Greetings Commanders,
As you probably know, Men of War II will feature full mod support at launch. What you might not be aware of, even though we teased it some time ago, is the fact that we have already provided several modding teams early access to the tools they need to bring their creations to life. It is now our absolute pleasure to bring you a first sneak peek of one of the upcoming mods, which will be available to play at least in part right at launch, on September 20!
And it is none other than a remake of the "Lost Eagles" modification, which tells the story of an alternate outcome of Operation Overlord, where the Allied invasion of Normandy completely failed. Surviving paratroopers, led by Lieutenant Jason Baker, discover a shelter in an abandoned equipment service station where they struggle to survive, assist the local guerrilla militia in their war of partisanship, and search for surviving soldiers.
A nonlinear story campaign is complimented by full studio-quality voice acting for all dialogues and characters and the high quality of the missions, their gameplay variety, and the excellently transferred dark atmosphere introduce exceptional depth and intensity to the gameplay.
To get a better idea of the atmosphere awaiting you in Lost Eagles, its creator, Skilletti, has already prepared a short teaser and a couple of screenshots, enjoy!

This is what Skilletti had to say about working with the Men of War II modding toolkit:
"For me the GEM engine is in a kind of a sandbox, where you can implement any player's fantasies, gameplay concepts and realize your creative ideas without having much technical knowledge in game dev. Huge possibilities of the editor allow to reproduce absolutely any plot regardless of the setting."
Stay tuned, we will have even more news to share with you soon, including unveilings and sneak peeks into other mods that are already in production! And if you are a modder with a great idea for new Men of War II content, or have an already existing mod you would like to convert to Men of War II, contact us at [email protected] - we cannot promise everyone who asks will get early access to the modding tools however, since the game is still in development.
Don’t forget to wishlist Men of War II, join its Discord and follow Fulqrum Publishing on social media, so you don’t miss any of our announcements!
