That's what cover is for, unless you are suggesting camouflage stops bullets midair.


i never said camo can stop bullets in midair, i meant to say the enemy cant shoot at you if they cant see you.

Then you can certainly hide in a trench in a ballroom dress as well as a ghillie suit. Otherwise you enemy can see you if you can see them, it's a matter of squinting.

That and muzzle flashes help.


TBQH the entire point of camouflage is to make your enemy squint and take a second to realise what he is looking at, because then you have another moment to see this giant mass of blue and pink wandering towards your general direction, see his outline while he's squinting, aim, and fire your rifle at him before he can do the same. It's to break up the outline of your body, not to keep you invisible to the enemy; and it's an important component to gaining the advantage over an enemy.

And suppressors on rifles stop muzzle flashes for the most part.

Cool.

Have them fight in a forest, or a ruined city, or something where there's pointy things on the ground like sticks and rocks.

You'll win.

Introducing the combat uniform presets of the Hellestine Marine Force.

Camouflages are provided in three template patterns: desert, woodland, and arctic. The pattern used is the MARPAT environmental scheme and is included in tempra-light shadings of green, white, and brown.

The GH-2 is the newest line of combat are administered for both eye and visionary purposes. The orange hue of the lens, in contrast with the traditional clear and transparent plastic goggles, provides an interface for temperature readings, which help to assist the soldier in identifying unknown civilians or enemy combatants. These GH-2 is normally standard for orange contrast, but is also available in clear and blue contrast as well, which is available for switching in the side panel of the lens of the goggle compartment.

An NIR infrared SMT device is located on the top left corner pocket of the IOTV military jacket. The military jacket is outfitted with Dragon Skin ballistic vest, able to withstand most short-mid-range fire for a sustained amount of time.

I just made a new version of my IFV, one that is designed for the export market. It has its entire power pack and what not replaced with a new hybrid 552 Horsepower engine and a 4x4 wheel system. In addition to a fancy new 30mm dual fed auto cannon. The auto-cannon's housing also contains a literal crap-ton of sensor equipment so you can stop the baddies before they spot you. The Mercenario IFV, as it is known, has a new experimental semi-urban camouflage as apposed to the semi-temperate used as standard. In addition the export version's standard appliqué armor is mainly composed of NxRA as apossed to the Spartan's Composite plating.

That must at least be 16 feet high. Normal IFV's stand at a meager 8-10 ft., but that one is a little too big to be considered as an IFV. Wheels might be too small and compact to be able to support the overfed equipment on the turret gun placement. Diesel fuel is your friend. Hybrids are slower in comparison to fossil fuel energy solutions.

Scratch that. I was actually referring to the bottom IFV, but I noticed the treads on it so I indicated to myself that it is tread-based.

Wouldn't having a hybrid engine be impractical if you're using treads?

The write up only applies to the blue export version, the green one is the standard on of the Albrantean Army, admittedly I uploaded the command version rather than the base one, that explains the sat dish and antenna... The green one has tracks, a sturdy Kestrel 572Hp diesel engine, 40mm CTA auto-cannon and Dorchester Appliqué armor.

EDIT: Here is a size comparison
Image
Two Albrantean soldiers (Average Albrantean height being 6 Foot 3) It works out about 10 Foot, the same as the RL Warrior IFV its based on.

Some pretty interesting concepts, although putting a suppressor on the CQB guys gun negates the bonus of its shortened length.

The camouflage on the uniforms are pretty unique and creative. Marine units?

Also, are you able to provide me with a cutout of that weapon that your soldiers are wielding? I'm testing out new a new circulation of weaponry for my deployable units to use during combat.

Ever so slightly modified versions on Cazelia's weapons sheet
I don't have the old version but you can feel free to chop the top half of a soldier's and paste it onto the ones there.
The camo is for Urban/Semi Urban operations, its jointly inspired by some RL blue urban camos and the Belgium camo from Endwar. The yellow catches the enemies eyes and the blues make my guys hard to distinguish, hopefully leading to confusion. Although I might adopt it for the Marines, thanks for the suggestion :)
