its all set up……i guess it was good enough for them to go and make the map on Abattlemap like they said. i’d like to give it a try.  but i think we need one more player to be america

this goes into the rules for america and how they are influenced.

and the bolsheviks should also be played by the american player or another player, it gets pretty complicated.

there is a chart listing somewhere…i’ll find it after my league move and a sandwich.

I played a 10 day free trial and stopped after 5 … it’s quite repeditive and not very interesting for me at least

I’m not sure if ive already made a topic about this game.  This is like one of the most anticipated game mods out there right now.  Forgotten Hope 2 is going to be like Battlefield 1942……massive WWII combat, but using the Battlefield 2 game engine.  Its also going to be a very accurate WWII game, unlike BF1942.  The first Forgotten Hope, which used the BF1942 engine, was made exactly like that.  Many hardcore WWII buffs were unhappy that many guns and vehicles were left out of BF1942.  So a group of modders got together and decided to make a game that was accurate, thus Forgotten Hope was born.  Now they are at it making Forgotten Hope 2, which will be like the first FH but with better graphics and all the new stuff that has been implemented in BF2.

At current time they are only making the North Africa campaign, so people can start playing it already.  However, they will be making other theaters of war and releasing them one by one for people to play.  A mod of this epicness is going to take awhile.  Just to allow you to grasp how epic it is…the install for the first FH was about 1.8 GB on the PC (the complete game with all theater’s of war).  BF1942 was only a 1 gig install.  So imagine this.  When its all done though, the wait will definitely be worth it.  I just cant wait for the Eastern Front.  :lol:

Heres the link for the FH2 mod… http://forgottenhope.filefront.com/main.php?lang=english
There are some videos of dogfighting.

And some screens.  Sorry for all the links.  The attachments only allow pictures that are 250 kb and lower.  These pictures are too awesome to degrade the quality.

Edit-BTW, im not a developer for the game, as the avatar I have might mistakenly indicate.  I simply liked that avatar and stole it for myself.  Teddy Bears with rifles kick ass.  :-P

Has anyone herd of or play this combat, action filled, missles n’ mines racing game?  :evil:

Thanks dude.  I will definitely be looking those up, although I don’t know about right now, being at work and all…

I found this games, and it looks perty interesting, does anyone have it?

why does it take 1 division of marines to take out 1 division of the enemy, when it takes 1 platoon of elite navy seals to take out 1 divsion of the enemy?

That was funny, but I thought you were going to take it in a different direction.

Something about a dance off with Charlie, or how his dance moves made him able to dodge bullets.

that would of been funny. matrix style.

Hiho,

This is one of the finest wargames ever made.
Columbia Games developed a lot of very good games: http://www.columbiagames.com/

If anyone would like to know something about those block-games, just ask me.

I played the first one, it was fresh entry on the hackeneyed WW2 shooter theme.

I’m still trying to finish Earned in Blood on hard, which is disappointing as a sequel in terms that it didn’t really push the series - just more of the same (which is still good).

This video makes the next one look hopeful.

:-o
  I have several copies of CotE. I got them to play miniatures with. Painted up and all the figures and paced them on multiple stands as cohorts.
The game was lacking special events, so we made up some cards. Gothic invasion- retreat all army units from Gaul, Vesuvius erupts- lose 1/2 units in southern Italy, Plauge in Athens- troops in Greece are decimated- lose 1/2 your force there. There were good cards too, like, Good harvest-gain 5 gold! Deplomacy- no one can attack you this turn, as long as you don’t attack anyone else.
It really livened up the game and cold put the brakes on someones steam-roller invasions. I liked it alot myself. I am tempted to get the newer version soon.
Played FA back in the 80s’ too, but didn’t like it as much as AA.
Shogun is a great multiplayer game due to the deplomacy. Had to paint those armies too.
Also had that Bucaneer game for awhile. Couldn’t get anyone to play it though, so I traded it for another CotE game, More cohorts!

I think Julius Ceasar said it best; “Now were in for it!”

@AJ:

I went on vacation for 3 weeks and now my country is gone  :cry:
gotta start over … if i do i will look for nato

why not wapa? they’ll pay you more.

Eh we’ll see I don’t think I’m going to restart :lol:

Like I said before I’m not all that much into sports games on consul systems but I’m thinking of giving them a try on wii. Every one says it’s diffrent.

Don’t feel bad, it is fun.  I’ve only played a few times and enjoyed the interaction, just hated the music.

I prefer Guitar Hero myself…it’s a bit more “manly.”

Oddly Enough, I never played Pacific General.  I literally wore a hole in my Panzer General I disc, played a lot of Panzer General II, played People’s General until I realized how broken the Chinese engineers were.

Good list, Yanny.  I have had the pleasure of playing/beating most of those games.

I know Oregon Trail was popular as hell, but I didn’t think anyone played OT2.  I loved OD’ing grandma on the laudanum.  :lol:

Yep you are correct. between that and Halo 3 it looks like I got to buy a Xbox 360.
