Just download and install our minimod and the maps listed, then join us on our public server.

We have 7 new maps scheduled for Saturday.

The map test session starts Saturday (Saturday February 25) at 17:00 GMT = 12pm EST.

A quick preview of one of the maps: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QxF1n5A3KWo
Although I've done a few fixes & lightmaps since that version.

Hope to see you guys there!

BOMBING THE REICH? With LANCASTERS? If that's true I'll soooo be there!

 I couldn't commit to the day of playtesting but would anyone who took part relate their opinions about the maps in question?

 i loved the naval maps and sundry other WaW maps such as Alpenfestung and I truly wonder how the FH1 classics translate across the board?

Seems like you guys have a crazy productive map team lately, kudos to your efforts

You can find a lot of feedback over at our forums: http://tournaments.myinternetservices.com/showthread.php?t=288478

You're right, our mappers have been doing a lot of work lately and cranking out a bunch of new maps.

Next week we'll be testing 5 remakes of classic FH1 maps. You won't want to miss it.

 thanks A.V. Roe,

 by the way, everytime i read your name I can't help but think of my uncle who worked on that project. As an aside, i met a fellow this Christmas past, who has a chunk of the Arrow in his closet. before they were scrapped, he chopped off a hunk of the cockpit and has it preserved under glass in his house.

Will be there for next weekend's testing (provided no bloody work conflict)

sheikyerbouti, that's pretty cool. I saw a movie about the Avro Arrow once and thought it would make a cool nickname :)

Our next map test event is taking place tomorrow, Sat Feb 18. I've updated the first post.

You can find the download links for the maps, minimod and screenshots at our forum: http://tournaments.myinternetservices.com/showthread.php?t=288745

We have 5 new maps scheduled for Saturday.

Classic Iwo jima, Classic Operation Aberdeen, Classic Battle of the Bulge, Breakthrough 2, Operation Brassard

The maps feature a lot of custom WaW equipment. 2 maps have fully functioning ships and naval combat!!
