Historically accurate equipment displays the benefits and failings of their real counterparts. Features such as multi-role APCs and improved infantry classes promote team play by making it easier and more beneficial for players to work together. A comprehensively revised damage system allows for a much greater depth of feel without being draconian, one-hit kills are the exception not the rule.
We have gone to great lengths to produce game play that is both balanced and enjoyable. Attention to detail has also become a key aspect of the mod with high quality textures, sounds and models all carefully researched and developed. The result is a mod with approximately 150 tanks, trucks and cars; more than 80 aircraft, over 80 small-arms and over 190 unique maps. These are increasing with each release and represent 13 nations: Australia, Canada, China, Germany, Greece, Hungary, Italy (+ post armistice Italy (1943-45), Japan, The Netherlands, Russia, France (1940), Vichy France and Free French (1940-45), The United Kingdom and The United States.
More information can be found on our website, our forum, and Encyclopedia (wiki).
This is also the place to ask any further questions you may have about the mod.

How do I install this thing? I mean play it, because there is no installation :/.
Download from the mirrors in the link above and then run the .exe files from 1-3.
I did that exactly but whenever I play a level it goes outta the game and back onto the Desktop! What's going on?
Do you have everything installed - BF42 1.61b, Map Pack etc? Nobody else has encountered this problem. Trying downloading again and reinstalling (also try reinstalling BF42).
If problem persists come over to the forums and post --> www.battlegroup42.de

I went to the download link that is listed on BattleGroup42's homepage, but when I try and download the files, that web page spits several paragraphs of german at me that I have no hope of understanding.
How about making this file available to Americans?
