2 Standalone expansions or (side sequels !?) have been announced for Men of War. (although there are rumors of a Men of War 2 this is not it yet )

For the ones who passed this gem : Men of War is a Tactical RTS, WW2, realistic (COH would be arcade in comparison).It s the 3rth in a series started with the excellent Soldiers Heroes of WW2, followed by Faces of War


My money is on Assault Squad. since it will introduce important modifications including a skirmishalike mode, re-focus on infantry tactics, and multiplayer - this will be more of a sequel where Vietnam will be an Expansion (like MoW Red Tide)

Start inviting those lads mates

We're pleased to announce that Men of War: Assault Squad will be released to an open beta status (that means anyone can participiate) once this group reaches 10,000 members! It may seem like a lot, but with help from our biggest proponent - you and all of our other fans, we're confident we can make it happen! While the game remains in a closed beta state for the time being, we are still giving away testing accounts for members of the DMS Steam group. Invite your friends, tell your buddies and stick around in both groups and you could be playing before you know it!

Sadly, I doubt it will reach 10000 members. MoW is hardly a very known, mainstream game.

It's 10000 members for the MoW:AS group, not the DMS one.

How is "Men of War: Assault Squad - Open Beta at 10,000 Members!" vague? Beta goes open once the group reaches 10,000 members. It's a closed beta right now.

Maybe he isn't sure which 10,000 they are talking about. Is it the 9,999+1 or are they talking about 10,001 minus 1... Or 11,000 minus 1,000. Or -100,000 + 110,000. It's all getting very complicated here.

Moosenoodles, once the beta is opened up, they'll probably have a web page somewhere to sign up.

Soldiers Heroes of WW2 and these sequels have been by far my most favorite RTS/Tactical games.Always loved the fact you could take direct control of a unit,pick up weapons,refuel and rearm.Can't wait,especially for the nam version!

I just downloaded the missions packs off ModDB.Adds a lot more to the game.The missions are very challenging and there is a ton of carnage much like Company of Heroes action in some if them.I also got Price Of Terrorism mod but havent tested it yet.

I just hope it will be more like Soldiers - smaller scenarios, no frontline warfare anymoar! And more vehicles than in MoW.

3200+ last time I checked, and DMS forums are still down!
Any Intel on a release date?

I remember Men of war was schedule for a September 2008 release and got kicked to March 2009, but then there was a MP open beta going for months already...

Well, surprised noone leaked it yet. You only need the install file and patch to install and play the beta.

You need a key code for the latest round of betas (beti ?)

Also, in paying to be a beta tester you get the dlc map pack for free.

The ... of war series has to be one of the most underated rts' out there.
