addedOsumia Games doesn't have a history of Halloween goodies buuuut it's never too late for that, isn't it? Today, in invasion and until Monday, November 8 , we'll have some pumpkin boxes for you. Lot of goodies such as new powerful weapons, but on the more humorous (hey, it's Halloween after all!) also new costumes with custom effects behind them, such as spawning skeletons when you kill an enemy with the Reaper's Scythe while wearing a fancy Reaper costume! Or going berserk as a werewolf when on a melee streak. You can even disguise as vampire and replenish your vest. We want to thank the modding community especially for the ideas they submitted for this box! Boo!
addedWe're very excited to debut a new game scenario: WW2 Undead ! In the spirit of Halloween, this is a zombies-based mode. Taking place just after the end of the war, Axis Remnant forces have resurrected the dead in an attempt to overthrow the victorious Allies (Unbeknownst to them, the Undead share little sympathy to their cause). Set in the aftermath of Operation: Varsity, play as a lone member of the Allied forces (or team up with friends in co-op) to defeat the Axis Remnant and the Undead! To launch the mission, locate it under the Campaigns menu. You must be an owner of RUNNING WITH RIFLES: EDELWEISS to have access to it. To win the mission, you must visit each base marked on the map as having an occult 'pentagram' within it and stand on the pentagram seal until it completely lights up. Finishing all the pentagrams will unlock the Castle Gate in the north-east corner of the map; within the Castle you must defeat the enemy Overlord boss to win! Can you stop the evil forces at hand and bring an end to this great villainy? Good luck soldier!
addedThe new scenario comes complete with many new types of enemy units and a variety of assets specific to it. In addition, changes to the standard EDELWEISS and PACIFIC mode have also been made; you can find the changelog below.

We also made a few fixes and balancing tweaks which will especially please the XP-addicted among you guys. Indeed, the XP per kills is average 35% higher than it was in 1.87 (base on a 10 kill streak - Godlike Pwnage). Lower kill streaks especially will take advantage of the change, as the XP boost has never been higher!

We've also prepared a big update for owners of RUNNING WITH RIFLES: EDELWEISS!
