I think a 1930's era mod would be pretty neat. With the classic to the point of being corny gangsters having car chases and such. Vietnam cool but thank fully ones already in the works.
And for those of you wanting a western era mod, it's already in the works

I agree with the Soviet-Afghan war mod idea. After I first got RO2 and thought about what RO3 would be like if there was an RO3 (I don't think so), the first thing that hit me was the Soviet-Afghan war. It's never been made into a video game before (aside from two incredibly obscure Russian games based on the film 9th Company).
Being a Soviet history nut, it is I think the most interesting period of the USSR aside from WWII. Most of the Mujahideen fighters used Soviet weapons (and Soviet-based ones) from earlier eras as well (like SKS' and Mosin Nagants) so it will be a real Soviet equipment fest, which can be good thing or bad thing depending on how you like your guns.
Also, I am a fan of the S.T.A.L.K.E.R. series. Again, being a Soviet nut, realism fanboy as well as being a person who plays games for immersion, which Stalker is full of, it would be a perfect marriage. The Stalker atmosphere, immersion and RPG elements with ROOST/RO2 realism-based game mechanics and weapons designed accurately after their real-world counterparts would be a dream come true. All that with a weapon jamming mod Far Cry 2 style would be pure jizz worthy. Except that instead of jerking the bolt about and whacking the gun like a senseless retard, have the player animations strip and clean the weapon instead.

The Soviet-Afghan would be nice, but I'd prefer a US-Afgan War mod. Mainly because there are larger differences between the two teams equipment and tactics.
Since the Continuation War has already been mentioned, there are two others I'd like to see - both featuring Fallschirmjaeger:
- Operation Weseruebung (Norway): Axis against Norway, Denmark, expeditionary forces from England and France, and Polish contingents
- Operation Merkur - Tommies/Greeks vs. Italians/Germans

what do you guys think about a mod focusing exclusively on the the Second Battle of Fallujah?
The maps would essentially be small (or large?) sections of the city, including places like the notorious Jolan District, Industrial District, Mayor's Complex, South Fallujah, Jeghaifi Neighborhood etc.
My brother fought in the battle, Lima Company 3rd battalion/1st Marine Regiment , so he could possibly provide insider information on it.
The whole battle was rather unique as the Marines had to improvise a lot when fighting with rather proficient and experience combatants (most of them being foreign fighters from as far as Chechnya). Perhaps incorporate things like how the marines would blow holes through the walls using C4 to go from building to building.
Would be pretty cool in my opinion, especially if you include combined arms maps like with the LAV's.
It would be asymmetrical, but the insurgents would have the advantage of being the defender, as well as having access to a variety of passages such as rat holes. Maybe to further stress unfamiliarity on the part of the Americans, you can remove the minimap from the Marines, and only give it to the insurgents.
What do you guys think? Picture below WARNING BIG PICTURES
Spoiler!
Fallujah city is available in ArmA 2: CO game, entire city and outskirts as single map (10 x 10 km). I played couple multiplayer campaigns on this map and were awesome. Convoys, fast rope insertion (on streets or roofs), pure fun.
That map is good... but an RO2 type game (with more realism) in this setting would be fun. It would be nice to see Insurgency done the proper way, but I doubt that will ever happen.

I'm a programmer (and mapper, but not that good compared to others) and i'd be willing to program, i would need mappers and people to work on textures/skins.
I was honestly considering getting this mod off the ground, but with only 900 players active at peak (and dropping), i'm not too sure if RO2 is really worth the time and effort to mod; especially since im going to have to really manage my work and school.
Hopefully someone else will pick up and i can contribute, but i lack the motivation to actually LEAD the project at this time.

I'd like to see that too. very interesting and low tech. I found this anarchist punk band that shows some footage of it Sin Dios - 1936 - YouTube
American west mod. Revolvers and lever actions and the occasional shotgun shooting it out across dusty streets and in shady honkytonks. The cover system that TWI has implemented would work phenomenally for this.
Gametype ideas other than straight team deathmatch and last man standing elude me, but really...that's all you need.

I would LOVE to see a mod about the Battle of Wizna.
