[MOD] Götterdämmerung

Götterdämmerung or Twilight of the Gods is the translation of the Old Norse phrase Ragnarök into German and one of Richard Wagner's final compositions. If refers to the end of all things, otherwise known as the Apocalypse.

What is the mod? Well, it depicts the final battles fought between Germany and the Soviet Union in the East and picks up directly following the Panzerkrieg campaign. I'd like to add the Western Allies as well at some point. However, I need to complete the playable German campaign followed by the playable Soviet campaign prior to even considering the inclusion of the Allies.

Background:

I started this back in March but never quite got around to completing the initial stages. I was working on a bunch of stuff for IL-2 BoX and the project fell to the wayside so I thought releasing it as is would hopefully garner some interest and force me to continue working on it.

What's currently included:

• Historical skins.
• Custom soundtrack.
• Custom splash screen.
• Historical German symbology and custom UI elements created in Photoshop (flags, icons, ect).


Skins - Included as of now are seven skins for the German forces, all of which are historical. Five for summer/spring/autumn and two for winter. Several are theatre specific (West) but I thought including all of them would give players more options as to how they'd like to customize their forces.

Current Status:

• Custom Commanders are complete.
• Operation and theatre specific units are almost complete.
• Still working on the initial campaign elements (Courland Pocket) which i'd like to have it out by mid-July. No promises however as this is the most time consuming aspect. I've also considered not releasing any campaign elements until a good portion is done. Though I'll leave that up to you guys with regards to the release schedule. That being intermittent or all at once.

I haven't been around the Matrix site in years, but its still apparently stuck in the 90's. What a joke. Anyway, here are the preview images.

EDIT - Jesus, I can't even post a single link. Forget it.
The site is pretty harsh for new users and links but after your account exists for sometime you will be able to post them.
For now if you have the images on your pc documents you can add them in at upload attachment (3 max per post).
Hope this works as i definitely am exited for what your mod looks like. :)

Best way to post (jpg) images is to use the 'Upload attachment'.
The image will display in the post and users won't need to open a link just to see the image.

Edit: Fabio beat me by 3 nano seconds.

Or, an admin can go and remove the restrictions from your account (due to a grand total of zero posts in this side of the fence). Like I just did :-)

Nope, you didn't. Those restrictions are still in place - Your post looks too spamy for a new user, please remove off-site URLs.

I just logged into the Matrix site (which I haven't done in years) and then logged into the Slitherine site at the same time, side by side. Honestly, how is this goat-rope possible and why haven't the accounts been merged on the admin side.

Götterdämmerung refers to the Last Days of the Wehrmacht.
I don't know if it is the case of this mod.

Thank you for your work.

Quick test :
- Blitzkrieg -> OK
- Sandstorm -> BUG :!: Impossible to purchase and deploy units, there are many units in reserve :?:

PS: I do not have a lot of time, I have a scenario to be finished

Thanks for sharing. But it seems to be basically another mod to change the German flags? And you should add some names to the provided skins, they're showing as "skin_09" etc. in the game.
