Description
Brigadas de Liberación Nacional for Antistasi Ultimate

Want me to spend my time creating this content instead of forcing myself to get a second job so I can survive a real life Latin American economic crisis? Well, you can always Buy Me a coffe[buymeacoffee.com] :)

Brigadas de Liberación Nacional(BLN) is a Rebel guerrilla for Antistasi Ultimate loosely inspired on diverse Latin American armed movements, without aiming to resemble none of them specifically.

Its initial loadout is strictly limited to civil basic hunting weapons and assets based in CUP and female fighters are included using Maxjoiner's Max Women Soldiers.

This mod aims to fullfill three goals at once:
- Starting Antistasi campaign with no military gear at all, as a civilian-in-arms movement who has to scavenge for the very basic until they can give any real hit into the regime.
- Including female fighters into the rebel faction, as it happened in some real life irregular armed movements, specially in Latin-America.
- Having a latin-american looking rebel faction to deploy in maps like Colombia or Lingor.

Initial arsenal content:
- unlocked Taurus-Tracker Model 455 revolvers
- unlocked CZ 584 one-shot rifle/shotguns
- unlocked sawed two barrel shotguns from Apex DLC (if available)
- 10 Remington 700 bolt action rifles (if you set number to unlock items to 10, they will get unlocked at the first resource check)
- 2 CZ 550 scoped hunting rifles.

Use wisely the hunting rifles and start your campaign from way below until you set your people free from all opression.

You will also get A Nikon DSLR camera if you use Hate's digital camera addon (find it on binoculars tab)

This extender mod includes the base BLN guerrilla, a civilian faction, and versions of BLN faction with standard/western backed/eastern backed/slackers initial loadouts, in case you want a faster and easier first stage in the Antistasi campaign.

Upcoming updates and projects
I'm presently developing my narcos factions extenders, including a new experimental modular mod compatibility system and limited random assignment for some items. After it, a revamp of my factions and repack in a single Latin american scenario extender is planned. The BLN will then for sure include a really basic version with an only shotguns start. Some assets from The Free world Armory, Charlieco cars and other mods are going to be optional features.

"Yes I know but" issues
- Due to Antistasi (and possiby Arma 3) mechanics, there seems to be no way to make some heads spawn in determined bodies. So yes, you will frequently see female bodies with male heads and viceversa. But, due to Max Joiner's models, that is eficiently dissembled by the vests they have in their initial loadout, and by almost any ballistic vest you can scavenge.
- The same as prior point happens with names and voiceivers, Arma 3 unit names are male. I must say was lucky to find spanish names due to Sahrani addons, and I could find a US English female voice on cup assets. BTW, it would be great to have spanish radio voices.
- Some of the female bodies use US/CSAT insignias, hey are carved into the base model. I would love to have more guerrilla-looking female models, but, by now, MaxJoiner ones are the best suited ones.

- BLN hasn't been tested out of ACE, but it has no mandatory ACE assets, so you should be able to run it vanilla.

More faction extenders are up to come! Feel free to make suggestions about it

Special thanks to Silence and Stutpip for developing A3U, A3UE, and helping this complete noob getting to develop and release his own mods.
Thanks to Official Antistasi Community, Socrates, and Barbolani for developing the Antistasi series!

And very special thanks to my beloved Belén, who supports me on doing this stuff and "just maybe" might have something to do with the name choice for our rebel guerrillas.

//Little disclaimer// = This faction doesn't mean by any way to inspire into violence. It is set to be used as a character on distopic ficticious war scenaries. As the creator of it, I state my total disagreement with any way of political violence from any side or sector, and my support for pacific and democratic ways of resolving communitary and social issues.

Last update should add several uniforms and outfits to the arsenal. Take in account that the civilian faction determines which vestments can go undercover, meaning that only clothing used by in-game civilians will be able to be set undercover. By default, these should be the last ones in the arsenal list.

Thanks for the feedback! You're right, uniforms are meant to be limited for ai use, but that should not limit the ones available for players. I'm going to check what's causing the issue

Great mod!
Something about the altered starting equipment disables the other cosmetic uniforms in the Antistasi arsenal. They still work normally if I add them by adding a crate with Zeus.
