ANZAC: Silly question of the day...

[Rrralphster]

I'm looking forward to your mod as is.
But is there a slight possibility we might see ANZAC's as an update some time?
Can't imagine it would be before you guys finish your original plan first ofcourse.

Anything is possible... even the disappearingly improbable.

Would be nice with an update sometime after release, adding some maps with ANZAC troops. Oh, and by saying some maps I mean 1-2 cuz' I'm pretty sure it takes alot longer to make a map for RO2 then RO1.
Anyway, cheers!

Hmmm didn't realize anyone knew of ANZAC exept Aussies and NZers.
I know we fought in a few battles, the biggest one was we hijacked the Japan air strip and use it for our own

ANZAC's are just like Gurkha's, underrated and forgotten.

Can we get Owen guns?

We actually fought in some of the longest and most harshest campaigns in the entire war. We also inflicted the first land defeat on the Japanese land forces in WW2 at Milne Bay. Not the Americans, British or Chinese.... it was us.
I have no idea what 'Airstrip' your talking about, Kokoda perhaps? Their was a lot of battles fought for control of Airstrips in the Pacific, entire campaigns revolved around the capture of certain airstrips.
Look up, the battle for Buna and Gona, this battle fought by Aussies along
side ze' Yanks was the worst fought by either Army at that time. This was before Peleliu and further Island hoping campaigns. I have no expectations on ANZAC forces being included in Rising Storm. Compared to the Yanks our role was in their eyes not as important, even though we were fighting for our homes right on our door step.

I've heard of many various tribes in Burma and several islands in combat and helping the Allied soldiers fighting there. Is that what you guys are talking about? Speaking of Zealanders and Aussies, yes. Commonwealth FTW.

Wouldn't mind playing as the Australian 7th Division the Division my great grandfather served in

I think it's unlikely, the ANZACs didn't really fight enough battles for an already stretched team to consider making new models, weapons and voice recordings, it would be cool though.

And yet everyone always seem to overlook the British Indian Army in Burma (Stalingrad of the East) not to mention the fact that 14th Army delivered the largest land defeat to Japanese forces at Imphal.

A real infantryman's war... the British could not rely on heavy fire support like their American colleagues and were woefully ill equipped. Indeed, the Burma Campaign saw the rise of one of the most forward thinking and imaginative commanders of the entire war in the form of Bill Slim.

Someone, somewhere should make a mod or game featuring that FORGOTTEN Army.
