Welcome to Sands of War!

The game is a team based tactical shooter set in middle eastern desert environments. If you want some media, then head over to the screenshots section.

From the very first beta the game has included 2 gameplay modes:
- SoW Classic
- Rally

SoW Classic is the same gameplay as in SoW1 which is about area control. In SoW2 we have introduced a new gameplay mode called Rally in which you race against each other in hot deserts.

Four years ago a mod project dubbed Sands of War was started with the goal of producing a mod that contained the best of CS and TFC. Unlike most other mod teams, these guys actually made it to the release. It did not stop there though as many improved versions followed. A sequel running on the Source engine was even developed and released.

Everything however has to come to an end at some point. Today is that point for Sands of War. The Sands of War project is now officially closed.

I, Michael 'Zacker' Schmidt, stopped as game director in October 2006. I had hoped that the mod would continue the great work, but unfortunately that did not happen. Because of this, the crew and I have decided to stop all development on the project.

A few crew members have written a final goodbye in this thread:

If you can't connect then it might be because it is one of our testing servers for upcoming versions which you have seen.
