If you're looking for the most realistic mod to half-life and big maps this is it, basically counter strike with more weapons, leg damage, bleeding, shockwaves, bipods and lots of other cool stuff.

Amazing mod for american conquest, in short combines american conquest system and cossacks system for the best result with the best gameplay, also has much more units then in cossacks, only negative would be playing with AI or against in Multi/Single mode. You need to download an earlier patch to play with it and thus a few features won't be there which were in the latest atch.

Is there really much to say? 2007 was a great year for HL mods, and this one was the best and most complete one of the year! It's an experience better then Fear and most other commercial horror crap.

It's a hardcore mod, it's good at what it was aimed for people!!!!!! Saved a bunch of time for making one yourself with skill.cfg and other configs.

Great classic of HL mods. Period.

Its definetly the funniest mod i played for hl. Maps are made very proffesionally and some maps have a terrfic atmosphere, in general the objects in the maps and environment is very detailed and clean. Some moments remind of scenes from funny old hollywood films like police academy,with random stuff happening all the time. There is at least one part in the game which I have to mention is boring, a labyrinth with an incredibly slow train, didn't really understand the point of that but if it was for humour as a joke that all employees have to go throguh that, I felt the 20 minute ride barely made up to it, and I was lucky to get to the end that fast by the way, there was literally hundreds of turns in nowhere. This mod also has a huge collection of secrets, around 5 dozens, but when you get to them (And i got to only like 5 % of them) generally there isn't much to do although there is a huge one in the end I won't spoil ;). This isn't a total conversion mod of course and the story line is pretty simple but the point of this mod was the humour, environment and challenging objectives and two me this mod got a 9 in the end! Definetly something worth mentioning when thinking of classic HL mods. I'm actually going to rate this mod a 10 though because there was someone who rated it an undeserved four

Just amazing mod, it deserves a 10, great atmosphere, story, gameplay, music. Everything is like a great European movie. Great Stuff! This is what makes Half-life so great, the modding community!

Just a great game, better than the original, want to see more on Shephard some time soon!!!
