Who And When
"The Trenches" is a World War I mod for the Half-Life engine. Included in our first release are the British and Germans, two large players of the "Great War". Players will be able to fight for their homelands with six different weapons on many locations on the Western Front with two different kinds of gameplay.

Game Play
Rush over the top with your teammates or stay in your trench to pick off enemy troops in "Trench Capture" gameplay (tt) and cover the advance of your army to in territorial push (tp) play.

Special Features
The Trenches will have some features that will make this an even more unique mod than it already is. Some of these features (for the first release) include:

-Custom Faces (no additional files needed!)
-Built in MP3 Player with Exclusive Tracks
-Realistic ambient sound system
-Two classes for the Germans and British Imperial Forces
-Manual "game action" system
-High damage variables
-Anti-"Cheap" measures against spawn camping, absurd weapon reload times, ect.

Multi-Country Team Select
You can choose from 6 countries that were involved in the First World War. Only two will be available in the first release, but we do plan on more.

Allied Forces:
British Empire

Central Powers:
Germany

Well, it is time for some new news on this page, don't you think? With Morphew unable to update the site regularly, I will be filling in a bit to keep you all informed on our situation.

We are currently still working diligently on getting 1.1 released, and we are honestly closer than ever. To hold you all over for a bit, I figured I would make this news release a 2-part facet.

One is the release of tp_city, made by our mapper extraordinaire Hawk. It can be downloaded here or you can browse on over to the Downloads page and get it there as well. Remember, this is a custom map for The Trenches 1.0b.

Now to the other part of the post, 1.1 media. While we have been fairly skimpy with the media on the front page, we have been posting more and more on the forums. I figured I would share a few of those pictures with you as well as one never before seen outside a few select people. Here they are:

The website is done due to Curv rebuilding its server. I apologize for the down time, but there is nothing I can do at the moment to fix it.

Hey, The Trenches website has been down for awhile now. Is that temporary, or has something happened to this mod?

Dont worry,Slasher is back on the team and better than ever,He was just a bit mad so he wrote that...Everything is under control and fine :) . Now I have a message from the leader of the mod : Hotel Security

"Hey guys, Hotel here. We're coming now the home stretch and we definitely see the light at the end of the tunnel, but we need your help! If you're a skinner of player models or an animator (or both), please contact HotelSecurity at HFB_Mail@yahoo.com or go to our forums and post in the general section.We'd love to have you on the team. Please include a sample of your work and a brief background of your gaming history. Thanks in advance.

Now here's the good news!The trenches progress has been raised to a whopping 86.6%!!!The demo will go out shortly!!But we still need skinners or animators if you want the release to go out earlier.Anyways Thank you for visiting and have good day"

In reply to ceacar99.

Thats why their new leader is a historian.if you were on the team you'd know how much work they put into making this thing real. HotelSecurity writes 8 page documents just on small pieces of the mod for historical accuracy.

Looking foward to its release Jman - dont forget my modeling offer is still up if u wanna take it ;)
