I, FeReise and Silas had created a set of overhaul mods for Call of Duty World at War's Campaign. We aimed to increase a little bit more element of AUTHENTICITY into it, and we really hope these mods should be able to provide you the gaming experiences even better than the vanilla version.

PS. Although I really want to see more of the historical and educational content in future video games, that doesn't mean I expect it to be 100% accurate. Due to the fact that it was NEARLY IMPOSSIBLE indeed to create the historical-based games with fully corrected historical details on them. Mainly because of the limited time, lack of information and insufficient research, gameplay, budgets, interference of publishers and the third parties, also present days political agenda and etc. Thus, I don't really want to be so serious with the details, just only 70-80% accuracy is fine enough for my expectation of the historical accuracy of videogames.

But the problem is, a certain amount of historical-based games were made so poorly, so many mistakes had been found and some of them are totally unacceptable. Just for my favorite here alone, Call of Duty World at War, I can only give the accuracy rate for only 40-50%! (I can surely make lists of the mistakes if I want to, there would be hundreds of them) And that's the main reason why we created these mods for you guys who really interested in the authenticity stuff. But due to the few amounts of original 'vanilla' materials provided by Treyarch, large scale mistakes that we have no idea how to fix them (like maps and environments), and some other technical problems while we were modding. So, I'm afraid its accuracy still not reached a satisfying level as I want it to be, but at least that what we can do for now.

what about the tank battle in hard landing. Something to fix the damage values so that the shermans manage to breach the japanese armor without losses. Historically, Japanese tanks were great against chinese tanks but Shermans cut through them like paper. Is there a mod that replicates this behavior? Because the Elite mod doesn't and there's no option to change damage values in the mod tools or INI files. thanks
