Rodion has posted a FAQ on The Temporary Tango v1.30 on his website. Here's one of the questions:
Q. Will there be other TTT Missions based on original RS missions?
A. Tough question. Right now, I just want to rest a bit. ;) I also want to plan carefully for the conversion of TTT for RS:Urban Operations. So my answer is, maybe.

NEWS FOR WEDNESAY 22nd MARCH
Urban Ops is gold again? Rogue_Gun 8:21pm (UK time)
Well, Urban Operations is OFFICIALLY gold. But it seems that Red Storm has pulled a little stunt on us. They haven't updated their site. And then dated the news 3.13.00 (last week monday), and says "Urban Ops has gone Gold! Look for it in stores around the world around April 14!". So with that cleared up we can now start the long waiting process for UO.

NEWS FOR THURSDAY 16th MARCH
Utils Rogue_Gun 8:59pm (UK time)
Vandamme, from the SDS clan, has created two really great Rogue Spaer utilities.
His Arm Patch Kit allows you to easily install arm patches into Rogue Spear. You can also click on an arm patch that you downloaded in a directory tree and preview it right in the program (and click on it to shoot it :). This program is a definite must for an arm patch crazy person.
The other program Vandamme created is the Character Creator. This program has it all. Every option can be edited. It also has a really neat screen where you can see all the in-game textures that you're going to use, and what they should look like so you can easily get the texture just right! Download the Character Creator here. And after you get the Character Creator, be sure to get the Character Installer as well so you can properly install the character created by the Character Creator.
And be sure to visit the SDS homepage for more information and to download both of these utlities.

No prox. mines in UO Rogue_Gun 9:06pm (UK time)
The Rogue Spear Retreat pointed out this important detail from Joe Sauder's designer log (updated March 2nd):
One important decision that we've had to make, after doing this kind of testing, is to remove proximity mines from the game. I'm sad to see them go (I spent many a late night working on them), but at the same time, I'm kind of glad to see them go. Camping is always a concern in multiplayer games, because it can grind down the flow of gameplay to a halt. But, at least if you're camping with a sniper rifle or something, you still have to pay attention to what is happening around you. With prox mines, on the other hand, you could simply put down a few of them, and go hide in a corner somewhere. If you killed someone with your mine, you'd probably never know it, and it sure wouldn't have been due to any skill on your part! Also, the person who got killed was typically left with a rather frustrated feeling, since they were killed by this automatic device, rather than by another player. So there you have it, prox mines are history.
NEWS FOR THURSDAY 9th MARCH
Urban Ops has gone gold Rogue_Gun 7:14pm (UK time)

NEWS FOR WEDNESDAY 8th MARCH
Rainbow Six: Covert Ops Rogue_Gun 8:36pm (UK time)
SimHQ has said that Red Storm will publish Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six: Covert Operations Essentials (Covert Ops):
Covert Ops is an extension of the popular Rainbow Six franchise, in which players will not only get to play new and exciting levels, but will also get an insider's look at the world of covert operations. Bridging the gap between fiction and real-world special operations, Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six: Covert Operations Essentials is an exciting overview covering the subject of counter-terrorism from 1970 until the present. Covert Ops will contain video interviews with top experts in the field, as well as photos and video footage of weapons and equipment, along with a description of situations where they are typically used. A special "Making of Rainbow Six and Rogue Spear" section is an added bonus. Players will also be able to test their skills and knowledge through interactive "Officer Candidate School" testing, as well as by playing the specially created game levels.

Nato 3 Rogue_Gun 7:36pm (UK time)
Word from the guys at ARMM
"Finally! The whole mod is very close to completion but the multiplayer needs testing big time. Beta testers will be sent all the information they need to get the mod and kick butt. It is a closed beta, please don't ask to be on the beta list.
So how close is it to ready? Well that depends on how much the beta testers find wrong. "Soon" is about as accurate as I can get. Basically all the pieces are in, it's just a matter of making sure it all works.
Some stats:
- 67 Primaries,
- 25 secondaries,
- 28 new models,
- 116 new sounds,
- 108 new text files,
- 198 new bitmaps,
- 60 new textures,
- 420 new ammo files,
- 15 new reticles,
- New blood,
- New smoke grenades,
- Tango weps in single and multiplayer,
- grenade launchers in single player,
- a knife (both),
- a minigun (single), and more."

R6 3? Rogue_Gun 3:52pm (UK time)
CR6 from the Rogue Spear Retreat very cunningly picked up a little clue on a Rainbow Six 3:
Chris Kemple, 2D artist on UO, said this in his designer log: "I've had a big pile of fun, and should plans remain constant, I'll be rolling over to the next title in the "Rainbow" and Rogue Spear" lineage very soon, for more wacky spec-ops misadventures."
