Posted by Rocky on Wednesday, November 16 2005
Over the next few days we're going to have quite a blitz on new Ghost Recon mods. There's a special treat for owners of both Ghost Recon and The Sum of all Fears, in the form of a brand new mission from Streinger and GiWeDa called "The Punisher". Then later this week we'll be releasing Ghost Turbulence, a new 7 mission campaign from Ghost Troop.

But we are starting off with another massive mod from Sixpence - Hidden War v1.3. In this mission pack you'll find 15 missions that can be played as a solo campaign or online in multiplayer. As usual with Sixpence mods though, that's not all, as you will also find custom vehicles, characters and more! Read more and pick your download location from our Hidden War download entry.
