Forgotten Hope 2 is an award-winning World War II modification for Battlefield 2TM and is based on the original Forgotten Hope, a modification for Battlefield 1942TM, one of the most popular multiplayer games ever. Battlefield 1942TM featured land, sea and air combat in a way never before seen. It was the goal of the development team to maximize the game experience by adding both a realistic and enjoyable gameplay to FH and now to FH2.
In early September 1939, the French launched an offensive into the Saarland in support of the Poles. French soldiers soon came across the 1935 S-mine, which quickly gained a reputation as "The Silent Soldier". Work began immediately to develop a copy. The new design used a 60mm mortar bomb as the projectile, launched by a blackpowder charge from a large tube that was connected to the fuse mechanism. It could be either triggered by pressure or a tripwire, and would jump up to chest height before detonating.
The blueprints for the Mle 1939 would be taken to the USA after the fall of France, and there became the basis for the US M2 anti-personnel mine. Our Mle 1939 was made by Seth Soldier.
