BF 1918: Attack Of The Dead Men

Greetings to our many fans, we of the Battlefield 1918 Mod Development Team hope you have enjoyed our effort to make Battlefield 1918 the mod it is today. With this in mind it is time to finally show off one of the new maps that will be coming in the next update to Battlefield 1918, namely Osowiec Fortress which became the scene of one of the most famous battles of the entire war, namely the Attack of the Dead Men!

Although attacked multiple times by the Germans since September of 1914, Osowiec Fortress stood as a symbol of Russian tenacity against overwhelming odds and this would be most clearly demonstrated by the 3rd battle for the Fortress on August 6th of 1915. With this attack the Germans deployed poison gas in the hopes of destroying the Russian garrison who did not have gas masks at the time. Amazingly between 60 to 100 of the 900 Russian soldiers were able to survive using improvised protection made out of their own shirts and launched a counter attack that drove back the 7,000 to 8,000 Germans who opposed them inflicting heavy losses on the Germans in the process. This event would forever be remembered as the famous Attack Of The Dead Men and it is this specific engagement that will be depicted in Battlefield 1918. This map will naturally be the first gas map to feature Russian soldiers and as such will feature a special gas variant of the Russian forces.

As a final note it should be mentioned that this Battle has been requested enough that we believe it deserves its own trailer, as such see for yourself what the new map will look like in action!
