    I've heard good things about this Medmod, does anyone here have an actual link to a DESCRIPTION of the mod.

    I found the download site easily enough, but I would like to see what it changes, what kind of new units or rules it employs and so on before downloading it.

    And is the troll correct?, the Medmods creator is dead?, if so is the mod still being updated for any bugs by others?

    The creator is very much alive. And here is his website.

    Good to hear about the creator mate, but I already knew about the second site you provided, the 'newby' guide to Medmod won't download, as in IE says the site to download it from is down or gone.

    And theres no actual description of anything at the site, just downloads for the mod and some excel files (I don't use excel).

    No offence and I apologise if I've missed something but its a pretty damned crappy home site for a mod if it includes no information on it.

    The readme works just fine.
    Are you sure you clicked this link?
    I've taken the liberty to host the readme on my website for you, at this link.

    Oh okay thanks mate, I didn't check the Readme, I assumed it would just be like other games Readmes files just listing technical stuff and hadn't thought it wouldbe useful.

    I tried to open the actual 'newbie' guide at the bottom and thats what didn't work.

    Thanks again mate.

    I use the XL mod, its great. NTW is also a wonderful mod, but there is only so much you can do with the AI... I just got tired of being charged over and over again. Perfectly normal for MTW, but highly improbably that there would be a direct frontal assault to my Prussian lines...

    I must say that the hostility that arises when the mod subject comes up can flavor the desire of the lay folk like me toward one mod or another. I know this thread isnt about that, but any one who observes the org forums and the mod discussions on MTW would be remiss if they didnt note this very real aspect of the mods.

    For me I appreciate all the hard work, but frankly am not emotionally committed to any mod. Its a free download that someone is generous enough to offer to users like me, and while a degree of appreciation is definately in order, it should be tempered with the knowledge that most of us are pretty nuetral as to who's is better, or preference.

    Just keep producing free enhancements and everything will be cool, hopefully the knowledge that your hundreds of hours of thankless labor goes to supplementing users expirence like me, who for the most part are apathetic to your plight, should be enough reward to continue forth and increasing the features and functionality of your chosen work.
    There are few things more annoying than some idiot who has never done anything trying to say definitively how something should be done.
