I thought I'd post this here for people like me who are into WW2 1st person shooters.
An online tournement is starting its 12 campaign soon for the BF1942 mod Forgotten Hope. If you never played the mod or heard of it the website it is here http://forgottenhope.bf1942files.com/main.php?lang=english
BFE World at War is a tournament-style campaign game for Battlefield 1942 Forgotten Hope mod. Unlike a clan ladder or other online tournament, World at War players will participate in a simulated war, complete with commanding officers, divisions, and a grand strategy map showing the progress of the war from week to week. Think of it as a cross between a strategy board game and a first-person shooter, where you can immerse yourself in realistic WW2 environments and strategy. Commanders also have to choose what equipment their army can fight with based on a points system and historical availability of the equipment.
How BFE-World at War works
Players will join an army and be assigned to one of that army's divisions. Each army will have a commanding officer whose job it is to make strategic decisions on where his divisions will fight, and once a week the divisions will fight battles with the opposing army on maps representing the territory being fought for. The progress of the war is displayed on a strategy map where territories change color based on which army controls them.
These battles are not just little one hour clan matches. They're full-fledged battles, each lasting 12 hours, during which time players may come and go, so that you may play as much or as little as you please. Units coordinate using the WaW TeamSpeak server during battle and plan ahead for each battle in their Division's forum. Ranks are based on merit and commitment. Do your job and you can rise on up and might even get the chance to lead 20 to 30 guys to victory or defeat. Best of all, orders are followed and everyone follows the plan!
Registration for the tournement is opening soon where you can join the axis or allies at http://bfewaw.com/ Also there is a promo video here which gives you some of idea of what it's all about http://www.kimo.mhogue.com/WaW/Wawpromo_.wmv
