installation is very confusing, second step is the confusing part though, what are you guys talking about take the Advance to Constact from .rar and copy it and replace it with the installed one, because it always crashes on the start up screen, do i need a fresh Install??
I know, we had a problem with the installer and this was the only way to fix it.
Ok u installed the beta. Normally in the beta.rar that u downloaded there should be an Advance to contact.exe file (not the installer).
If u have this, u need to copy this one file to your program files/steam/steamapps/common/empire total war and overwrite the existing advance to contact.exe
Then it should work perfectly
2 New maps are ready for this mod!
First is Desert Oasis
Info
A desert map with high hills, artillery will have a hard time getting on top of the hills, the oasis is the key point here. It is a map intended for 1 vs 1 with the possibility to expand to 2v2 or bigger.
Description
A Battle taking place in the center of afghanistan's desert, Both armies urgently need water to continue their patrol but there is only enough water in the oasis for 1 army. A confrontation is imminent to conquer the oasis.

Description
One army needs to reach the river if it is to continue it's patrol in the desert. The opposing forces however know this and are preparing to confront the enemy army at the riverside. The army that wins will gain access to the much needed water resource.

And guess what, this map was normally for a different mod but darkhorse found it so fitting for a scenario that happened in real life that I decided to bring it in this mod
So I present another new map
Sangin Fields
Info
A map in the middle of farmlands with alot of trees and possible hiding places. It is intended for 1v1 but like the other maps it is suited for bigger fights
Expect fast contact with enemy long range units!
Description
COMING SOON

i had a thought while playing the beta(i got it to work) until you get the new gun models in why not just use the dragoon carbine model for infantry with assualt rifles and smg's, and snipers keep the huge rifles, also why does the U.S. have 1 unit and its not very good, i tried it against 1 unit of taliban weakest unit and it only lost 2 men while i lost every single one of mine
We have not yet looked into such stuff, we are currently staging on trying to get custom rifles ingame but unsuccesfully.
We will look into your idea to implement it for now
We don't have any US units yet, we will have a final roster by new year and start implementing the us units from then on Be patient they will come
Also the GMG (the only unit you have for the US) is designed to counter vehicles and units, we don't expect it to wipe out infantry squads, only the taliban gmg is capable of this role
We might make it a little bit stronger though

I can reiterate, the American roster is on the verge of being confirmed and updated.
You should have expected this delay, America always shows up late for wars!
You guys managed to add models in it? :S
Falcon knows god personally
Indeed, there are 15 different small arms weapons for the British faction alone!
im guessing for the U..S. there is 12 or 13
16 actually, with the present roster. This will go down to 12 or 13 I think after the US Marines get their own AUPP.
I'm surprised the British have so many weapons. Off the top of my head I can't think of that many guns our army and special force use.
