADF faced a determined enemy in SWAPO insurgents, FAPLA forces, and Cuban troops. Operate in an unforgiving theater where ambushes, minefields, and sudden firefights are constant threats. Take part in deep-penetration patrols, heliborne assaults, and armored thrusts across remote battlefields. With authentic period equipment, weapons, and tactics, every engagement carries the intensity and unpredictability of real history. Fight on hostile ground, where mobility is key and survival depends on cunning. Patrols are tense, every contact is dangerous, and each decision can mean the difference between success and disaster. Adapt. Survive. Outmaneuver. In the Border War, there are no easy victories—only hard-won ground. Made by Pronto who continues to do such great work for the BUSHWAR community.
