Basically, this is a really short news update for the mod.
I was informed that "Legally you are not allowed to bring any xpack content to players who don't have those xpacks already".
"Oh bugger..." said I, who quickly set about removing the downloads from the public areas where they were posted.
And so work on the mod is on short term hold while I discuss with various people and wrestle to get people who are willing to participate in the mod team as we will not be in dire need of people who posses a wide range of skills in order to make the original concept a reality. At the moment it looks like the mod will no longer feature special forces, but may well feature new conventional armies and will almost certainly feature new maps. We will however still be adding a single player campaign at some point, it just won't be as good as it could have been...
Why can't western companies take the same angle on this as the Japanese would have?
