Red Orchesta PC Game

These are some screenshots I took a while back while playing an Open Realism night on the 29th Division Clan's Darkest Hour Server.

Darkest Hour ("DH") is an absolutely free WWII modification of Red Orchestra ("RO"), a WWII First Person Shooter PC game depicting combat on the Eastern Front; The DH Team modded RO to a D-Day / Normandy Breakout / Battle of the Bulge setting.

This game took place on a map called Stavelot, during the first days of the Battle of the Bulge in December 1944.

DH has a little bit larger Team than Iron Europe; hopefully we match the efforts they made in creating this awesome Mod:


Sergeant Hart issues orders to the men in his platoon using a Voice Over The Internet microphone (VOIP):



The men of the 6th S.S. Battalion move out to assault the Belgian town of Stavelot:



Our platoon advances along the road to Stavelot using single file formation:



We are pinned under an old stonewall by the defending Americans! My Player Character takes a bullet for the Reich and dies his glorious death. Game over for the rest of the match for me (in Realism mode, you only are allowed one death; no reinforcements are allowed):
