I'm all about galactic conquest, but that's probally just cause I'm a Star Wars nerd.
I'm working on solving the gas crisis.

BF1942 is cool, BF1942 road to rome is amazing, BF1942 secret weapons is crazy (with NO BOTS), but BF1942 mods are what ? borried, crazy, BS, ..... ? and anyone has trying one day these mods ? ....

my vote goes for Galactic conquest, with DCF as a close second
That's right, these posts are the result of the dedicated work of me and a room full of monkeys working diligently on our typewriters.

FH for me, i think. Cant get GC to work.

DC/DCF/DCX is nice but extremely unbalanced in some ways. RPG7 reload is considerably longer than AT4 reload, iraqis generally seem to have more unprecise weapons which direly lack the punch needed.
AA-Rockets, so to speak SA7 and Stinger dont seem to work. Ok theyre giving a fire effect and some sound, only nothing happens in target area. ;)

In addition, the weapon models and physix are simply too "patriotic". Sorry, i would never believe that 5.56x39 has more power than 7.62x51 ammo.
Sure, its a game, sure if you got all stat from real stuff, americans would run home whenever a SU25 oder Mi24 would join the frag but DC is just too much "iraqis have bad weapons" for a balanced game.

I´d prefer silent heroes for "actual" warfare though they never managed to kill the little Bot-Bug with unlimited AT (Human players only have one round). ;)

EOD im trying at the moment, seems well balanced at least but the green grass gets on my nerve sometimes. ;) Good for snipers and lurkers, i believe. ;)

BF40k is definitely ONLY for Warhammer fanatics. pain to play though well done.

Sadly, the GI-Joe mods have been killed by hasbro lawyers. sniff. were sooo nice... :(

Halo-Mod, or "homefront" as its called is a vivid image what to do to spoil any game. unprecise weapons, unbalanced loadouts... Nice GFX aint the only thing a game needs.

Theres a Stargate-Mod, too - only it doesnt work on my machine - except the title screen.

BF1918 is nice but if youre used to Infantry standing a chance against tanks, youll be frustrated soon enough. Style and Play are quite well done though, give it a try. ;)
