[US] A3Wasteland Taviana by TOP Arma

I love TOP ARMA and while I think it'd be great to have RHS or any other conversion addon to add more vehicles, uniforms, items/accessories, and, of course, weapons added to my beloved US #3 but I definitely understand that you guys want to keep it easily accessible while still giving us the capability of changing it up with JSRS 2/Dragonfyre and/or Blastcore but......

I see your Chernarus and Taviana servers that myself and a couple of others, who enjoyed TOP enough to donate, would love to join but just see no incentive, really, though I know that's subjective. The thing is, most people who've taken the time to download mods as large as AiA have other very large mods they'd like to play with. Now, I'm not saying that negates the fact that they may still rather play on Altis but you may also consider that there may be a crowd that doesn't play TOP Wasteland at all because of it.

Let me explain my thoughts:

I believe if you replaced (or simply added this alongside vanilla assets) the vanilla Blufor and Opfor factions with the U.S. and RUS from RHS, you'll provide a completely exciting and different experience. Sure, Sa Matra has RHS but so does Tactical Battlefield, some Overpoch servers, etc... Just the same, many mods use similar or copied mechanics and/or resources, there's no shame in that and that's already inherently part of the mission and the game industry in general but I digress... if RHS isn't an option, you guys could look to @mas and Mas Vehicles (NATO and Spetsnaz) or possibly even just a weapon pack(s) to test the waters before trying vehicles.

I understand the concept and how it could be assumed. Less to download = more players. That works great with Altis and people could just REALLY like Altis but my thought is that if someone has gone through the trouble to download as many gigs as AiA is, they're probably not looking for something resembling vanilla ARMA....or they're looking for something different, something fresh to them.

NOTE I know this is a tough choice to decide either way and I can't promise that it's not just people wanting a more easily accessible game, Taviana/Chernarus not being popular for this over other modes, the servers not picking up speed because of other causes or promotion, or even POSSIBLY MISSING TIMES WHEN THE SERVERS WERE POPULATED (in caps in-case I typed all of this just for someone to tell me they're usually full because they're not when I've looked and it's disappointing :( ).
