'Forgotten Hope' is a 2003 modification for Battlefield: 1942. Featuring maps based on key battles in the Second World War, from the invasion of Poland in 1939 to the fall of Germany in 1945, the action takes place across all four major theaters of the war - Western and Eastern Europe, the Mediterranean and the Pacific. With eleven different countries available, players can use dozens of authentic WW2-era small arms and vehicles. Due to the popularity of the mod, a sequel, Forgotten Hope 2, was released in 2005 for Battlefield 2.
The Colt M1911A1 is the main sidearm for U.S. troops. It should be noted that, unlike in Battlefield 1942, sidearms are issued to only a few select classes, such as Officers, Snipers and Antitank Gunners, rather then as a back-up for all classes.
The Bergmann MP18 is used as a submachine gun by the Imperial Japanese Army faction. This is actually not a historical liberty, for the Bergmann MP18 was fielded by Japanese Marines and saw combat in China and the South Pacific before being replaced by the Type 100 in 1942. It uses a 32-round box magazine.
The M1903A4 Springfield is used as a sniper rifle by U.S. infantrymen. Unlike in Battlefield 1942, where a Sniper class was available, scoped rifles in Forgotten Hope are rare to come by and function as "easter eggs".
Unsurprisingly, the M1 Garand is the main-issue battle rifle for U.S. troops in-game. On some maps and for some classes it can be fitted with a rifle grenade. The M1-C variant, fitted with a telescopic sight, is available on some maps.
The Lee-Enfield No.4 Mk.I is the main battle rifle for the Commonwealth factions. On some maps and for some classes it can be fitted with a rifle grenade.
Error creating thumbnail: File missingLee-Enfield No.4 Mk.I - .303 British. This was the main battle rifle of British and Commonwealth forces during World War Two, however, it was supplemented heavily with the older Lee Enfield No.1 MK.III. First placed in service with the British military in 1941.Error creating thumbnail: File missingThe Lee-Enfield No.4 Mk.I in Forgotten Hope.Error creating thumbnail: File missingThird-Person view of the Lee-Enfield No.4 Mk.I in Forgotten Hope.
The main weapon of the Red Army faction in-game is the Mosin-Nagant M91/30. A scoped M91/30 is available as an "easter egg". It is also used by the Finnish faction.
Error creating thumbnail: File missingMosin Nagant M38 Carbine - 7.62x54mm R. This is the version issued during most of World War 2, the M44 would not be fielded until the last six months of the war. Note slightly shorter barrel, lack of brass reinforcements in the Sling holes and lack of bayonet notch in the stock.Error creating thumbnail: File missingThe Mosin Nagant M91/30 in Forgotten Hope.Error creating thumbnail: File missingThird-Person view of the Mosin Nagant M91/30 in Forgotten Hope.
Tokarev SVT-40
Also used by the USSR faction in-game is the Tokarev SVT-40. A scope SVT-40 is also available as an "easter egg".
The kb ppanc wz.35 is used by the Polish faction. Under the designation of M35, it is also used by German antitank troops in early maps (the Wehrmacht did use the Wz.35 in combat in real life, as did the Italians).
The Arisaka Type 99 is the main weapon of the Imperial Japanese Army faction. It is never seen without a bayonet, although the bayonet cannot actually be used in melee combat.
The US support gunner class carries the M1918A2 Browning Automatic Rifle. It is fitted with a bipod, although the bipod serves no practical purpose. It can be fired at 450 or 600 rounds per minute.
The Bren Mk1 is carried by Commonwealth support gunners. It is also mounted in machine gun nests and bunkers, and on the Universal Carrier and the British version of the US M3A1 Halftrack.
The M1941 Johnson Machine Gun is available in-game as an "easter egg" for the Canadian faction. Canadian special forces did indeed operate the Johnson in World War Two.
