 ABOUT
\|---|/

Winter Storm was a map I was creating as an experiment, seeing if I could get weather to look......well......cold.  And snowy.  I've lost count now, but I think it's my 9th map that's classed as 'completed', i.e. I didn't just stop when I got bored of it.

Anyway, it's a Conquest-Hybrid when playing in Conquest Mode, like Operation Aberdeen.  Even though it says Conquest-Assault up the top when you go to click 'Ready'.

The map features soldier kits lurking about the place, which I placed with my very own (autographs later, please  :P) BattleCraft 42 Kit Support.  Look under the "other files by RussianComrade" section up the top, it should have a link to it there if you're interested.  In addition, if you're playing in Conquest mode there'll be some extra tanks spawning at your main base if you capture either of the Bridge control points.

This is still v1, so a few things aren't quite finished, and at this point the AI isn't exactly the greatest.

I've also changed some of the game's files for this map.  

 - Instead of a 90-second delay before being damaged by water, you now have 10 seconds before you start losing health.  After all, it is cold.

 - The Jeep/Willy now has a 3rd position, a gunner that stands in the back with a Browning.

 - Engineers are more effective at repairing vehicles, since this map is reasonably tank-based.


Anyway, enjoy, and if you have any problems with this map please email me.  My email address is down the bottom.
