The total conversion modification Battlefield 1918 (or BF1918 for short) takes Battlefield 1942 into a whole new scenario, the first world war. Next to historically correct equipments and vehicles, we recreated the atmosphere of these WW1 battlefields as close as we can, keeping in mind the game we are working with. To achieve this, we have drastically changed the gameplay from the original game like so that you must now rely on teamwork, artillery, trenches and slow vehicles.
Battlefield 1918 combines fun with historical correctness, gaming with history, the memory of one of the most terrifying wars mankind has ever known, with fun had by people over the internet. Next to the battles fought on the Western front between mostly the Germans, the British and the French, wealso cover other scenarios, such as the Turkish battlefields at Gallipoli, the Eastern front where Germany and Austria-Hungaria fought against Russia, the Italian front and lately the battles in Africa. Next to land- and airbattles using historic weapons and vehicles, we are also planning on covering the naval aspect of WW1 in a broad spectrum, as this was the time in which the great battleships still were the absolute rulers of the seas.
Inside1918 is a small community still working on Battlefield 1918. We organize tournaments, events and LANs around the game and we are keeping the mod alive. At the moment, we are working on the Major Release 3, which will be Battlefield 1918 final. So check out www.inside1918.net (German) or En.inside1918.net (international edition) if you are interested.

Well, what else is left to say? You read the texts. You looked at the pictures. You watched the videos. And now, finally, after all these months of work, Inside1918 is proud to announce that can now play Battlefield 1918 Major Release 3.0!
Let us not waste any more words. You guys know the drill. Get the installer. You all know you want it!
(For more mirrors besides this one please refer to the corresponding section in our mod's summary! We will try to keep that list always up-to-date.)
Note that this is a full client and therefore NOT a patch. That means that you MUST DELETE ANY OLDER VERSION OF BATTLEFIELD1918 BEFORE YOU RUN THE INSTALLER!
Please scroll down until the end of the text for the complete changelog.
While you are downloading (which you should be doing right now...), please have a look about a few informations we would like to show you:
First of all, here are two final map previews, this time for Cantigy - one of the maps where the Doughboys engage the German fortification. This map is a classical trench warfare map.

would like to thank the creators of Battlegroup42, Norwegian Resistance and Forgotten Hope for giving us both a helping hand everytime we needed it and their permission to use some of their content in our mod. Very special thanks go to BOMMEL and SARGE31FR from Battlegroup42 - guys, without you, certain things in the mod would not run as smoothly as they do now. Danke!Very very special thanks go to Grauer Wolf, leader and founder of Daddeltreff.de, for allowing us to use his server, and therefore keeping BF1918 alive.
Note that we used some airplane models of a fantastic, yet unfortunaly dead BF1942 mod called "The Great War". We did not manage to get in contact with the developers of this mod; if we could, we asked before we used other people's creative work. However, we think that they would like the idea of keeping some of their great models alive by using them in our mod. Just in case we are wrong, please let us know.
