In the morning of December 16th,1944 German Forces launched a surprise attack in the dense Ardennes Forest in Belgium and Luxemburg. Allied High command is hastily rushing re-enforcements to the area, to counter the surprise attack and prevent them from crossing Meuse river. Can you stop the elite of the German panzerdivisions, or vice versa,lead them to victory? Find out. Features include but are in no way limited to: -The new Automatic Territory Capture system (thanks to AnyGameX) No more flagpoles simply capture territory by having more men in it than your opponent. -Fuel and ammo consumption -Realistic tank combat featuring historic penetration values, tanks have their turret rotation times reset to the actual speeds of real life, visibility reduced to reflect the limited line of sight from tanks' vision blocks. -new units such as the Sturmtiger, M36 'Jackson', M4A3E2 Sherman "Jumbo" and many,many more. - more than 35 exclusive high quality winter maps & realistic athmospheres

Description

The bitter fighting in the forests of Belgium continues. Both sides have suffered heavy losses and the offensive has lost momentum. But in the night of new years eve, the Germans have launched another counter attack, this time in Alsace-Lorraine. The target seems to be Strasbourg. Apparantly they want to relieve pressure from the Ardennes front and gain the initiative again.

Thank You for your answer - I'll try. But next time, if there'll be next time - please, make a .rar version as well. (some of us prefer installing mods manually, also)

The antivirus is only flagging the type of compression of the installer, thus, it is detected as a generic Trojan. It doesn't mean the file is infected, it just means your antivirus is being picky.

you have to lower the aggressiveness/ Security settings,
otherwise it will always flag that it as malware.

If you know how to install a mod manually, I also provided it the mod in a rar archive. unzip into your CoH root folder.

nice mod as always, surely the infantry more deadly, but my tank squad scatter to hell as they start spamming with king tiger, i wish god of botb mod give me his deadly tank for my allied squad...not just scrap of some tin can. cause jackson to weak for flanking, when i tried to flank them they ambush my small flank squad. and thats it they all return in bodybag. as always i running out resource, can u double the resource point when we capture it with auto capture mode. and finally i wish some pershing and buildable super pershing or capture tiger, at least some deadly or even stronger armor for allied. i always played in stavelot

I think you will wait long time for Pershings. BotB was in 44, and there were no Pershings involved. you really need MORE armor , airstrikes or arty to fight german tanks. ;)

the M36 is in fact VERY effective. keep it in the back, use recon and some other units to distract the enemy tank(s), then finish them from the distance.

Perhaps as a later update, you could release some maps which take place on the other side of the Meuse? Like in Brussels, Antwerp, etc.

Hello. I have an issue, with this mod. Other mods and the normal game works perfectly. After playing about 30 minutes, my game crashes. I hear an Windows error message, then something says: The build stamp server has stopped working. It's really annoying, because the mod is really awesome.

Is Halftrack still working on this mod? I think it was my favourite CoH mod, possibly second only to Blitzkrieg, but that hasn't been updated in ages either.

I'm running BOtB V3.5 (current) on a Steam complete version of COH. The menu art for BOTB comes up and the BOTB skirmish maps are available, but I can't find the BOTB campaign. My understanding is that it replaces the Normandy campaign. Any guess where I've gone wrong?

Much Obliged.

there is no BotB campaign. Who told you that there is one?
Like any other mod I know it is a skirmish mod.

I stand corrected. It was implied in the general description of the mod:

"It converts the Summer/Normandy Scenario of CoH into a winter scenario along with winter Maps, Skins and units."

I believe the Modern Combat mod is a full campaign, and thought this was likewise. My whatever.
