First Strike is a Star Wars total conversion modification for Battlefield 2142. The goal of First Strike is to totally immerse the players into the amazing universe of Star Wars by presenting the most accurate representations of famous Star Wars locales, weapons, and characters, and combining them with exciting, fast paced gameplay and features new to the Battlefield scene. Within this mod you'll find yourself as a soldier of the Galactic Empire or as a freedom fighter for the Rebel Alliance. You'll fight across lovingly detailed recreations of various Star Wars locations with a wide array of weapons and vehicles.

Merry Christmas from all at First Strike. As thanks for your votes over the recent MOTY Awards, and to celebrate the season, we'd like to present you with this selection of festive (Well they DO have snow in them) screenshots from the upcoming Battle of Hoth map, a little something to shove under the tree, or on the mantelpiece from the First Strike team.

As an additional gift, we're planning to get some games in this week during the break in the campaign event until after the new year. If you'd like to join us, we'll be starting on Rebel Defiance from 8pm GMT every night. We have direct admin control so can change maps, edit map lists and ticket counts etc on the fly. Ideally, we'd like to be able to reach a point where Rebel Defiance is full to capacity and we have to switch to the larger BI server. If you'd like to help see a fully populated First Strike server, then feel free to jump on. Remember, its from 8pm every night this week (except of course Christmas Eve, Christmas Day etc), you don't have to be there on the dot, there will be no password, just come and join us for some great games.

As an added bonus, if you'd like to join some team chat and have Ventrillo, We will open up the Dev Team's private Ventrillo server for use. Feel free to join it and talk with other players, increasing team work and community relations!

Ventrillo details:

Hostname/IP = vent.killercreation.co.uk

Port = 33839

If you are interested in joining this vent channel, then please try to connect early. This is so that if you have any problems you can post on the FS forums for help, but also because space is limited on there.

Finally, in conjunction with Black Intel we'll be hosting a number of gaming event nights over the Christmas and New Year season on their server, so stay tuned for details on the dates and time of those events.

So that's the lot then guys, the Devs are stepping up to the plate and calling you out! Get your game on this holiday season with First Strike!

Once again a very Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to you all, and remember...

The Force will be with you, always.
