The United States Government passes a bill prohibiting Jobs and Factories to be shipped to foreign countries, The Bill threatens the economy of an emergent
China and it's allies. The Chinese Government threatens to take action if the Americans do not reverse course. Two weeks later, the Chinese military
commences a full scale invasion of Western America and Canada.
Meanwhile in Europe, The Russian led Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS) experiences an economic boom of epic proportions. After it became
the world's largest supplier of Oil and Natural gas due to a multi-sided war in the Middle East, the CIS spends billions on the largest military buildup since
the Cold War, threatening the newly established Continental European Coalition (CEC). Tensions rise, and the two European superpowers prepare for war. A week
before the Chinese invasion of North America, the CIS launches a surprise attack on the eastern territories of Europe. Over 70 years of military buildup in
Europe is finally unleashed.

There hasn't been a lot of work latley. A few random props and vehicles were worked on or finished, but nothing compared to the progress before, the new props can be seen in the Firebase Screenshots.
This week we are starting up again, focusing on the CIS faction almost exclusivley,
Currentley the plan is to do the body armor variants, which will have at least 4 types. And then move on to their weapons. The CIS faction does not use as wide of a variety of weapons as the CEC, The AK-74M is widespread, because of this, the AK-74M will have multiple Variants, Some other weapons in other factions will be doing the same. These variants are purely visual. One AK74 may be a stock weapon with no attachments or accessories, and another may be outfitted with a red dot optic. etc, with the exception of the GP30 variant, they will all have identical statistics.
That's all for now. We're eager to get going again so keep an eye out.

Great work guys, glad to see a different approach rather than the same old RU vs US. Keep up the spectacular work guys :)

I will never understand why people put their name at the bottom when it shows their name :\..
It's just a signature.
SL is primarily MP, so people can pit whichever factions they choose against each other, In the "Story", America and Russia don't fight. But I get what you are saying.
Yeah I like that anymore. (as you do)
I am glad that the fashion continue to do. And it is very successful especially happy for the APC. When you are ready mode (well, at least alpha) will place the information on Russian sites.
Sorry for bad English.
this wasnt planned, but we added another assault rifle to the Europeans, G36A *The regular full sized rifle variant*
It will be one of the standard issue rifles of the CEC, It will be the all around weapon, while the other two will have different damage, range and ROF Capabilities.
Looking good guys...keep it up!
Well, if you're such a great author then please help us re-write the story :)
Guys, again It's not a huge issue right now. I'll redo the "backstory" eventually but the core will remain the same, Russia/Allies invade Europe, China attacks America, and Russia/China engage in some border skirmishes
