Wow, your map is just beatiful. Maybe you should consider about cooperation with Modern Day Scenario team? They would probably need experienced map designer for Central Asia(especially Afghanistan and Pakistan). This region plays very important role in modern day conflicts.
 
What is the point of the Afghan Wars scenario. What would that be?

1979: scenario begins. Event: USSR annex Afghanistan.
1979-1989: nothing.
1989: event, USSR withdraws from Afghanistan
Scenario ends.

:rofl:

Afghan Wars: 1988-2003
Soviet war in Afghanistan (1979–1989) – Soviet's Vietnam
Afghan Civil War (1989–1992) – Government collapse
Afghan Civil War (1992–1996) – Anarchy
Afghan Civil War (1996–2001) – Taliban period
War in Afghanistan (2001–present) – ISAF/NATO involvement

Great full-function scenario of the wars in Afghanistan 1988 - 2003 with other possible outcomes to certain events. Also included is the Vietnam War 6 scenario and an ahistorical Indian War involving India, Burma, North Vietnam, Thailand, Afghanistan and Pakastan.

Start out in 1988 and proceed though the Soviet withdrawl from Afghanistan, PDPA collapse, tribal warloards anarchy, Taliban period events and September 11th attacks to past the 2003 USA invation of Iraq. Includes all 3 Iraq wars, conflicts in Kashmir, Syria and Yemen.

Playable countries: Afghanistan, USSR, PDPA, USA, UK, Saudi Arabia, Pashtun mujahiddin, Pakistan, Iraq, Iran, Hezbe, Jamiet and Al Qaeda. UN troops are represented.

Also included are Azerbaijan, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Georgia, Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan, Tajikistan, China, India, Turkey, Syria, Jordan, Yemen, Kawait, Kashmir and Sudan.

The PDPA (Peoples Democaratic Party of Afghanistan) later becomes the Northern Alliance and the Pashtun mujahiddin later becomes the Taliban in 1994. This way, you can play the whole scenario as one of these countries.

26 New Units:
Cold-war and post cold-war units including infantry, marine, mountain, HQ, militia, garrison, tanks, aircraft, gunships, subs, drones, missiles, advanced transports and sea mines.

Also 20 units included from the Vietnam Sceanario: Green Beret, AH-1 Cobra, Advanced Supersonic Fighter, Nuclear Sub, M41 Light-Tank, Titan ICBM, ABM, Paladin, Missile Launcher, Attack Helicopters, Advanced Air Cavalry. Added standing sprites for Afghanistan and Vietnam.

Technologies: stealth, night vision, satellites and lazer.
Brigades: modern artillery, elite engineers, M42 Duster, M113, rocket launcher, and land mines.
Major map files change: a total of 60 textured new territories added. The Caspian Sea is now navagatable with ports in Iran and the Soviet Union.

There are some changes or additions to some config, db, minister, leader and tech files. New graphics were added for new units, ministers, leaders and events. A few counters, flags and shields were modified. A VN sprite pack is available. New AI files for all countries involved were added. Mountain and jungle warfare is enhanced. Best played with agressive AI settings.

Made vanilla friendly for Armageddon v1.1 but will work for all with the correct patch.

Should be available soon...

But please do not forget that the Taliban didn't show up until 1994.
So a mujahedeen faction would be necessary to represent the fighter against the Soviets.

Yes, PDPA later becomes Northern Alliance and Pashtun mujahiddin later becomes Taliban in 1994, so you can play the whole scenario as one of these countries.

Can't hurry perfection. Afghan Wars is turning out to be one heck of a mod, maybe one of the best mods ever. Should be in a week or so!

Great! :)
My exam is on Friday, so I'll have plenty of time to write an AAR and to play it extensively.

EDIT: OMG!
I was just thinking ... "Why not looking at the Afgahnistan War ... maybye it has been released".
AND IT HAS BEEN!!!

Downloading it right now!

EDIT: Played as Pashtuns. The PDPA entered Kandahar and the game crashed.

frvp,
May I use some of your material for my mod? I will NOT be interested in reproducing the mod but would like to use some material in the files (ministers, etc). I'll credit you as the source.
Thanks,

The Vietnam/Afghanistan map was updated to fix minor move problems in southwest Africa and port supply from the Caspian Sea. Also changed Antwerp to a port accessed from new sea section: Scheldt Estuary.

Added Volga–Don Canal project for access to Caspian Sea from Black Sea although it more resembles the Eurasia Canal along a more southerly route in the Kuma–Manych Depression. Caspian Sea now is 2 sections: the North Caspian and South Caspian.
VNMAP.zip update
