British Fronts Map Pack 5

The town of Goch, for many men in the 51st Highland Division, was the end of the war. Situated on the River Niers, this crumbling town was the final objective for the division. And the final resting place for those who died there. Under the cover of darkness, the town was assaulted from several angles, including the Northern road into the town itself, and the Western road into the flooded outskirts and forests. The men who fought here knew the cost of such a battle: push too far on either front, and risk being outflanked by the other. Strict command, strategy and grit was needed to advance both lines without breaking. In all; Allied forces advanced only a few hundred metres in 2 days.

Winter has fallen over Goch, and the roaring River Niers has frozen to a halt. Threats are no longer divided by natural barriers in this transformed battlefield. Those willing and daring to risk their fate on the ice can control vast areas, linking the city to the outskirts and adding a dramatic flank to some of the most exposed areas of Goch. The choice is yours. Will you rush ahead and take control of the map? Despite the dangers of taking the frozen pathways? Or go slow? Either way, remember: whoever controls the streets, controls Goch.

The raid on Goch was one involving only a handful of soldiers from 153 Brigade. In particular, the 1st Gordons and the 5th Black Watch, all Scotsmen, saw the worst of the attack. Using the cover of darkness, these men slipped into the town and wrought chaos and destruction from behind enemy lines. In this condensed battlefield, the focus is on the urban district, where close quarters combat and urban warfare are the only choices available to commanders. Fortify wisely, and prepare for a hard slog.

Endgame shifts the pace of combat in Company of Heroes 2 Victory Point games. Instead of capturing Victory Points and ticking them down, one must stay within the capture area and hold all the points to win. Players will have to use strategy and teamwork to hold these locations. Replacing infantry on the frontlines will become a staple of gameplay, and knowing when to leave a Victory Point will play a large role.
