New Community Maps, Ninh Phu

The community Map, Ninh Phu, has been announced as the winner of the modding contest. The map is still a work in progress so far, however, the new addition should bring great fun.

M1 and M2 Carbines
Along with this release, you will see new weapon additions! These additions will be for both the Northern and Southern factions. The M1 and M2 Carbines will now be a playable weapon of choice.

M1: “The semi-automatic M1 Carbine boasts a 15 round magazine and a long history of use since WWII.”

 

M2: “The M1’s younger brother, the M2, has a shorter history but features both semi-automatic and automatic firing modes, and a newer 30 round magazine.”
