Sands of War
Half-Life mod | Released May 27, 2006
A mod that mixes the tactics of TFC with the realism from CS/DoD. Set in 2023, advanced weaponry creates the ultimate war. Well balanced classes that support each other work together to control flags around the map, no waiting for capture to keep you on your toes! Desert setting in maps is accomplished through excellent use of textures and design. Take up the fight of either the CODE or AIM soon! "The desert heat scorches your soul, War is HELL!" Visit our site and download the mod now!
