Fortress Connected is a Team Fortress 2 sourcemod based on Lambda Fortress (CoaXion) lead by Vvis. Keeping the idea of co-op in alternate games as the TF2 mercenaries, Fortress Connected adds to this with support for games such as Left 4 Dead 1, Half-Life 2: Deathmatch, Black Mesa: Source, Entropy Zero 1 and 2, Counter-Strike: Source, and more. Along with these new supports Fortress Connected introduces new optional custom classes and full Mapbase support. (This version should be considered a completely different mod compared to the old version)
Gameplay
Custom Classes
This mod features the original nine Team Fortress 2 mercenary classes, alongside the following custom classes:
- The Renegade (Keeping the crossover idea, The Renegade is a citizen from the HL2 universe that stumbled his way across and joined forces with the Team Fortress 2 mercs)

Fortress Connected supports all official live tf2 gamemodes (except for passtime in it's current state) and adds some custom modes such as:

- Combine sniper rifle for the Sniper
