Combat Mission Battle for Normandy Battle Pack 1 - Low Visibility Scenario

It is night, it rains. We collide with the enemy and shoot point blank. A German tank has just escaped from our sights, right after wrecking some of my vehicles.

Grenades will not do, my men!
Random scenes from one of the scenarios of Battle Pack 1 follow. No AAR provided to avoid spoilers. Sorry about that.

DCS Mirage M-2000C - Let's Put Those Missiles to Good Use!

The Mirage M-2000C for DCS World is a beautiful bird to fly. It handles really well and has raw power for air combat maneuvering. As for getting into a simulated air to air engagement with it, the current M-2000C model has only one reliable weapons platform: the gun.

ARMA 3 - Eden 3D Editor

A great update for Arma 3 has come out a few days ago and the centerpiece was a new 3D Editor that makes things very easy for mission creators.

Placing a character, rotating it, giving it a certain height. All at the scenario creator's fingertips in a very well thought interface.
