CMRT: The Last Bridge
(Special Note: This campaign was designed before the current Berlin mod. I recommend removing the current Berlin mood when you play this as it could create some conflicts.)
The Last Bridge is a CMRT mini campaign that takes place in the last days of the war during The Battle of Berlin. Hopefully it will give a good depiction of the brutal street fighting in those final days.
It is comprised of 4 missions you must successfully complete to win the campaign. If you lose the first mission you will be branched to an additional mission to have a chance to regain your honor. However the drawback is it will put additional stress on your core units.
It will require certain mods to play which will be listed below.
The campaign should be considered hypothetical even though the units are historical. However a historical timeline is included in the designer notes of the campaign for reference and interest.
It requires the latest version 4 of CMRT.
The campaign mission is to control four bridges over the Spree River and the Industrial Zone.
About the Campaign:
It takes place from April 28th, 1945 until April 30th, 1945 near the Alexanderplatz District of Berlin. The Industrial District lies on an island of sorts where the Spree River divides into separate waterways.
Your mission is to hold the 4 bridges and the Industrial District and complete the objectives of each scenario.
The Details:
To be successful you must preserve as much of your core forces as possible between missions. As in the real battle the Russians have an endless supply of men and material where you have limited resources and reinforcements.
Supply and ammunition will be stressed to the limit but you will get opportunities to be refitted. However, resource management during the first several missions is important. Make every round count.
Map:
The map was created by me using the amazing Stalingrad Mod by Umlaut and NigelP. The entire campaign takes place on this one map.
Mods: For this campaign to look and play as I have designed it you will need the following mods.
All credit goes to the authors of these mods.
The Stalingrad Mod
(Special Note)
I have modified some of this mod to include German slogans and propaganda posters on some of the buildings to give it a Berlin feel.
Umlauts Factory Mod – (Required for the Stalingrad Mod)
(Read the installation instructions carefully for both of these. I recommend a separate CMRT install for this to work best)
If you already have these two mods (and I expect many will as they are awesome) then you will be good to go.
I have included the rest of the required mods in the campaign download. They are tagged to this campaign only:
- Aris Vehicle Mods (I have slightly modified these with specific unit insignia or damage features) a. Tiger 1 Mod
b. Panther Mod
c. StugIII Mod
d. SDKfz 251D Mod
e. T-34/85 Mod
f. ISU-152 Mod
g. IS-2 Mod
h. OT-34/76 Mod
i. Opel Blitz Mod - Umlauts King Tiger Henschel Mod
- Mords Portrait Mods (Also slightly modified with unit insignia)
- EZ’s Uniforms and Faces Mod
- Various Additional Terrain and Effects Features
- Russian Telogreika Uniform Mod by Kohleklau
- Custom Loading Music
These mods will add the immersion that I designed the campaign with.
