OK, guys, I'm proud to say, that Modern Forge is officially downloadable and playable. In cause of some technical things, the 1.00 version doesn't have campaigns yet. It's a version for SoD, so there will be no Commanders, or 8th levels.
Don't worry, we're still workin' on WoG version, there will be as many updates, as we can

Well, it's easy to criticise from the stands. It's certainly not as graphically refined as the HotA Harbor, but it's ready and it's playable, which is more than the vast majority of projects can boast.
Kudos and a +QP to BanBreaker. I don't know Pewu's role in the project, but I'm willing to apply another bonus if he made a substantial contribution to it.

Hi, Guys. Now we're working at WoG version of Modern Forge, and here is my project for the commander:

The absence of any flying unit of the fraction I'm going to enter at this commander teleport animation (like devil).
@Cepheus: Pewu now help BB in releasing first correcting discrepancies in some graphics patch and You can see him including the authors in main site of project with his work.

It's not a criticism. It's my opinion.
But, if this word is said..
Criticism:
- city view looks like resized scan. Blured details, strange transitions between colors, compression artifacts (both jpeg and def). Outlines don't fully match buildings' contours.
- names of buildings sounds weird. Tower of Fallen Machines? Altar of Technology? These two boats on the water - Weird University? Really weird.
- creatures.. 7 lvl really drawn in mspaint? Other levels, also, looks like worst examples of "Possible creatures".
- hero portraits. They don't fit Heroes, town, and each other.

That's good enough for me. A bonus to Pewu.

Well... I haven't seen this mod in action yet, but city (shown on mod site) looks pretty good. But I do agree with what You say about buildings names. They are a a littlr bit weird... I'm not a part of mod team of course, but i suggest that if someone have some ideas about names- he should write it here. It's quite possible that They'll change it.

We still can change names. It's the smallest problem.
I think in the new updates there won't be "Waiting Room", I think 'bout something like Recrutation Point, or something else 
And of course, thanks to Hiro for reminding my work and Cepheus for giving me a Bonus
Hiro also has a big meaning to Modern Forge. He should've get Bonus too

So maybe I'll post my ideas for units and buildings names
Units:
Kandydat/Candidat- Rekrut/Recruit
Drednot/Dreadnought- Niszczyciel/Destroyer
Buildings: (original name: only Pl version)
Pomieszczenie nadzorcy- Kwatery nadzorców/ Overseers quarters
Dziwaczny uniwersytet- Akademia/ Academy
Ołtarz technologii- Wielka Fabryka/ Great Factory
Gildia- Złomowisko/Junkyard (i know it's weird but I think it fits well )
Dom Ognia- Ognista KuĽnia/ Fire forge
Wieża konstruktorów- Laboratorium/ Laboratory

Your names looks good in most, but with few exceptions -
Cyborgs are like "nobility" of Modern Forge, so it would be weird if they lived in the junkyard 
Similarly Constructor's dwelling is called Consctructor's tower because they live here and taking fun here (because their home is near the tavern, You can read on the page ;]). "Laboratory" work suggests that more exercise.
It may be a "little" complicated, sorry.
Thanks for Your interest in the project! It is possible that the author will use your suggestions

I am unable to run it. First the update.exe provided with it is broken, so I had to use the ERA's one. Then H3mf.exe does not start and the process can't be stopped in task bar. Had to reboot.

It asks WOG for installing over SOD, so it is not the problem. Maybe because I have Heroes complete and the exe replaces SOD one?
