Battlefield 1918: The Guns of August

Greetings and welcome everyone to a news update regarding Battlefield 1918. For a start we are pleased to inform you all that while we have been quiet in the past few months, work has been done in making the new V3.3 update, especially when it comes to the topic of new maps. But before we get to the new battles players will be able to take part in, it may be prudent to show one of the 2 new factions coming to V3.3, the French Zouaves!

French Zouaves

Formed from French settlers in colonial North Africa, these troops had a noteworthy reputation long before the war. In fact in the 19th century, soldiers from other nations in both Europe and North America formed their own Zouave formations inspired by these troops.

While a new faction is all well and good, one may also be interested to note that the Zouaves will also be carrying a brand new LMG into combat as well, specifically the Hotchkiss M1909 Benét–Mercié!

Hotchkiss M1909 Benét–Mercié

Utilized by several Entente nations including not just France but also Britain, Italy, Belgium, and the United States among others, this weapon gained a reputation for being accurate if complex to maintain.

With all of this covered now is a good time to move on to new maps and the first map to cover today is the map featuring the Zouaves, specifically the Battle of Saint-Gond Marsh.

Battle of Saint-Gond Marsh

Part of the much larger 1st Battle of the Marne in September of 1914, this engagement saw Entente troops hold off German attacks on the Eastern flank of the lines. A breakthrough here could have enabled the Germans to even potentially surround and cut off French and British forces from Paris. For this reason it was critical for the French and Zouave troops fighting to stop the Germans and when possible even counter-attack.

On the topic of maps featuring french forces we should now move on to the next map to showcase, specifically the Siege of Maubeuge.

Siege of Maubeuge

Fought over from late August to early September of 1914, the forts of Maubeuge denied German troops access to vital railroads that they needed to help supply and transport troops on the Western Front. For this reason, German forces resolved to shell the forts into submission with their heavy artillery, including Krupp 420mm Big Berthas. Although the Germans would eventually take Maubeuge on the 7th of September, the 1st Battle of the Marne had by then already begun and the defenders of Maubeuge were at least successful in tying down valuable German troops at this key point in the war.

With the history of Maubeuge out of the way it is now time to see a 3rd new map, this time based on the Battle of Kitchners' Wood.

Battle of Kitchners' Wood

1.) Basic for the new players: Download or Download or Download

2.) Battlefield 1918 v3.2: Download

3.) Battlefield 1918 v3.2b Patch: Download

Part of the much larger 2nd Battle of Ypres in the Spring of 1915, Kitcheners' Wood itself was a counter-attack at night by Canadian troops in order to fill the gap left by fleeing Entente forces in the face of the first poison gas attacks made by the Germans on the Western Front. Despite extremely heavy losses in the woods, Canadian forces ultimately prevailed in their efforts.

With all these new features and maps fans may be unsurprised to hear that a new trailer has become available as well, which you can watch in the link below. Some attentive viewers may even spot the 2nd new faction making it's way to Battlefield 1918 as well.

With all of this news we at the Battlefield 1918 Development Team hope that you are as excited as we are and that you will continue to look forward to the day V3.3 gets released. Until then we thank you for your time and hope you have a good day.

FHSW Mapping: New Map Giza!

Jan Paul a.k.a. DALlDA (developer) from the fhsw-europe.com been working for a couple of months and finally finished his FHSW map called Giza.

Originally it is custom BF1942 map which is most remarkable for the Pyramides objects and unique vehicle Katyusha with V1 rocket. Those objects were not made by me, however since they existed only in this map he wanted to keep them.

So, basically it's almost 100% infantry map, giant city in Cairo outskirts with narrow streets and slum labyrinths. He used all his fantasy and added many secret and underground ways and rooms, as well as tens of custom kits all over the map - MGs, sniper rifles, flamethrowers, AT guns, expacks, and some more.

Obviously historical side is weak, this is 'if-' map, I placed it in 1944 just because of late-war vehicles. Sides are UK (defending) vs Germany (attacking).
Although the map is almost 100% inf, he added SW tanks for both sides (maus+sturmtiger vs tortoise+AVRE), but since he don't know how they would work in multiplayer maybe he would remove them.

FHSW 0.611 Conquest only Mod Server:

The second Server runs the Battlefield 1918 v3.2b and Eve of Destruction v2.51 (Vietnam) Mods in Conquest Mode, without COOP Bots. But usually this both Mods have Bot COOP support:

Also, flags placing were quite random, maybe they should be moved too. Adding push mode is also an option, for now all flags except one are recappable and not ordered.
Dalida HOPE EVERYTHING WORKS FINE AND MAP WILL WORK FOR YOU!
