Forgotten Hope 2 is an award-winning World War II modification for Battlefield 2TM and is based on the original Forgotten Hope, a modification for Battlefield 1942TM, one of the most popular multiplayer games ever. Battlefield 1942TM featured land, sea and air combat in a way never before seen. It was the goal of the development team to maximize the game experience by adding both a realistic and enjoyable gameplay to FH and now to FH2.
During the 1920's the French Infantry had decided to fully mechanise their formations, however there was not enough money in the budget to fully achieve this. One things that was decided upon was the need for a small armoured vehicle capable of carrying supplies to units under fire. A number of designs were submitted, and the submission from Renault was chosen in October 1931.
Loosely based on the Carden-Loyd Mark VI, the Renault UE was capable of carrying 350 kg of supplies in its rear basket, with a further 600 kg in the UK trailer. The basket could be tilted to more easily remove supplies. The vehicle was so low that armoured hoods had to be placed on top of the crew compartment to protect their heads. Communication between the commander and the driver was accomplished with a set of coloured lights.
Following the fall of France, the Germans captured about 3000 Renault UE and used many of them unmodified as tractors for smaller artillery pieces. Amongst other modifications, about 40 were modified to carry 4 Wurfrahmen 40 rockets. These were known as Selbstfahrlafette für 28/32 cm Wurfrahmen auf Infanterie-Schlepper UE(f). The frames that held the rockets were either mounted to the sides or on a platform fixed to the basket. Our Renault UE was made by Krätzer.
Amazing :'( So in this version we'll have Soviet and French huh :'( Lov u guy so much and hope we will soon have China and Japan :'(
The devs have said that French will not appear in the game (at least not for now). The featured French vehicles will be used by the Germans.
The Soviets will appear, but not in the next update.
The Japanese are featured in an unofficial patch. They are very nicely done (uniforms, weapons and vehicles), so I hope they will be officially included in the game some day, althoug the devs haven't said anything about it.
Can you provide a link or name of this unofficial patch?
Hi there!
This Renault UE will be used at Pegasus by the Germans (hence the Wurfgerät). :)
Just to say, will the Nationalist Chinese forces be considered to be added?
If that ever happens, Pacific might come first. :)
I love the UE, I have been waiting for it to appear in a game.
I just read about cute little renault tanks lol
Finish the Units of West and East then Handles the Pacifics I guess
