Key Features
Weferlingen Terrain
Located in the northern plains of Germany, Weferlingen offers the largest Arma terrain released so far: 419 square kilometers of usable area. It's modeled after a real-world location in 1983, and uses entirely new assets – providing you with a unique experience that gives Arma 3 an entirely fresh look and feel. Explore nearly 50 fully destructible settlements in both West and East Germany, prepare your ambushes from scattered wooded areas, or have tanks battle each other at great distances on farmland – with each presenting its own major challenges.

The Weferlingen terrain is also available in a special winter variant. After all, the Cold War should stay cold. Each of the available multiplayer scenarios can be played on this version of the terrain as well.

In addition, be sure to check out the terrain’s largest dominating feature: the inner German border – a part of the famous Iron Curtain that was faithfully recreated using formerly classified documents. As a result, the Weferlingen terrain lets you take Arma 3 and turn it into a digital museum.

Bundesgrenzschutz Field Suit
Police Officer Uniform
Police Patrol Uniform
Firefighter and Postman Suit
Standard Issue Compass

East Germany

The uniforms come with all of the helmets, hats, vests, and backpacks that are needed to equip the faction's soldiers for all situations. To make the experience of Cold War Germany even more immersive, the DLC also includes 8 voices for the new German radio protocol.

10-Mission Singleplayer Campaign “State Scarlet”
Witness a fierce battle over the inner German border from two different perspectives: Pvt. Klemmer, a draftee in West German military, and Sgt. Brandt, the leader of his Leopard 1 tank platoon. Developed by people with real-world military experience, "State Scarlet” is designed to quench your thirst for Cold War military action with authentic combat operations, which sometimes overlap to show how the battle develops. This singleplayer campaign is fully voiced in German (with optional English subtitles).

17 Multiplayer Scenarios
To ignite the Cold War right away, you and your friends can choose from 13 co-operative scenarios and 4 adversarial game modes. This includes a not-so-classic deathmatch mode called “Fashion Police”, in which teams can quickly change based on the clothing you wear.

It's optional DLC, do we need to inform our regular public players?

We certainly need to make sure all regular players will get it but I'm getting excited about this DLC, plus it will bring another terrain for the normal factions..

I did check tonight, I have 168Gb free on my SSD - so happy days...

I wouldn't stress about getting a mission ready for next week as will guarantee only about 3 of us (the ones who read the forums) will have it downloaded, so we wont be able to play it...

Spread the word as much as possible first as 90% of players will need it before we should consider playing with it.

Hell, you could have been playing many a game with cold war and current weapons/vehicles just by playing using Mods which is essentially all this DLC is as it's just a mod turned paid for content.

I wish I was but the devs for this DLC are long time modders for ArmA and this was originally going to be released as a mod until the creator option came out.

At which point they closed information on it and moved it to paid for content.

It was first announced way back in 2017 https://armaworld.de/index.php?thread/3 ... ilization/ with a lot of people waiting for it to use alongside CUP.

So what that means, is we would have still had to pay for it eventually
