CMP's 17th FH2 Campaign: The Unyielding Has Ended!

[Quicksilver]

The 17th FH2 Campaign: The Unyielding Has Ended -
Congratulations to the Axis on their win!

From all of the Committee, Admins and Moderators we want to thank everyone
who took part in our seventeenth FH2 campaign.

Yet again another FH2 campaign is over, and what a campaign it has been! Up until the final battle, the scores swung wildly between Allied and Axis taking the lead, and, with just a 41 point difference going into Battle #10 at Tornio, the campaign could have gone either way.

In the end, a strong finish from Axis secured the victory, but we can all agree that the campaign felt incredibly balanced throughout, with a lot of fun maps and some great experiences.

The next campaign will take us back to the Pacific and will start some time in September 2025, so keep checking the forums and Discord for further news!

Some interesting statistics from the 17th campaign:

• In total there were nearly 55,000 kills over the course of the 10 battles (including team kills) - an average of around 5,431 kills per battle.
• The top tank in this campaign with over 1,750 kills was the T-34/76, with the BT-7 in a distant second with 612 kills.
• The Lavochkin La-5 ruled the skies with over 160 kills while the MiG-3 took second place.
• There were 270 close range kills made with bayonets, knives, entrenchment tools and spades, with bayonets being the favoured melee weapon.
• 279 players were unlucky enough to step on an anti-personnel mine during the campaign.
• 101 anti-tank mines were used to destroy vehicles and tanks over the course of 10 battles.

A Big Thank You To Everyone
Who Yet Again Made Another Campaign Possible
 

Our HQ's, CO's And SL's

Thank you to all those that helped to lead armies and squads in this campaign.

Kerst - CptBocquier - Blander
Pr0z4c - dumbdPunk - Vlasov - lelik156 - ZZZkam1kadzeZZZ - genp - TomTom39 -
Erwin - knokworst - Haraldt - Belzebuth - GeJota - wanchekid

Without you volunteering to help lead, we would not have been able to run this campaign!


Mapping and Mapping Support

• Papillon, Geopat, Watchtower, Pr0z4c, king_tigernator, CptBocquier, Blander, Vlasov and Ayrton

Our amazing group of dedicated volunteers has once again generously devoted their personal time to create the maps used in this campaign. Despite balancing families, jobs, and other commitments, they consistently manage to prepare these maps in time for our events.

This team has played a crucial role in ensuring the maps are ready for training and battles. Some members have created new maps from scratch, while others have enhanced existing maps to meet high standards suitable for our campaigns. Their tremendous effort has been instrumental in getting the maps ready for this initiative, and we extend our heartfelt gratitude for their hard work!

Without these talented mappers, we wouldn't have access to such amazing custom campaigns and would instead rely on public maps, hoping they function well in an organized setting. We also appreciate those who have contributed by introducing interesting vehicles, player models, weapons, and buildings to the campaigns.

We are in need of more volunteers to learn map-making and assist in creating new maps or updating existing ones. If you're interested, please let us know, and we will provide resources to help you get started.

 

Game Servers and Teamspeak

• kummitus

kummitus is a key individual in keeping the servers and communication platforms running seamlessly, offering vital assistance to Papillon and the mappers as they develop and refine the maps for our campaigns.

Without his expertise in handling the technical aspects of the campaigns, including the communication tools and forums, many of the features that enhance our campaigns would not exist. We are truly thankful for all his hard work!

 

Forums, Graphics, Social Media and Community Support

• RAnDOOm
• Sir_Kowskoskey
• Hawk
• RayderPSG
• Erwin

RAnDOOm is essential in organizing our campaigns, handling everything from setting up forums and the campaign interface to managing medals, advertisements, and social media promotions. He also provides valuable support to officers and HQ by facilitating forum access.

When we kick off a campaign and open up registration, you can count on RAnDOOm's extensive preparations to ensure everything is in place and on schedule. His contributions are vital in helping us meet the demanding timelines for our biannual campaigns.

Sir_Kowskoskey, RayderPSG, and Hawk dedicate themselves to engaging with various language regiments and players, encouraging them to step into leadership positions while keeping an eye on potential player counts and faction preferences for each campaign. Their efforts in coordinating with HQ and officers to ensure seamless operations are a part of the reason why our FH2 campaigns are so successful!

Hawk and Erwin take charge of creating the eye-catching campaign advertisements (Hawk's designs are always creative and beautifully made!) and the immersive map loading images, which often include thought-provoking WW2 quotes. Their creativity adds those finishing touches, to our campaigns and the maps.

 

Map Balancing and Feedback

• Hawk
• RayderPSG
• Ayrton

Hawk and RayderPSG tackle the demanding and often underappreciated responsibility of ensuring a fair balance among weapons, vehicles, and aircraft on campaign maps. Even in the face of regular feedback regarding weapon balance, they always do their best to research and check the loadouts before each battle is played. A special shoutout to Ayrton for his input regarding historical accuracy and potential loadouts in this campaign too.

Unseen by many, they always participate in thorough discussions about map content, consistently emphasizing balance and steering clear of personal biases, whether they are in the heat of battle or leading a squad. We are immensely grateful to them for their commitment to creating a level playing field for all participants!

 

AND FINALLY A MASSIVE THANK YOU TO YOU, THE PLAYERS WHO JOINED OUR CAMPAIGN!

We are thrilled to see that so many of you consider CMP a friendly space to connect and enjoy gaming with others who share your interests.

Our goal is to keep nurturing this community, broadening the variety of games we explore, and empowering members to spearhead the introduction of new games for everyone to experience together.

If you have a game that you’re enthusiastic about and think would resonate well with our community, don’t hesitate to reach out to a Committee member or an admin via PM. We’d love to assist you in organizing a group within CMP!

 

Donating To CMP
Without donations to help cover the costs for servers and software we cannot continue to create and host FH2 campaigns, support new games when possible; as well as run the forums, Teamspeak and Discord channels.

We are now midway through 2025 and we need members to step up and donate whatever they can afford to help cover the monthly community costs - even a few Euros will help.

You can use the button below to make a single or monthly donation to CMP, or use the buttons on the side bar of the Home page.
