After a long, bloody war in the Sudan, the governments of the United States and Russia struck an uneasy cease-fire over the fate of Africa and its burgeoning industry. This peace would be short lived, for to the north a new conflict was brewing. Ukraine, a former satellite state of the Soviet Union, sought to gain back the power from which it once reveled in.

As the snow fell in a heavy midwinter storm, Ukrainian troops moved towards the border of Belarus. Without warning, Ukrainian troops attacked with a speed and effectiveness not seen since the blitzkrieg of WWII. With their aggressive tactics, the Ukrainian army reached the capital of Belarus in a matter of weeks. The lightly armed and ill-prepared Belarusian army could do little to stop this onslaught of men and metal.

The fall of Minsk signaled the end of resistance throughout Belarus. The bordering countries of Ukraine and Belarus began to wonder if they were as vulnerable to occupation as Belarus had been.

The United Nations condemned these attacks as unjust and illegal but was unable to pass a mandate to take action against the expansionist aims of Ukraine. The UN's inability to act upon the actions of the Ukrainian army only strengthened Ukraine's resolve that they could not easily be stopped. Six months came to pass with no military action against Ukraine but rumors had started that Ukraine was systematically killing their former political competitors. With no clear evidence of the assassinations, the United Nations was still reluctant to take action.

As time passed, more evidence surfaced of executions, illegal imprisonment, and torture; however, it was all unconfirmed information until a Kramaerican Photo reconnaissance satellite passed overhead. The satellite caught pictures of mass graves where the Ukrainian army had been dumping the bodies of political enemies and what appeared to be unarmed civilians.

This information was promptly forwarded to the UN Security Council. With an unprecedented 93% majority, a mandate was drafted and signed. Troops would be sent into Ukraine and Belarus to bring those who had committed these crimes to justice. In an underground bunker, military advisers and command staff from around the world met to plan the attack.

The principal military force to go into Ukraine would be led by Germany and the United States. They planned to hit Ukraine first in the hopes that if the Ukrainian public found out about the war crimes their government had committed in their name, the citizens would lay down their arms and greet the American and German troops as liberators. The plan consisted of a massive airborne assault and armored spear head from Poland. The German forces would rush to Kiev in the heart of the country, while the United States protected their northern flank from the Ukrainian troops based in Belarus.

On a dim night in September, the invasion of Ukraine was started. Through the darkness came ten thousand airborne troops, dropping from the sky like a heavy rainstorm.

The destiny of Eastern Europe now lies in your hands. It is time for you to choose which side of this epic conflict you shall fight on to prove your Point of Existence.

Welcome back to another PoE news update. First off we have a brand new video to showcase of a map Jilted has been working on for a long time. The map, Olesko Castle, is an infantry guys dream with long corridors and lots of options for attacking or defending inside this vast castle. Illicitfilms has been working on this video he made with our testers and we hope you enjoy it.


Not only does this map have normal conquest mode but Seigman has produced a brand new game mode that can be mixed into regular rotation. Here is a brief description of our new game mode.

User Posted Image
in•cur•sion - noun
raid: a brief, hostile, and usually sudden invasion of somebody's territory.

This is an incursion map. The attacking team must take and hold one of two flags within the allotted time or destroy the defending team. Defending team must guard both flags from attack or destroy the attacking team. You will only have one life per round.

We also want to thank all those who submitted Billboards for the PoE Alienware Billboard contest and all the fans who came out to vote. The billboards were creative, well done, and in some cases very amusing! Overall we were very impressed with the work that was done. While the fans picked the top 3, the Dev team picked from the remaining ones which was their favorite and that billboard will also get a spot in our next release. All winners will receive prizes from Alienware and inclusion in our next release!


We would also like to announce we have hit a major milestone in our next release. We will be compiling last minute information in the coming days and hope to give you something more to look at near the end of the week.

We are still in need of 3Dmax coders, modelers, and skinners. If you have what it takes, please Apply Here.

Thats all for now, PoE Team signing off...

You will be able to zoom in with either rifle and reach out and touch your target very easily. This will be a pick-up kit to limit this deadly weapon on the battlefield.

Thanks,

Does anyone know whether the vehicles in this game will be coded a little bit more uniquely than the identical helicopters/planes in BF2? IMHO, the Hind should be able to carry a couple of passengers (like in reality. It makes the chopper as unique as it is). Likewise, the Eurocopter should be somewhat more maneuverable.
