Gentlemen, our Mafia Team is excited to release Iran 128 for BMS version 4.37U3.1. Big thanks for T-Bone who originally built the terrain for Falcon SP4. I want to give Demer928 a huge shoutout. When Iran lay dormant for many years, he took it upon himself to make Iran into a winnable campaign theatre. Unfortunately, his final work was lost due to a hard drive failure. But, after a longer phone conversation with him, I was able to recreate his work. I want to give Eddropper a huge thank you. These theatres are no way my own work alone: they are a huge collaboration of authors, some unknown who have freely provided material. It is Ed, who does the magic and incorporates this work in the theatre so that I have the amazing base to make my campaigns shine. Finally, I want to give a tip of my hat to CCC, Mike Rivers, Thoarek, and many other unknown contributors to the theatre. I big thanks to Red Dog, who orginally created the UI maps for Iran.

Notes:
Iran is a 128 Segment theatre. That makes if four times as large a Korea. Unlike Korea, it is mostly desert and there is little water in the map. Thus, tankers are far apart and missions are long. Take lots of fuel. You will need it. Also, the flat terrain means there is little cover from SAM and AAA. Fly high and jink a lot. Flying close to the deck will lead to instant death.
At the moment, there is only one working campaign. Though there are names for additional campaigns, they will be built by me at a later date. Finally, the ultimate goal for Blue forces is to capture Tehran. That is you only and final goal. Your campaign, under the best of times, will last about five days. Longer if things don’t go well. Conserve resources and avoid jettisoning stores. This theatre is a war of attrition and Iran can and will outlast the Blue Team. As of today, there is little to no information on the status of Iran’s F-14s. Thus I equipped the Iranian Air Force with the same number of aircraft that were originally delivered. I also gave them modern loadouts for 1977. For Blue Pilots, that means the IAF will give you a tough fight. Expect losses in the. I recommend mostly BARCAP flights on day one and try to eliminate the F-14s.
Bugs:
The TACREF has issues. Ed will send me a fix at a later day. The patch file for squadrons is a mess. It will be fixed at a later day as well. Finally, for those wondering, the wonderful music is actually a Bollywood Song that I grabbed and Ed did a great job converting to Falcon BMS format. It is an old Love Song from the 1970s, so don’t worry there is no ill words there.
