Red Orchestra: Ostfront 41-45 Comes to Tactical Gamer!

**Apophis** · 02-24-2006, 10:41 AM

Fight in the theatre of war that changed the world forever. Battle alongside your compatriots on some of the most inhospitable environments of the Eastern Front in Red Orchestra: Ostfront 41-45 RO places you in the most realistic WWII first-person multi-player combat to date on the PC, allowing the player to fight through some of the most intense combat of the war. You can play as infantry, using a wide range of infantry weapons, or crew one of the many armoured combat vehicles available in the game, from half-tracks all the way through to the most famous German and Soviet heavy tanks. You can engage the enemy with everything from your bayonet at close quarters up to the massive 122mm cannon on the Soviet IS-2. And if that isn't enough, find an officer and a radio to call in thunderous artillery strikes to shake the enemy loose.

Tactical Gamer is pleased to announce our intent to add this new addition to our community. We have already provisioned a new Dual 3.0 XEON server with 2GB of memory to launch this game. The server should complete the provisioning process within the next 12 hours and we will begin preparing the architecture to host the game.

Red Orchestra: Ostfront 41-45 certainly seems like a quality addition to the Tactical Gamer lineup. We have already added a full forum structure for the game and will be adding it to the front page menus this weekend.
