Patch 0.5.1 due within the week. We are aware of a few bugs and working hard to fix them.
We strongly strongly encourage you to report any bug/problem you find =)

L85A2 turned out rather nice didn't it, we had a couple of problems as its a very small rifle, but conventional designs like the M16 won't have those issues (FAMAS and Steyr AUG will :O Sorry France and Australia & New Zealand fans, but as you can see we worked around it). We have a shortlist of 8 weapons we want to get in game. After those 8, get the rest in slowly, as well as those for other factions such as France.
why cant the modern age be like the 1700's with a short variety of weapons nowadays there thousands of varieties, YOU CANT CHOOSE!!!!
Patch 0.51 to fix the bugs will come soon! Expect a release tomorrow or thursday!

Surprises
Well, they wouldn't be surprises now would they.
Hey guys.
First of all, I'd like to say great mod, but it seems there's a problem with the installer. I can run it fine, but although it says it will install Advance to Contact ver 0.5, the .pack file it installs is not AtC 0.5, but it is AtC 0.1.
OK I see. BTW, how'd you guys get ammo to show up on the UK's unit cards? I ahven't seen any other mod so far for ETW that does that.
Oh yeah, and how do you play night battles? The 'evening' setting doesn't seem to work.

hey guys i know there arent any mod tools for empire but i had this idea, since this is about modern combat why not make it a modern era campaign in like far later releases, like add the nations that are possible, and make the far outer afghan regions taliban regions, and make middle eastern nations (Syria, Egypt, Iraq, afghan) all completly hostile to western nations (U.S., U.K., Canada, France, Netherlands, and Austria) this was an idea that came off the top of my head when i started thinking its a modern combat mod it doesnt have to be centered in Arabia because latin countries are fighting drug cartels, and China could be ingame cause they own the himalayes, there's a world of possibilities for a modern campaign
If the time comes where we are able to make a campaign, it will mostly likely be something much smaller scaled, Falklands, South Africa or Israel or something,
