The island is 40.91km x 40.91km and is intended to be a mixed but quite arid African environment. The plan calls for a lot of smaller villages and key choke points. Some varied environments, and eventually euro, African and afghan styles of buildings to give the greatest possibility of play.
The initial intention was to create something to allow us to test things in a large space without limits of terrain. But as we have progressed other possibilities have presented themselves. The first release will most likely just be a very basic space with the new buildings as we did with "RKSL Test Island 1" for OFP, but as we get more time Boa Verde should provide an interesting and varied battlefield!
Objective:
Realistic Terrain
Realistic ranges, i.e. wide realistic valleys
Better environment for aircraft
Better environment for SAM systems. IE more realistic engagement ranges
“Make it once use it often” – the island is so varied it should provide far more scope than Sahrani does.
Realistic MP Combined forces playground
