└───────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
The plot of the game unfolds during the period of July 1942 - January 1943
and tells the story of one of the most dramatic episodes of World War II.
Featuring two detailed campaigns, "Stalingrad" will let the player take
command over Wehrmacht and lead the German forces into the city, then
switch to the Red Army and liberate the Soviet stronghold from the
occupants and obliterate the 6th Army under the command of Gen. Paulus. In
contrast to many other RTS games out there, each mission in "Stalingrad" is
created with historical authenticity in mind and with reference to the
actual place and time to real events that took place during the war.
Besides, the missions are created in such a way that campaigns give an
authentic picture of events at the theatre of war operations.
The Battle of Stalingrad became the turning point of World War II and one
of the largest battles in the Eastern Front. Combat operations were spread
over the territory of more than 100 sq. kilometers large, with over 2
million people involved in separate episodes on both sides. During the
Battle of Stalingrad, which took place over 50 years ago, everything was
put at stake. Historians believe that in 1942, the Battle of Stalingrad
was the decisive point for all humankind, since the outcome of it meant
victory or death for Wehrmacht.
NOTE: MYTH writes in their nfo-file that they ripped high- and low-textures,
but this is wrong, they ripped middle- and high-textures. So only the
low-textures are avaible, but the middle-textures whould easiely fit
in the gamerip too. And on NTFS drives the deltree command to delete
the temporary files do not work, this results in 1.4 GB not needed
files on the harddisc. Our addon removes these temporary files.
Example: (look into textures1.pak)
Myth Rip:
\Buildings\ussr\summer\_Airman_Dorm\1_c.dds -> 257 kb
\Buildings\ussr\summer\_Airman_Dorm\1_h.dds -> 257 kb
\Buildings\ussr\summer\_Airman_Dorm\1_l.dds -> 257 kb
Original:
\Buildings\ussr\summer\_Airman_Dorm\1_c.dds -> 257 kb
\Buildings\ussr\summer\_Airman_Dorm\1_h.dds -> 1.025 kb
\Buildings\ussr\summer\_Airman_Dorm\1_l.dds -> 513 kb
The MYTH rip has only the *_c.dds textures (low-resolution) included
and our addon adds the *_l.dds textures (middle-resolution) and
updates the high-resolution to middle. The high-textures are too big
to release as addon (250mb compressed).
Myth Rip with FAS Addon:
\Buildings\ussr\summer\_Airman_Dorm\1_c.dds -> 257 kb
\Buildings\ussr\summer\_Airman_Dorm\1_h.dds -> 513 kb
\Buildings\ussr\summer\_Airman_Dorm\1_l.dds -> 513 kb
NOTE 2: We included the ripped EXTRA.exe in this addon too. It has some
extra pictures and informations about the game history.

FAS is trying to make rips and addons that the other groups don't do.
We try to do no english addon dupes. This means, if there are no difference
between the english and the german/swedish version we do no addons. So take
the english addon then.
We do not send any kind of missing files or releases. Don't ask where to
find our releases! We do not password or encrypt our releases, others do
that!
