Tidewater PMC

Summary

A neutral modern PMC faction for Game Master: eight distinct characters, NATO-style weapons, three groups, two unarmed transports and a custom Tidewater flag.

Description

Tidewater is a fictional modern private military company with a neutral starting allegiance, civilian tactical clothing and NATO-style weapons. Built for Game Master scenarios.

Included

- Eight characters: Contractor, Team Leader, Machine Gunner, Medic, Driver, Marksman, Officer and Security.
- M4 carbines, M249 machine gun, scoped M110 marksman rifle and an MP7-equipped security guard without a plate carrier.
- Three groups: Security Pair, Fire Team and an officer-led Security Detail with a marksman.
- Two unarmed transports: covered M998 Humvee and grey UAZ passenger van.
- Custom Tidewater flag, placeable flagpole, faction icon and character/group preview pictures.
- Faction supply catalog and friendly starting relations with the stock factions.

Required mods

M4 Block II and URG-I; M110 DMR; GRS PMC; GRS Vests N Rigs; WCS Weapons, plus their dependencies. Required content is referenced from those addons; it is not bundled into Tidewater.

Use and compatibility

Enable Tidewater and its required mods, then choose Tidewater in Game Master's entity browser. Scenarios with custom faction lists may need to register the faction separately.

Tidewater modifies the standard Game Master faction manager and entity-browser faction filters. Other mods replacing the same resources may conflict. Conflict gameplay integration is not included.

Initial release

Characters, inventory, groups, transports, preview images and flagpole were checked in Arma Reforger Workbench 1.8.0.13. Multiplayer and console-platform packaging have not yet been verified. The installed GRS, M110 and WCS dependencies emit some resource warnings; Tidewater's tested loadouts spawn correctly.

Credits to the creators of the required addons and Bohemia Interactive for the referenced content. Tidewater flag artwork was generated with OpenAI's built-in image tool.
