Insurgency Mod for HL2

[Jeremy]

Hey guys. I'd just like to inform you all of a project in the works for Half-Life 2, that is based on modern and near past/future events throughout the world, called Insurgency. Insurgency's project lead is in the Canadian military, and got the inspiration to create the mod from his bootcamp, so as you can imagine the mod's focus is realism and to some extent for the conventional forces - a simulation.

Insurgency is an upcoming mod for Half-Life 2. You can check out the new website @ http://www.insurgencymod.net. Press release is below.

"The modern battlefield has witnessed many engagements between Guerrilla and Conventional forces. Insurgency will bring these fights to an online multiplayer battlefield using Valve's Source Technology from Half-Life 2. Engage in past, present, and fictional infantry battles throughout the world. From the Balkans to Iraq to Chechnya, join as either an Unconventional or Conventional team that caters to both casual and tactical gamers."

There's a lot of new info over at the website (http://www.insurgencymod.net). If you havent really seen or heard of the mod before, feel free to check out the mod tour (http://www.insurgencymod.net/tour.php). The media is below :)
