Its high-time I tried to pimp this wonderful, amazing, brilliant mod thats removed CS from my life :)

In short, its a realistic modern warefare mod, with over 30(!) weapons and other nice features. When you first enter the game you pick a loadout (weapons and equipment all cost a certain number of credits, of which every player gets the same amount), and a skill (eg Marksmanship, Field Medic, Artillery, Stealth etc), extra skills can be picked as your score increases. Your loudout and/or selection of skills can be changed when you die.
Most maps are based on either capturing "control points" (flags at strategic points on the map, capture them all to win), or "seek and destroy" missions (destroy an object in the opposing team's half of the map). The map is won when a team runs out of reinforcements (very similar to BF1942). Teams start with a set level of reinforcements (these can be replenished by players using the Field Medic skill the medevac corpses from the battlefield :D) which are reduced every time a player respawns, when the reinforcements reach zero, your out of respawns and death puts you out of the game, wiping out the other team in this way means victory.  

Deployable bipods (think Day Of Defeat), parachutes, mortars, Medevac helicopters, claymore mines, realistic weapon models and recoil, prone stances, and much much more...

All I ask is that you give it a try with an open mind, as its nothing like CS. You'll thank me later..... ;)
