Project Variety by Internoto
“First of all, I want to introduce myself. I am Tom (known as "Internoto" in the community), a modder and game artist student from Germany and the creator of the "Project Variety" mod for Squad44. Project Variety is a modding project that I started in 2022, with a first release in late January of the same year. Since then, the project has grown into something way bigger than what I expected it to be when I started working on it.
The project´s main target is to bring as many new vehicles into the game as possible, to give the players a big variety of tanks and other vehicles to play with. Especially in World War 2, there was such a big variety of vehicles, so I thought to myself it would be a shame if players couldn´t experience all these vehicles. The mod contains more than 50 new tanks, halftracks and other vehicles, with more to come in the future. Some of these vehicles are completely new models, some are altered models that existed already in the game.”

The mod portrays the Italian front, where the Brazilian expeditionary force took part in important battles: Monte Castello, Montese, and Fornovo. The first map to be developed was Monte Castello, which is still being developed and improved.

Post Scriptum Realism Mod (PSRM) by the PSRM Dev Team
The Post-Scriptum Realism Mod aims to deliver the most historically accurate and realistic game-play experience possible. Our mod appeals to a more discriminating mature gaming audience and those who expect an uncompromising standard of true-to-life combat, historical accuracy, and WWII simulation. Some of the community's premier realism units have joined forces to unlock the potential that the base game already has and redirect it towards the creation of the ultimate hardcore-for-the-sake-of-fun Mod for Unit Events and beyond.

Training Mod and Armoured Mod by Project Steel
The Training Mod is for beginners as well as advanced players. The mod offers an infantry shooting range where all current infantry weapons can be tested. Right next to the infantry shooting range, there are three tank shooting ranges where all vanilla, Project Variety and Project Steel tanks can be spawned at different distances (0m - 500m) and rotations (0 degrees - 360 degrees). It is also possible to change the weather, so you have the opportunity to train in the sun, at night or even in the rain. Another advantage is that the mod works locally as well as on a server, so you can train alone or with friends.
The Armored Mod is a non-historical armored-based mod. The mod offers a custom armoured game mode, camouflage changing system for tanks, tank smoke launcher, custom faction ("14th Armored Division" vs. "9. SS Panzer"), custom landing boats, mobile repair trucks, custom logistic buildables, destructible lights, custom air support and many more features.
The mod also has its own map that is designed for perfect tank combat.
