The Battle Grounds 2 and Battle Grounds 3(BG3) are Half-Life 2 multiplayer modifications based on the American War of Independence (1775-1783). The British Army and its Native American tribal allies engage in battle against the United States Continental Army and militia forces. Take aim and fire muskets, prepare bayonets and take control of the battlefield to succeed in your campaign for final victory. Combat will vary from long-range rifle marksmanship to brutal close quarters hand-to-hand melee fighting. You will need a mix of first person combat skills and quick-thinking strategy to survive. So prepare yourself to do battle for your side and to meet the enemy head-on. Only one side can be victorious.

Reduced pistol constant damage range to 8 yards (from 15).
So once again i find that the pistol is useless
as historically accurate as it may be it does not make for good gameplay. Officer i s my favourite class yet its onl;y truly effective on maps like ambush where you dont get shot to **** by enemy fire. It just seems this is making even more hurdles for the officer to jump over
As for the rest of the patch good work yet im not sure how the shot will play now.
The pistol will still deal out deadly chest and stomach shots from close distance, the damage will just degrade slightly earlier. Chest Damage should still be good to about 15-20 yards.
Well, chances are that someone you hit at that distance is not at full health anyway, and 7 yards constant damage range is not a big difference. We will see how this feels in-game however.
SP1 is good but what about SP2? is that good?
SP2 caused some problems with certain Linux distributions, so we still officially distribute SP1. SP2 only contained a few minor fixes.
