This is GREAT news!

Because the mod is bound to be one of the very best.
Because I think we're all dying to know what/how any new event/ai writing stuff is going to be in 1.03, and by picking over this mod, we'll all learn how it is to be done.. correctly!
I mean, it is bound to have all the new stuff used within it, and the easiest way to learn modding, is to have a working game, and watch the events in action, and then read through them to learn how it is done. And if FT is doing it, then it's going to be correct.

And its good for the overall future of Darkest Hour.

Updated 1st post

[Kannon]

- Units get upgraded as you reinforce them.

Wasn't that part of 1.02 patch?

- Allowed HoS and HoG changes (Do not use as a major country if you want consistent game).

What does "consistent game" means in this case?

Other changes sound great, especially combat chances.

[Fernando Torres]

Yes it was.
Consistent meaning that some events are tied with specific HOS/HOG such as Hitler.

[warpedmind]

sounds great, but i dont have the 1.03 beta

and no beta in the tech support forum

[Fernando Torres]

Yes, the beta is not out yet.

[clone1337]

You release the mod and not the Gameversion, the mod requires. So i guess, Beta 1.03 will be released in some days? Hope so, please!!

[jpbfr]

Is this mod going to be as hard as the original ?? Back then, I couldn't get past France as Germany. Also ,what do you mean by "unfair difficulty levels"? I loved WIF , can't wait for the second

I hope so too. Before the end of the month if all goes well.

It will be harder than DH Full. I will gradually improve and adjust it as time and version pass.

[Oorlog]

Yes, the beta is not out yet.

That is just cruel!

p.s. before i forget, what about whites vs. reds mod, is it still being considered to be finished one fine day?

I have no idea, I have not heard from its developers for a while.

[Oorlog]

Oh, i thought you were (one of) the dev(s).

Ho, leave it to a Frenchman to provoke and tease.

Yes I was thinking the same thing, that this really means that the beta patch will be released very soon!

Wrong assumption.

If you want to see the beta soon, please help here: http://forum.paradoxplaza.com/forum/...he-translation

Back on topic:
Let me know if you have any softcodding suggestion.
Only 1933 scenario is playable. The mod revolves around Germany, the most played country, although every country remains playable.

[Fernando Torres]

Based on an excellent idea from Andrea, I just implemented this:

- Added new 'Campaign Goals' system for Germany. At the start of Polish, French and Russian campaigns, an event will give you the opportunity to gamble on your success and win the reward. However, if you fail, you will receive the appropriate punishment!
