The ASoC Mod aims to introduce the military history of the first half of 20th Century China(1910s-1950s) to the MoW:AS2 community. The mod will be released in chapters, the first chapter will focus on China’s War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression 1931-1945. While later chapters will cover conflicts such as the Chinese Civil War, Korean War and the earlier Warlord Era. The mod will be singleplayer oriented upon release, with multiplayer function planned for a later date. With the introduction of ASoC, the MoW:AS2 community can finally get an authentic vibe for the Far East battlefields. The well-researched and diverse humanskins and equipment will add more realism to your favorite GEM game. So stay tuned and get ready to dive into a forgotten page of history!

The bad news first, My laptop has been acting up lately and it finally broke down a few weeks ago. Just as I was backing up the latest test version of the mod. The file was unfortunately corrupted due to the sudden power-loss and my progress was pushed back a little bit.
Fortunately, I saw the possibility of having to face a scenario like this and I stored an older version and the raw 2D/3D assets on my mobile hard drive, therefore I can just export them and minimizes the losses incurred. The re-writing of .def and .set as well as other text files will take sometime though, but no major permanent damage was done.(some artistic inconsistency may exist)
The bulk of the artistic assets such as humanskins, infantry portraits are mostly finished for WWII China and Japan. Before the drama, I was working on adding more new civilians and vehicles to the mod.
The major obstacle lying ahead is the Map&Mission, as I am seriously short-staffed right now, I have to work on several different things simultaneously(humanskins,textures,portraits,sets,sound effects, voice acting,etc) and lack the time to port new buildings.
Ideally, a closed test will be carried out by the end of the year.
