As for the mod:

We got a lot of work to do, BUT the mod is pretty much almost done without a doubt. With regards to what got done out of the total work that needs to be done, we are then 86.33333333% complete! These are taken directly from my changelog, what is done / needs, and we hope to make this release golden and 100% organized for the implementation of future versions!

AI though is holding us back and that can and will take a while along with revamping the maps and making them better for the UA mod.

For those of you who do not know what 1.73 is?

What is 1.73? GOAL - Version 1.73 will be the primarily last 100% skirmish focused version before the Grand Release Gold Edition. This version is the big hit of skirmish gameplay, featuring less unbalanced races, polished feel, and finally, the final adjustments of each faction will take place. Like for example, Dark Eldar will have its complete conceptual design of the race finished in this version. Major changes in skirmish will not happen afterwords, and in this version, we will be sure that
major changes will not be meant to happen in the future. So this is it. New content will never be abandoned, and small concepts will be implemented to make things interesting. But vanilla 9 races revamp will not take effect.

Chaos Daemons race released from October, version 1.4 and 1.5 will be fixed along within version 1.73. So version 1.73 with New Races and its campaign will not be a hastle to install. Inquisition Daemonhunters and Chaos Daemons along with the campaign are not our primary focus, they will be done in version 1.74 and 1.75. Version 1.73 will be a complete version, not a patch, so this might replace the Grand Release 1.7 completely. :) So if you screwed up your installation from the past, then it isn't too late!

UCS, balance, AI, and others that are lacking in this mod will take in effect here. This is our primary focus along with mod maintenance and cleaning the mod for its complete release. Again, version 1.73 is NOT a patch and it will be a complete version because of issues regarding what is contained in version 1.7.

Earlier releases will remain on MOD DB. We hope to update Zombie Apocalypse 0.6 and improve that greatly. UA mod campaign will not be released in version 1.73 or 1.74 because it is still in the works and we want to release this thing polished and ready to go!

Release date? Unknown.

Status of the completion of version 1.73 is in the works.

Why provide donations? You get lots of stuff from us, including a continued campaign that is yet unfinished and loads of support and mod fixes. This is not a requirement, and by donating, the Apocalypse mod team will be active doing up the mod, releasing updates, and providing more epic entertainment than fooling around with other stuff.

Why provide donations? Over 50 members have, and they were rewarded with what they wanted to see in the UA mod, and because of them, this mod is continued in development. We have explored it all in this mod, and we are not inspired by passion anymore, so by these wonderful donations, well, just look at the progress!

This is no requirement, you are not forced to make any transaction, it is all optional, very appreciated, you can be put in the list of donators or possibly be a character in the UA mod when the campaign is done, and further, you get to boss us around and have at what you want!

So what are you waiting for? Donate!
