Hey guys I just wanted to let you know I have a new Mod of the months, and interview with borg from Action half-life.
For the Review and MOTM http://www.halflife-mods.com/E/article.php?113.255
"AHL aims for something called 'Movie Realism.' This means that you can take a few bullets and keep fighting. You can fall from a two story roof and only hurt your leg. You can bandage a wound in seconds. This doesn't mean you're invincible however, as hits to the head from large caliber weapons are instantly fatal, but a headshot even from a small pistol will put you within an inch of your life.

Of course, stunts play a large part in action movies, and likewise, play a large part in AHL. Dives, rolls, and long jumps can be executed for style and tactical advantage. There's nothing quite like diving through a window and capping the bad guy in the head before you hit the ground. This is a game of style and fun, not obsessive realism."

"Timmay: Are the maps based off actual movie locations/sets, or are they all original places?

Borg: It’s a mix of both. Some maps are inspired by famous Hong Kong Bloodshed movies like ahl_hkheat, ahl_bankdoom by the work place of DOOManiac, ahl_snowmax by the game Max Payne, ahl_casagrande by Desperado and ahl_plexhbraid by the movie Hardboiled.. And there also pure fictional/fun maps like ahl_banamans (based on a big mansion), ahl_monorail (a city with a functional train and loads of opportunity to fall down), ahl_engholm (battle against each others on 2 tall house) and so on."
