British WoodLand Uniforms :S

Hey,

I had a close look at them and got confused.

Commando Flashes, Rifles Green Berets, and I don't even know what Cap Badge?

What's going on :P

They have Commando Flashes and therefore should have a Commando Green Beret (it's slightly lighter than the current one, which is more like the Rifles beret).

It may not seem a big deal to some - but the Green Beret is pretty damn important to lots of people, along with the Commando Flash it's a symbol that you are one of the British Elite, like the Maroon Beret of the Paras.

Also can some 1 tell me what that cap badge is? I don't recognise it

They're due an overhaul sometime in the not too distant future, i wouldn't worry about it too much.

If my memory serves me well, it depends on the map for what British woodland skin is in use. On OGT and Bi Ming, they are using a Marine skin, with the green beret, and on maps which aren't jungle, like Qingling(although I'm not 100% sure), they use a different cap badge. Although this may well have changed.

As I say - the Beret is not the commando beret or the Royal Marines cap badge, it's a rifles beret with a different cap badge.

I'm not sure scot, afaik there is just woodland and default (desert)

Really the Brits need the love that the USA has received in .9, I'm sure someone will get to it eventually.

I think the cap badge is of the Devonshire and Dorset regiment, Which are no longer known as the d&d's because they are apart of the Rifles. And 1 RIFLES are all commando trained and therefore have the right to wear the commando dagger flash.

Or at least that's what I thought?
