Antistasi Plus - Cam Lao Nam (PAVN Edition)

You know, I love Antistasi community edition and Socrates' excellent Antistasi Plus mission, but I'm dissatisfied with the factions and aesthetic immersion, particularly in historical scenarios.

Not satisfied with playing as the fascist (and anachronistic) KPNLF, I tweaked the scenario to allow the player to play as PAVN forces, complete with a shady Chinese arms dealer.

========================================================

This is an overhaul of Antistasi: Cam Lao Nam which allows the players to play as PAVN against a combined MACV/ARVN force in Reb vs. Gov & Inv mode. Essentially, the two factions will work together to hold the country, often responding together, and in force, to PAVN movements.

This is an early alpha which, like everything I upload, is going to be worked on over time, but it works, and it works well. Please report any errors you encounter or other things that bother you about the templates/design and I'll fix them when I can. I'll also try to keep the mission updated in line with the Antistasi Plus codebase.

Support is not provided on any of unsupported mods! Custom mission edits too, since i don't know what you have changed and how.

Where is the HQ tent?
HQ tent was removed, it's functionality was moved into Commander Menu, Environment tab.

I can't find the mission in Scenarios tab in single player menu, is there any way to play as single player?
Antistasi Plus will not appear in Scenarios menu, but you can still play as singe player by creating LAN server in Arma 3's multiplayer menu.

My dedicated server is not working with this mission at all, while listen one works perfectly fine. What's wrong?
Make sure that you're not using -autoInit startup parameter, removing it might resolve many dedicated server issues.
