The Polish Week

Greetings to you all! We would like to start this news update with some general information. As you might know a new patch for Battlefield 1942 has been released this week and some of you might be concerned about its affect on the the release date of Forgotten Hope 0.66. For now we have not found any problematic issues so we are still confident that we will be able to release the patch this month. If that's not good news... ;)

Before we reveal our latest news update we would like to inform you that a new season has started at Forgotten Hope Warzone. They are currently looking for German-speaking players who would like to play in their campaign as an allied soldier. All you need to join them is BF 1942, Forgotten Hope 0.65 and interest in team play and tactics. But read for yourself what FHW has to say:

---

The campaign we've just started puts us in battles against the Axis on every official FH map and also on unofficial maps our modders created exclusively for FHW. We don't play the same maps one after another. Instead, the right of who advances to where is changing every week. That way, the staff can decide where the next battle is to take place. At this time, the Axis are advancing in Africa and the Allies are trying to conquer Karelia. To keep the Axis from gaining a second front against Mother Russia, we need more soldiers.

To manage our battles we use the Warplanner. After you have signed up, you will gain access to it. That allows us to plan the events better. The battles will take place on Sundays at 5 pm. Training sessions will be on Fridays and Saturdays at 7.20 pm.

If you want to know more, you can always visit us at our 64 slot server ("FH Warzone Public 0.65" on 82.149.224.70:14567) and enjoy playing there! The campaign matches are held on an independent campaign server with another 64 slots.

For more answers visit our Homepage at http://www.fh-warzone.de. The page is still under construction but nearly finished. There, you'll find the link to the forum where you can join us and start a career at our army. Be it in a tank, an airplane or in the infantry... the choice of weapon is all yours!

We'd recommend you to have TeamSpeak available. And, although neither headset nor microphone are necessary, they sure help in the thick of battle. :)

And now let's head to the real news update for today. Last week we showed off the French army fighting on the Western Front - today we would like to present to you the Polish reinforcements that will arrive on the battlefield in 0.66!!

We have the Polish grenade wz. 1924 done by Montoya which will be a great help in clearing houses and bunkers.
 

Heavy air support has arrived, in the form of the PZL 37 Los medium bomber, another sweet model from Montoya. Thx to Montoya again the Polish armor will have the TKS tankette available for whatever is left by the bombers- armed with MG or 20mm cannon.

    

And as you can see with the next two ground vehicles, Montoya has been really busy lately. The wz. 29 Ursus and the C7P artillery tractor will provide additional light armored support.

    

With all this stuff the Polish Army might have a better chance to stop invading Axis forces. The German attack is heading deeper into the country to gain control over the important industrial areas. In the new map Eastern Blitz, that was designed by Armin Ace, you will be able either to try to stop the invaders or help the Wehrmacht to seize the Polish industrial centres.

    

    

    

    

    

We would like to thank for your interest and would be glad if you would have a look next week when it's time for another update. If you want to discuss this one you are welcome to do so in our public forums.
