Hello, and welcome back for another monthly overview!

Unfortunately, as you might have noticed, this past week the Black Sand Studios website and forums were taken offline for a prolonged period of time due to server problems. Although we are happy to report that the site is now back online again, our current press release is a little behind schedule, so we’d like to apologize for that.

But enough of that for now… today we have our brand new user interface to show you!

First of all, the Modern Combat main menu, recent recipient of a major makeover! Behind it, a generic background for use in menus and lobbies. It depicts a stylized map of North-Eastern China, and of the coasts and major cities that border the Bohai Sea. The People’s Republic of China will serve as the primary theater of war within which the battles of Modern Combat are set.

Hello and welcome back to another highlight. Forgive the late arrival, but we’ve all been busy on multiple fronts. Nevertheless we want to give you a peek at what we have come up with this month.

First thing to mention would be another revision. This time it’s the Stryker and its various variants. KnightOfAmmo utilized all the skill he has gathered from his past works and delivered us with this new top notch texture. But it’s not only a revision. We also added the cage armor upgrade, which will be available for Close Combat commanders. Have a closer look at the following pictures.

Hi guys! It’s our “time of the month” again, and we have another fantastic trailer on-hand for all you loyal fans out there!

This time around, we’ve decided to provide you with some gameplay footage, rather than take a purely-cinematic approach. After all the recent work that’s gone into balancing our mod, we want to offer a look at what we’ve created thus far from a player’s perspective, and at the same time, demonstrate some of the special units and features that make CoH: Modern Combat unique.

It’s the end of the month and we’re back with another preview for CoH: Modern Combat! As we announced in our last Christmas special, we’ve been busy in the alpha progress of our mod. This means we’ve spend a lot of our resources on balance and bug fixing. As a result the amount of new content is not as huge as usual, but we hope you still enjoy what we have to show.

Not long ago we’ve shown you the first of our revisions, the new Humvee. This time we have another unit that has been completely revamped to meet our high quality standards, the Bradley infantry fighting vehicle! Look at these ingame shots to judge yourself.
