![[Image: 3459B122FE504E419ACEE112ECE6FB57.jpg]](http://www.matrixgames.com/forums/upfiles/32195/3459B122FE504E419ACEE112ECE6FB57.jpg) Campaign Series: The Forgotten Battles 2.0 Campaign Series: The Forgotten Battles is a mod focusing on minor nations, and the battles they fought, buried in annals of history, but forgotten no more! Quote:When installed, this Add-on modification will absolutely not affect any stock or custom scenario. Worth a repeat: none of the existing games you have or are about to start will be affected. Forgotten Battles 2.0 continues to boldly go where no Campaign Series scenario has gone before: The mod has its roots on East Front, where in its previous versions it added a couple of new nations such as Allied Finland, and enhancing other nations such as early war Poland units and adding Bulgarian troops and partisans. Not just about minor nations, 'What-Ifs' were supported also in a form of adding an Allied Germany, and migrating the French, UK and US OoBs from West Front to East Front. Some of the early content from the various Forgotten Battles 1.x versions made it to MCS 2.00 UPGRADE, while other content remains proprietary to this mod, such as the medical units that are still not ready for prime time. New East Front Game Content Forgotten Battle 2.0 proudly presents the World Premiere of the first 2D Project results to EF. New and enhanced graphics and a thorough upgrade to their OoB is provided for: - EF Russia - EF Germany - EF Italy - EF Rumania, - EF Hungary - EF Finland, - EF Slovakia, and - EF Poland, including the addition of LWP organizations and units for a full 1939-1945 unit roster timeline. New West Front Game Content While 2.0 is still mostly about East Front, we are looking forward to try more new things out with West Front and Rising Sun too. Included in the WF add-on are: - WF Polish Army in Britain and WF Polish Army in France OoBs. New Rising Sun Game Content Rising Sun? Stay tuned!
