FS25 Zone Rouge V1.0
The Iron Harvest focuses on the very real danger of unexploded ordnance during farming.
History
Across all fronts in WWI, somewhere around 1.5 billion artillery shells were fired. Up to a quarter of those shells failed to explode, leaving somewhere in the region of 300 million unexploded rounds buried in parts of Germany, Russia, Belgium and France. In the latter, the areas affected most severely are known as ‘Zone Rouge’, while the yearly discovery of these rounds is called ‘The Iron Harvest’. WWII added millions of tons of aerial bombs across Europe and the Pacific, and they still create problems to this day.
Since 1919, accidental detonations in France and Belgium have killed over 1000 civilian and ordnance collectors.
Lest We Forget.
Features
- Farming Simulator 2025 gains the risk of encountering unexploded ordnance through Zone Rouge.
- With the mod enabled, cultivating or plowing a field can uncover something. Meadows and newly plowed ground are more likely to contain ordnance than recently sown or planted fields.
- Finding an object means investigating it and choosing what to do. If you know what to look for, some devices can be recognised as duds.
- After so long in mud and dirt, most devices are probably unlikely to explode, but the risk never disappears. Handle them gently, since large knocks and impacts greatly raise the chances of a detonation.
- Lighter devices may be moved carefully by hand to a roadside collection point, or carried in a tractor or telehandler bucket.
- Armored buckets available in the store can reduce damage to your equipment when smaller devices explode.
- For anything really big, the authorities can be called from the very beginning. They will come out and dispose of it, although this might take several hours, leaving you unable to work that field during that time.
- If you want total peace of mind, purchase the Rebo RACK armored tractor from REBO Landmaschinen. This heavily modified John Deere 6R can withstand a blast from almost anything without taking major damage.
