July-August 2011 The First Battle of Smolensk 70th anniversary
On June 1941, the Germans invaded the Soviet Union. 2 weeks later on July, the Soviet first Western Front was on the verge of completely ceasing to exist.
The Stavka committed virtually its entire strategic reserve to protect the Smolensk-Moscow axis.
The Battle of Smolensk was critical and its outcome would determine if an offensive against Moscow could continue.
Under your command the German Army Group Centre. This mission is in 2 parts. The first part puts emphasis on the German supply challenge, you have to protect the German supply depots and railway workers, and also defend against attacks from the Red Army and from the partisants.
The second part is about the Battle of Smolensk itself.
This mission will be included in the next patch Korona and friends will release soon!

For a new project, based on Blitzkrieg 2, we are looking for a nickname for the first German Atomic Bomb.
Provide an original name of the German Atomic Bomb before September 20 in the forums, and if it get's picked, you will win a copy of Dr Strangelove!
For reference, the first American atomic bomb was called Gadget, and the first Soviet atomic bomb First Lightning.
The contest has ended, we have a winner.

Sorry for the lack of updates, but one is better late than never. Blitzkrieg was meant to have been released this summer, as it is apparent from the previous update. As fate would have it Blitzkrieg was not released. Instead of giving a bunch of lame excuses I'll just post what we have been doing and start updating more frequently.
I know you have heard it many times before, but we aren't far of from being done, which should be obvious from the screenshots, but whatever last bits are still missing has to be done. If it will take several months to do the remaining parts of Blitzkrieg, that is how long you will have to wait for the mod - I honestly don't think it will take that long though, but only time will tell.
And I wish you all a Happy New Year!
Regards,
Philip

The picture a few days ago was, in fact, referring to the coming release of the Blitzkrieg site and the coming release of the new version of the mod. Now, years after the release, we are about ready to release the next episode of the popular modification for Red Alert 2: Yuri's Revenge. We've therefore created a new site for the mod to enable for the smoothest release possible.
The new version of Blitzkrieg will feature more new features and graphics than ever before, including all new sets of terrain, sounds and unit graphics. The next couple of days will bring a lot more information, this is simply to introduce you to the reincarnation of the classic of all mods for Red Alert 2, which set new standards through out the community, and even was a part of the foundations for this network.
There's been attached one screenshot to this post , this is not a fair display of the true extends of the new version, as said; more will follow the coming days - much more. Stay tuned!
I would however like to take this time to thank several people for having contributed a great deal to the mod, these are among others Mooman from the well-known MooMan's Corner, Major Gilbear and André from Team Revenge (Revora), Marshall of Purple Alert, Biohazard and raminator. You have made this day possible and I therefore want to thank you on my behalf, Derelict Studios and everyone who have ever been a fan of Blitzkrieg. Make sure to check out the works of these people, it is of the up most quality.
