If anybody is still doing anything with this mod, in answer to the questions-
- What's your history "specialization" ? (it's not necesary to have university knowledge about that period, with some amateur knowledge should be enough)
- Are you Specialized in some country's or International Organization's History? (if yes, which one?)
Feel free to bombard me with any questions relating to the political, cultural, economic, and military circumstances of Rhodesia (from about 1963-1980) and 1960-1990 South Africa. If your questions about Rhodesia are from the period of the Federation of Rhodesia and Nyasaland (1953-1963) then it will take one or two days for me to get you an answer.
Also, feel free to deluge me with questions regarding the Portuguese Colonial War (Angola- yes, Mozambique- yes, Portuguese Guinea- not so much so), in regards to military deployments, rebel movements, important events/people, etc.
Finally you're welcome to hit me with questions about the First Indochina War and the Algerian War.
If you want to ask me how I would incorporate the specifics/details of such historical events into scripted events, I'll gladly give some ideas/suggestions in that regard as well.
So basically anything dealing with-
South Africa and Rhodesia (any questions), Portugal (questions related to the military campaigns in the African colonies), and France (questions related to the war in Indochina and the war in Algeria).
If you have Warsaw Pact questions, Iran-Iraq war questions, or Arab-Israeli war questions (any of the Arab-Israeli wars), give me two days to find the answer in one of the books I have around here, and you'll have an answer.
If it makes any difference I have lots of pictures of the colonial wars in Africa. Mainly the stuff in Rhodesia, Angola, and Namibia. If those would be useful for game images or something, let me know and I'll try to scan and upload stuff.
