About InfantryMod2
By Tom van der Lek aka MasterTom[NL]
After some discussions with friends about the grenadelauncher, I decided to try and create an InfantryMod for Battlefield 2.
At first we started with an entirely new kitsetup, but after some time we got back to the original kitsetup... with all the grenades, claymores, c4 and mines removed.
I then worked on some vanilla BF2 maps... to transform them for infantry battles, but it wasnt untill a few weeks before the release of 1.2 that I finally had what I wanted. In the meantime I worked on a new gamemode called 'Flag by Flag' wich permit the flags to only be captured in a certain order.
When Paus Paul had finished his map Crosstown and my map Eagle Island was done as well, it was time for the big release... well the smallest one actually... but with the most content. :)

About Infantry Mod '42
By Jorrit aka Spleasure:
In the beginning of 2004
Clanbase started their
European Infantry Ladder. It was played using the default Battlefield 1942 settings, but the rules disallowed the usage of grenades and vehicles.
It seemed to me that it wouldn't be so hard to remove them from the game entirely, but it had to be done through a mod, because on the ARCOR public Stalingrad server they managed to remove the tanks serverside, but removing the grenades without using a client-side mod was imposible.
I finally got time on a lan called
Illuzion II afterparty, in februari 2004. The first version removed the grenades and the vehicles from Stalingrad and Berlin, and it's size was completely neglectible, because no custom loadscreen or anything else was present, only some changed config scripts.
The contact with the Clanbase laddersupervisor was very hard, so it took a time before my mod was used in an official tournament. Besides the ladder, Clanbase also started organizing an
Infantry Cup. For that cup, custom maps were required, and I put them in the installer of my mod, and released the first version. Despite some troubles loading Stalingrad and Berlin, it was used, and the first internetservers appeared.
Now the cup has ended, and the ladder started using this mod, which somehow guarantees the continuity of this mod.
