I am more wondering why TWi didnt promote our mod anyhow anywhere. They didnt say even a single word about our mod on any oficial channel, not in steam group, steam workshop - anywhere. When HOTW was released, they spreaded news about it and about its every single update in oficial ro2 steam group, in workshop.
They probably just dont like how our mod changes the game, this is the most probable reason.
The mod was born because of dislike for the original mechanics. Changing the game to fit a different way of playing. Mods like this including competitive mods are often ignored by the developers. As it implies that the vanilla game is bad. It does bring in new things such as weapons and cool features such as detachable bayonets. But it changes the base game a lot and there was only 1 reason for that.
Heroes of the west is more of an expansion. Retaining all the original game mechanics and only bringing in new things. Not to mention a sizable chunk of the new assets are from TWI/AMG themselves. So for something the developers themselves put effort into making it would sort of make sense to advertise it. Not to mention from a potential buyers point of view it looks good. Eastern front, Pacific front and potentially the Western front all for $20.
So you can see why.
