-Captain to Colonel now have a unique soldier model with a 'Red Beret' you are now part of the Airborne Infantry 'The Red Devils'
-Brigadier General to General now have a unique soldier model with a 'Green Beret' and face paint, you are now part of the Commandos 'The Men With Green Faces'
-General of the Army now have a unique soldier model with a 'Tan Beret' and face paint, you are now part of the 1st Special Forces Group 'The Tip of the Spear', you are also not tied to any faction and now considered in support of either faction in time of war, you belong to your unit and have your own unique special forces group utility uniform. You will still wear the faction utility uniform when using their protective vests or heavy body armour.
-New campaign called 'Commando' simmilar to Man vs World but far more challenging, completion of the Commando campaign is not a requirement for success and is not expected of you, it is a very tough environment that demands extreme concentration and focus, it is a place to develop your individual fighting skills, and to get you ready for special operations deep behind enemy lines and very often alone and vastly outnumbered, continued practice in this environment will turn you into a hardened commando, just like me, without the tobacco chewing !
-Commando tips, on every map there is a short section with helpful advice from the Commandos, tips on how to fight, survive and increase your combat power, listen to and practice the advice of the Commandos and you will too become a superiour fighting force.
My name is Josef Mueller a.k.a Anzac_Joe you would have seen me on the official invasion servers, i play this game a lot specially during my development of this mod, i am a RWR fan and tactical shooter fan of the 90's and early 2000's, i have been a personal modder for over 20 years, my first mod was for Command & Conquer Red Alert back in 1996 and ever since then i have been modding games for my own personal enjoyment and as a hobby, this is my first online release, the largest mod i have ever created for a game and the hardest i have ever worked on a project even for a professional company.
After the release of this mod i will be entering a programming course to become my own game developer and the tactical shooter is the genre i most love, i have so many great ideas that i just dont see implemented in the AAA tactical shooters of today that i HAVE seen in tactical shooters of the 90's, rather than continue to wait in frustration until somebody creates a new tactical shooter in the same spirit of the legends of old that have been forgotten by today’s youth through time, i have decided to learn programming and take my modding skills with me to venture into the gaming industry as an indie developer, i want to create great games in the spirit of the golden age of gaming, with gameplay first and realism takes the centre stage. Games that grab you and shake you to the core, great games that come to mind that i will never forget in my time are Tom Clancy's Rainbow Six PC 1998 and Sierra's Swat 4 2005 just two of many greats in gaming history that were a part of my own gaming history.
My family tree has always been a part of the military, i was the only one to have never joined the military, i grew up listening to war stories, reading military books, studying military tactics and playing hard core strategy games and tactical shooters as a kid. Now that i am well into my 30's and realising that life is too short, i want to create those great games for other people to enjoy and have great memories too.
How did i get the name Anzac_Joe ?
The name Anzac_Joe is over 20 years old, i played 'Close Combat 2: A Bridge Too Far' back in 1997 and borrowed a friends 56kbps modem to play online, i joined a clan called the ANZAC CLAN, it was there that i was given the name Anzac_Joe, the name was lost for near 20 years till i resurrected it when i first signed in to Running With Rifles in April 2015, RWR brought back good memories of my online gaming back in 1997 with Close Combat 2.
Enjoy my mod INFANTRY ! As much as i have enjoyed creating it !
It was one hell of a project and a great learning experience with modding newer games today !
See you out there and never stop gaming and enjoying life to the fullest !
Peace be with you !
All the best !
Regards from the 'Land Down Under' i call home 'Sydney - Australia !'

Hello everyone !
I made INFANTRY 1.1 available on ModDB for anyone who has trouble with downloading from Steam Workshop or wants an alternative download.
I will be equally as active on ModDB as i am on the Steam Workshop Page.
Any patches or updates to the mod will also be made available on ModDB.
Also one last thing, the installation video i uploaded to ModDB is the same installation video for steam, the only difference now is that you no longer need to navigate to your steam subcriber download folder, making a backup of your original game is still very important and also how to extract the archive to your running with rifles folder is also very important, so watch the video.
Check out my YouTube Channel 'Anzac Joe' for additional videos about INFANTRY 1.1, i have more videos to create on my channel so stay tuned !
Have a great day !
Cheers
-Anzac
Christ this mod is bigger than the base game! must've been an Amazingly huge effort put on this! This needs lots and lots more attention
Hello Everyone !
LIGHT INFANTRY & INFANTRY have been archived on ModDB due to incompatibility with the new version of Running With Rifles v1.50
This is to avoid downloading an incompatible mod that overwrites vanilla game files.
I am working on version 1.30 of LIGHT INFANTRY & INFANTRY which will be compatible with RWR v1.50
Stay tuned on my ModDB page and also on my Steam thread discussion:
Steamcommunity.com
Cheers !
