[SIZE="7"][B][U]Operation Marlin v1.0[/U][/B][/SIZE][/CENTER]


Hi Soldiers !

I'd like to introduce you the changes you will find on Operation Marlin in the version 1.0 of Project Reality.
Any comments you have written since the release of this map convinced me to make structural changes.
The main idea of ​​these changes is to expand the battlefield all around the map and allow the infantry to move with more discretion and protection.
So, I've created a new combat zone in the middle-south of the map, named Dam. Between flags and empty areas, I added forests to protect and hide soldiers. Also you will find many modifications inside the main city for hiding or making ambushes. Saint Tropez Resort and UN outpost have being re done with basements under buildings, as French Embassy, for having more fun fights. :-D

Now, enough words and let me show what it looks like ... :roll:

The good news is ... after having waited two years ... that you'll fight with [B]French Forces[/B], or against ... :mrgreen:
Thanks to the French Forces team ([R-DEV]Hauteclocque, [R-CON]Sgt_Doctor, [R-CON]Bao, aXoCHaPo, ...), without them, nothing would have been possible. Thanks to PR Team for having corrected, optimized, debugged and integrated the French Army in Project Reality.

On to Operation Marlin, the French Army fight under the flag of the United Nations. So French soldiers wear the blue helmet and french vehicles have UN camo !

A special thanks to the Canadian Forces, to have fought with honor and courage during these two years in Operation Marlin ;-)
It's time, now, for France to enter the battle ...

Hope you like these changes and enjoy them ! 8-)
