We know man...!
But whatever you do, and no matter how perfect you install this mod, it still crashes!
This is a very sloppy job of the modders that created it...
Very unplayable! :(

Hey guys, thanks for the awesome mod! Sorry if it's been mentioned, but are the soldiers supposed to be in uneven lines, where they're kind of overlapping each other?
