As a special surprise before the 24th campaign of WaW kicks off we're hosting a new air/navy event this Saturday.

You can expect enhanced versions of Tyrrhenian Sea and Supplies for Malta, as well as Wake Island.
There's also going to be a brand new objective based map Battle of the Atlantic ... think Supplies for Malta in the open ocean.

There have been some coding changes to the ships, new effects added, etc. A lot of good changes to make them even more fun.
WaW's squadron of custom planes will also be available for everyone to fly with nosecams.
Hit the beaches of Wake with spawnable LCVPs and lots more!

If you enjoyed WaW's last public Naval & Custom Map Day back in July you won't want to miss this.

- Wake Island (Conquest)
- Battle of the Atlantic (Objective)

This coming Saturday, September 3rd, the World at War Tournament invites you to take part in a another special event: Naval & Air Combat using Forgotten Hope 2.4
Our last Air/Navy events were a great success. Since the release of FH2.4 our modders have been hard at working adjust our custom vehicles and making everything compatible. It's been almost two months since our last public event and it's time to get to do it again!

Take to sea and experience the awesome firepower of might ships such as the H.M.S. Hood and Prinz Eugen. Take the helm and command the ship and her guns or defend her against air attack by using the many anti-aircraft batteries. Counter the heavy ships with Cruisers, destroyers, PT boats, Schnellboats, or stalk your prey from the depths with Submarines. Seasick? Don't worry. Sink those beasts from the air with torpedo bombers or from Coastal gun emplacements. Had enough of ships and want to hit the beach? Grab a landing craft off the back of a destroyer and take the fight to the enemy with your squad!
Special thanks to the guys behind FH1, as most of the FH1 ships and aircraft are imported and recoded by our modders to work with FH2.

Event Features:
Battle on at least 4 exciting and unique custom maps
- Tyrrhenian Sea: Fight for control of the sea amongst small islands using heavy air support.
- Supplies for Malta: Win the map by escorting a convoy of supply vessels to the port of  Valletta against heavy German raids.
- Wake Island: Relive the classic BF1942 map in all its glory with naval, land and air assets.
- Battle of the Atlantic: Protect the Atlantic Convoy from the might of the Kriegsmarine and her Wolfpacks.

Utilize all kinds of new equipment and vehicles
- Custom equipment such as Coastal Defence Guns
- New aircraft such as the P-38 Lightning, BF-110, ME-262, Ju88, B25, He-111 and more
- Fully functional battleships, destroyers, patrol boats and submarines
- Spawnable Landing Craft that launch off the back of destroyers

 :( I can only come very late this Saturday.

And although I think it is great that you posted it so nobody gets the surprise when they are in there, the FW really looks odd, but you guys already knew that of course  :P

Looking forward to Malta and Atlantic! Please only rotate custom maps!

Nice to know! Was just not sure if it was something super organized, because I remember being very confused last time I signed up for something like that.

This is one of our public play events instead of an organized battle. You just have to download and install the maps and jump in.
If you want you can join us on our TS3 server as well but you don't have to.

The last times we've done these events the maps have been planning for weeks on our server :) I'm sure you'll be able to get online with a bunch of other players after Saturday.
