2002
4th December Added Sapper_Ds new maps for his up and coming AIF mod which is in testing at the moment. They are here.
15th November I have updated the links page slightly - removed a couple of dead ones and added two new ones. A Castle Wolfenstein WW1 mod and Mafis cc2 page (excellent if you play cc2 still). Also uploaded some new German 1918 Spring Offensive Operations by Andrew Wallace - check them out here.
30th October Its been a while since I posted any news but things have started moving again after a quiet summer. Firstly Mafi who runs an excellent cc2 site has been updating the cc2 mod. I have posted his files for download here. Secondly we are working again towards an update of the cc3 mod which we hope to have for you by Christmas. And thirdly we are possibly going to make a GI combat mod provided we can get the necessary tools. I still haven't given up hope of getting MMCC3 off the ground - I just need a network expert to look at my setup - fortunately my brother knows a thing or two about it, so when he next visits I will get him to have a look.
24th July I have added a new Medal of Honour page for some skins I have made for the game.
27th May Blimey is it really the 15th March since I posted news! I have added three new links to the links page - all good sites check them out. Work has again slowed on version 2 but slowly slowly progressing ( I feel like Haig on the Somme! Or Blackadder when Darling shows the General the model of the ground captured that day - its a yard square - 'Whats the scale?' says the General...'one to one' says Darling!!!!). A cc5 mod for Cambrai is also being considered but that would be some time off - next year perhaps. Military Gamer online have started a WW1 forum for the new games coming up and mods. Thats all the news - I promise to try to keep more upto date in the future!
15th March A new campaign made by Chrisbigdaddy has been posted. Its based on the exploits of the French Foreign Legion. Get it here
4th March Thanks to very talented Fish for the new trenchboards. I hope to be posting a page soon about the work on version 2 to keep you all interested!
25th February New map covering the Canadians in Passchendaele in 1917 - get it here. Another great map by the Kiwi!
19th February Not too much news! A new campaign has started - you will need the new files. Either get them from Diegrinders site or here. Work continues slowly on version 2. You may have seen Sapper_Ds superb weapons graphics at the forum. Data is getting there and most of the graphics are done.
16th January Happy New Year! Hope you all had a good Christmas and New Year wherever you are! As a late Christmas present to everyone I have completed a new map - Gheluvelt Chateau - get it here .Work is slowly progressing on version 2. I know we said we hoped to have it by Christmas but both Robat and I have had a number of things to deal with. I have eventually got in my new house and am in the process of getting broadband connection to run MMCC3. I can't give you any date for release of version 2 I'm afraid but just bear with us - we will get there eventually!

18th December Happy Birthday to my youngest daughter Rosie - 1 year old today!! MMCC3 has restarted - you need the new MMcc3 exe which you extract from the Eastern Front version on the MMCC3 site - follow the links from Diegrinders site. Gw legion goes from strength to strength - twenty members now. Diggin is working on v2 over Christmas and I am working on one new map and v2 graphics. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year to you all.
23rd November Well the first MMCC3 campaign was a great success - generated loads of interest. As we all know the Germans won. Sapper_D you really need to get out more - its summer time in Sydney! Here is the list of the maps required for the campaign. The new one starts on Sunday and you will need to go to Diegrinders site to get the new team files. Anyone can join in on any side at any time.
16th November Loads going on! The GW legion is now upto eight members - keep enlisting (Diggin' and Fish haven't yet!!) and also Diegrinders Multiplayer camapign is up and running. Nice one mate - its only being going one week but has generated loads of interest and is great fun. Heres the link to the newspaper The Great War Times.
7th November Added two new links - Diegrinders web site with the mutliplayer files and also the Great War legion site by CSO_Sbufkle to help you find on line opponants.
1st November One new map - Hill 60 for Gallipoli by Fish available for download - upto his normal superb standards. Multiplayer campaign is in testing and then we have to find a host. Expect it in a few weeks.
19th October One new map by me - Shell Green for Gallipoli - go here to get it. Plus a couple of battles made by Hicks here. Thanks for them Hicks. Diegrinder is busy working on the multiplayer campaign which will hopefully be up and running very soon. Big thanks to him for his hard work.
