James McKenzie-Smith Senior Member Registered: 01/29/01 Posts: 3443 Loc: Vancouver, BC, Canada	http://www.deepsilver.com/en/game-view/view/game/accessall/iron-front/ http://www.gamershell.com/companies/deep_silver/853722.html In a nutshell, the game is a simulation of combat between the forces of the Third Reich and the Soviet Union in the summer of 1944, using a license of the ArmA 2 engine. Here are some screenies: http://www.gamershell.com/static/screenshots/25558/553444_full.jpg http://www.gamershell.com/static/screenshots/25558/553446_full.jpg http://www.gamershell.com/static/screenshots/25558/553448_full.jpg http://www.gamershell.com/static/screenshots/25558/553452_full.jpg http://www.gamershell.com/static/screenshots/25558/553450_full.jpg

Action on the Russian Front. Of course, that is not to say that modders could not do this; but just because modders could do it, does not mean that they actually are doing it.

Magnum Lifer Registered: 01/27/03 Posts: 25487 Loc: Naples, Florida	no, it's a stand alone game...from what I understand... they bought a license to use the ArmA2 engine...again, from what I understand... but a good point... why should we pay for this when modders can do it? That will be a question when released. _________________________ Magnum "Every time I hear/read "Free to Play" I know were going to get screwed in the end with micro-transactions.

NoUseForAName Hotshot Registered: 11/02/04 Posts: 5532 Loc: Colorado	It says that it's using the OpArrowhead engine specifically; which is quite an improvement over Arma2. Hopefully with some better physics/animations it will be a good one. Those screenshots look great!
