BF 1942 + RTR "Strasbourg" Map Release by Black Mamba

A couple of weeks ago we have been present to you the Battlefield 1942 Custom Map Strasbourg made by Classical Modder (aka Black Mamba), springs from the bfmods.com Community. After a time of work on this fantastic map the release is during. Highlight of this Map is the moveable Armored Train, which you can move up and down for tactical defend or attack movings. For all Battlefield 1942 Vanilla Custom Map freaks more than a must have to get. After Western War, Eve of Destruction, FHSW, FinnWars it is the 3rd "Mod" where you can use a Train or Armored Train in action.

Developer statement:

A vid showcasing the modded Controllable Train for Battlefield 1942. This train was made by exe/eYe.ris, and is officially in the Forgotten Hope Secret Weapons mod, but Black Mamba/{SoH} -=Diamondback=- ported it to vanilla BF1942, and added in the custom map Strasbourg. The train can only go 2 directions: front or back, and players can ride and man the guns in the back train cars.
