A sci-fi take on the classic that is Battlefield 2. Inspired by James Cameron's 1986 Aliens, Acheron aims to bring the mighty firepower of the US Colonial Marines in two types of situations: simulated human-vs-human battles (Red vs. Blue type) and real battles in which "a xenomorph may be involved".
Gear up marines and make those bullets count! Beware of Face Huggers and stay clear of the Xenomorphs acid blood. Download this new BF2 modification and deploy on the battlefield to fight the alien invasion, Refractor Engine planet needs you! :P
It is strongly advised to join the Lost-Soldiers BF2 Discord to meet in the voice-chat and coordinate the efforts to repel the alien horde; otherwise it is guaranteed you will die a horrible death :) plus you get to see all of the other Battlefield 2 (as well as BF1942/Vietnam) events that we have in store for you.
Something to keep you guys busy during the upcoming Halloween if the weather will force you to stay inside! ;D
Hey there Frosty, the mod was featured in this Top 7 Mods Youtube.com video by Freedomlander!
I've installed and played this mod and so far it's quite good! The marine weapons works well and the xenomorphs have interesting mechanics. However, I have some questions:
-How do I increase total bots in a map? I tried to edit the setMaxNbots line in the AIDefault file but the bots stay the same number. I want to add more alien bots. (Note: I launched the mod through BF2SPCC)
-When playing as aliens, how do we destroy vehicles like the marine APC?
-Also would be great if you include some kind of tutorial file that explains the new functions that marines and aliens have, because we could fail to see the in-game tutorial during gameplay.
So far that's what I want to say. This mod have huge potential and I'd look forward to what you guys will add next for this!
I would like to see the UD-4 Utility Dropship one day, it would be really cool.

Lovely proof of concept man! Had a great game-night in Lost Soldiers server, looking forward to make the Experimental video on the mod as promised before :D
Install the mod and join the Lost-Soldiers.org | Acheron bf2hub co-op server tomorrow starting at 16:00 UTC for some alien bashing fun! All the details available in our forum at Lost-soldiers.org
Great MOD I like it :) But is there any way to have more BOTs join the USCM team battle against the Xenomorph?
Thanks a lot!! ;)
To increase the bot count in the USCM team, open the acheron folder and go to python/game/gamemodes/gpm_cq.py (this is for the singleplayer; if you'd like to change the co-op bot count, open gpm_coop.py instead). You can edit the .py files with a simple notepad.
In line 6 of gpm_cq.py (and/or gpm_coop.py), it says HUMANCOUNT_ALIENS = 9 - this is the number of players in the USCM team including the player. Just change the 9 to whatever number you'd prefer, but keep in mind that the overall bot count does not change, so every bot that you add to the USCM team means one fewer alien (and vice versa).
NOTEEEED!! :P
By the way, the Xenomorph Queen can be taken from here
