This is the very northern tip of the Siegfried line. British forces advance on a heavy German bunker position. While the outnumbered German forces desperately try and hold on. If the Germans fail the British have a clear path into the German mainland.
American Airborne forces landed in farmland flooded by the German defenders to make crossing the terrain difficult. This is one of the locations where the flow of water is controlled, The Barquette Locks. Control of the locks mean the allies can start draining the fields.
On both Hell's Corners and Oosterbeek, Allied commanders can now request a supply drop from a C-47. Using the same markers as artillery these supply drops will contain weapons for players to pick up and use. As well as becoming an ammo resupply point on the map. They are faction specific weapons and generally contain a lot of automatic weaponry.

This mod isnt even enjoyable without paying "Rising Storm". Tired of running into the match with that horrible rifle called Enfield on the search of a M1 Garand.
Its free? Yeah. But isnt enjoyable without paying first.
Thats a problem yeah, but well, time to wait for the magic Steam Sales..
m1 garand isnt the worst.in ww2 it was the best us army rifle
Seems like it's your lucky day, you can get Rising Storm GOTY for free :)

Yeah it uses content from Rising storm as well as RO2. So you need to own both technically. It only affects a small number of people due to the fact since September 2014 it was made impossible to buy those games separately.
