Mod Announcement

[Kalo]

How are you all? My name is Michael 'Kalo' Steele and today I will be introducing you to the Band of Brothers modification for Half-Life 2:

The Band of Brothers Mod is based on the real life events that took place in the lives of the men of Easy Company, 506th PIR Regiment, 101st Airborne, during WWII. The mod will accompany the elite airborne soldiers of Easy through the horrors of war that Easy encountered throughout their European Campaign. You will re-fight some of the most significant and epic battles of the war. From the training they endured in Georgia to Hitler's Eagles Nest prepare yourself for one of the most sought after modifications for many games, Band Of Brothers.

The modification will be planned and developed to portray the battles Easy Company experienced as accurately as possible. Our team of Historical Advisors is hard at work digging up immense amounts of information to aid us in our very detailed approach to development. We strive for realism, and ethnicity too immerse you into battle.

We’ll recreate Easy’s battlefields with extreme accuracy. We’ll stick to the historical aspect of the modn by drawing from scenes from the hit HBO Series 'Band of Brothers' and the novel by Stephen E. Ambrose into the mod to allow the player to relate to the battles. Our team is planning every little detail meticulously all the way down to how you read and saw the men carry themselves in the story.

We have many features planned for this mod as well as some that are still being thought out.

We hope to provide the player with a unique gaming experience filled with intense adrenaline rushing battles. The mind-blowing special effects and sounds will add to the realism and intensity of the battles. Our battlefields will be 'open' instead of having the player being confined to a single path that he or she must take to accomplish a mission. The whole gaming environment of this mod will be tuned to the senses with realistic sounds, sound effects, and visuals. It will be a true masterpiece of the senses and the ultimate gaming experience.
