    Watch in this video how battles will look in the upcoming massive update of the mod.
    Notice especially the AI behaviour, the melee mechanics and the new realistic effects.
    To enjoy this kind of battles before the full release, you can upgrade the old version DMUC with the following open beta:
    Version 8.0 Platinum Beta

    PS: The YouTube video was removed because it was more than 15 minutes and I have to verify my account with my mobile phone to overcome this...

    Dont think so, im not logged into facebook but I can view it.

    Looks great Darth, as always; tho this particular release probably has me the most excited out of all your work to date. I really love the campaign map side of Empire, but was never crazy about that time-frame militarily, and the battles in vanilla and early mods were wonky and too easy. Not the case anymore, I get annoyed in campaigns now for not getting enough battles. Excited for the release.

    Added a YouTube Link and a ModDB upload will also follow.
    As soon as possible I will write information about the progress that has been made and will summarise here gradually all the new changelog.
    Thank you for your appreciation.

    I don't really like the way formations overlap each other. There is a good example of this at 3.00, as the enemy advances, and at 3.38, as the camera pans.
    I find this happens a lot in 7.0 too with fights with the AI. Units always merge and mix together instead of mantaining a clean line.

    Forgive me if all I have voiced so far have been criticisms. I do love this mod and I think I have just been unfair in only voicing my complaints and not my praise.

    Looks great, the AI uses fire by rank. I don't remember the AI doing that before. Anyway how long before release? Any guesses? Until then FoTS will keep me busy.

    I have had my STW2 uninstalled long before, just waiting for the brand new DM 8! After watching the video, it make my heart itch than ever. Good job and thanks for the gorgeous work!

    Hey Darth it appears that "they" have removed your YouTube video as being "too long"...hmmm never heard that before. Strange things happening on YouTube since the Google takeover...

    wait, wait, wait
    does the AI seriously advance in waves now? instead of one full frontal attack?

    Not to be the of the day, but it looks as if enemy units sometimes just run through your lines as if they did not notice them (notice the dutch-maratha battle in the platinum video)
    i don't know if I saw it right or if it has already been noticed, I'd just think I should share it
