BG42 Team Interview
September 3rd marks the release of BG42
1.0, the latest edition of our long running WW2 mod. To celebrate
the BG42 team will be on IRC from 6pm EST / 11pm GMT of the 3rd
for one hour of Questions & Answers.
Got a question for the team? Want to know what's in the mod, who
does what or what processes we follow? We'll do our best to answer
all your queries and conundrums.
Send your questions to : webadmin@battlegroup42.com.
We'll have our very own question master
to put the questions to the team and keeps things orderly so all
questions need to be emailed to us before the event!
So while you're waiting for your download
to complete why not get onto the GameSurge.net IRC server, channel
#BG42mod, we'll see you there!
Infantry:
Warriors of BG42 1.0
Combined arms, without it any team will
fail, and in BG42 it's no different. As promised we have made
our first concerted effort to overhaul the Infantry classes system
with the results first appearing in 1.0. New weapons such as anti-tank
rifles, hats and helmets such as the Russian Ushanka and new skins
all make an appearance for the first time in the BG42 mod. With
six classes there's quite a variety in kits which can also change
between maps as the time frame alters throughout the WW2 period.
Here's a taster of what's to come :
