Beyond the Battlefield mod

BEYOND THE BATTLEFIELD is a total conversion mod for Battlefield 1942.

The mod is based on the conflicts between several parties that were seen in Command and Conquer. Mainly Red Alert and the original. This mod will add several new features to the game. Here is a short list of what we will try to include in the final release of the mod. It plays just as battlefield 1942 does, except there is a commando class to build things, pay for research, and make decisions for his team. There are a ton of new features, don't expect these to come in near the begining, but if you stay with us we will eventually get them in, or try to, depending on engine limitations.

- A dozen or so different classes (commando, sniper, chrono trooper, flame trooper, spy, engineer, tesla trooper, a pilot class, and more)

- A money system based upon damage dealt.

- A commander class, this class builds your base, buildings, and does research, they can only see what his troops see because of the shroud of war. The commander plays a vital role, they must balance offensive structures as well as defensive structures, money management, as well as space efficiency. He must also communicate well with his troops, if he doesn't his troops will be going in blind, the commander can see every unit on the field and must relay this info
to the troops. The commander can also do research to make better weaponry available for purchase.

- Buildings that are built can be taken over by engineers and you can fight inside of them as well.

- All new vehicles including a helicopter that you can rapell from onto buldings and such, as well as hovercrafts, ships, tanks (including the mammoth tank!) and many other
suprises.

- Tank depots as well as tech centers and airfields can be built by the commander to give his units the edge in battle. He can even build pillboxes, tesla coils, walls, and even a nuclear silo and possibly an ion cannon.

- Weapon upgrades and equipment will be available for purchase when researched, such as grappling hooks, thermal vision, night vision, body armor, and C4.
