n 2002, Andrew "Argyll" Spearin, the original founder and director of Insurgency, begun his basic training for the Canadian Army. Being an avid Gamer, Spearin was inspired to think about why first-person-shooter war games seemed to get things all wrong.

As a result, he seeked out to develop a multiplayer game that featured squad-based realism and a feeling of scale representing that of a real war environment. Unfortunately, some time into the mod's development, Spearin was not able to continue his position as leader due to time constraints. Before Andrew stepped down, he passed the torch over to Jeremy Blum, the original founder and director of Red Orchestra.

Despite Andrew not being around anymore, we've tried to shape the mod around his original vision. The mod has undergone a lot of change and downtime over it's development, but we've worked hard to mould Insurgency into what it has become today.

The pieces are finally coming together and we are all quite proud of our accomplishments. With a release just ahead of us, this is a key moment in the history of the mod, which we feel is just one of many to come in the near future...
