Moving on...
Due to recent developments, the introductory mock campaign to Eastern Crisis is hereby ended. The tournament will take two weeks to focus on known issues, then registration for the first official campaign will open.
More news regarding the first official campaign will be announced as it developed.
Important Server Updates
Due to an error with the EU server, all battles will be taking part on the NA server today.
Times Remain the same.
EDIT - The NA server has also gone down. All of us at EC are deeply apologetic and are tryign to get a workaround sorted. In the meantime please go and play on the Mikes Marauders server @ hob.mikesmarauders.com:28960
Please rest assured these rediculous servers will be up and running again for next week

Big News
So here it is folks the official mod change announcment!
As of now we are offically teamed up with the Heat of Battle mod crew.
Myself and the lead developer at Heat of Battle, BritishBulldog1, have just finished an interview with Jock Yitch of www.bashandslash.com , which I will post up when it is available, telling the whole world of COD4 this news, so expect big things!
So what will this mean for Eastern Crisis?
Well the most exciting change will be the addition of the HoB Domination gametype, bringing similar experiences to those in Victory in Europe, as well as those already available in COD4.
Also we will have the mod team in house, helping us at every turn, increasing the proactive management that you all know and love :D
Here is BB1 on HOB4:
HoB is an adapted form of Domination, truthfully, it's the original Domination gametype for Call of Duty that was adapted by Graymatter prior to being absorbed by Treyarch.
FEATURES
* - HoB Capture logic
* - end round on all flags captured
* - Wave respawn (adjustable timer - standard is 1 - 15 seconds)
* - Remove weapon crosshairs
* - 3Dcapture icons removed
* - Incoming grenade indicators disabled
* - don't spawn as spectator when killed.
* - Remove health regeneration
* - Localization
* - Objective capture requirements dynamically adjusted per team instead of by total server population. - 2 - 4 players needed to cap, depending on number of players
* - Separate round and map time limits.
* - Remove rank and names from over players heads.
* - Kill points do not count towards team score
* - Persistant ranking between HoB servers
* - 5 kill streak for UAV, 10 for airstrike and 15 for Helicoptor
* - 10 seconds to cap an objective, irrespective of players needed (looking to reduce this to 7 or 8 seconds)
The servers will be migrated to HOB as soon as I can get it done, and we will be resuming normal service with Heat Of Battle campaign Zero this coming Saturday.
