T1e3 Mineroller and T27 "Xylophone" image - Battle of the Bulge mod for Company of Heroes: Opposing Fronts
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
Two rather exotic units, but both fit in the Ardennes scenario very well.
The T1e3, nicknamed "Aunt Jemina" (after a then-famous pancake mix) for its 10 massive discs which trigger any mine. The device was deployed by US Forces from late 1944 onward, but proved difficult to handle. It replaces the british "Crab" upgrade.
The T27 was a stationary 8-tube rocket launcher. 2nd U.S. Infantry Division mounted 2 of them each on trucks to make them more mobile. They first saw combat in September of 1944. So players have another rocket option for the U.S.Army.
Hey bro what is T27? looks like a US-katyusha
well, not really :-D
Just 2 8-tube rocket launchers on the back of a truck. not really adjustable and with unsatisfying results.
In terms of accuracy, firing range and volley power, they were inferior to the Soviet BM-13.
In reality the tubes were facing to the right, but that turned out
to be quite difficult for the CoH engine...
I am so proud to have been playing this mod for over 7 years and to see what it is shaping to be. I know you and the rest of the BOTB mod team will make this even better than we ever thought it could be. P.S love the new update, the ammo system is awesome
Something wrong with T27. When it fires, crews will get out and stand there forever, even can block other units.
