Will there be any new theatre of war missions sometime in the future and if so will they be included with the next expansion pack?

Just wondering because I was contemplating what a theatre of war on the wastern front would be like given that there are so many notable battles; Hurtgen forest, operation grenade, Operation Nordwind, operation veritable (hint hint), the battle of the scheldt among other things. Also there are more battles on the eastern front than what is already there dont ya know?

Theatre of War somehow got dumped and nobody really knows why. There were no new missions for the last 12-16 months I think.

This is sad because I somehow enjoyed the TOW missions while I canceled playing the campaign after 4-5 missions because IMO it is really no fun.

TOW could be so great with seperate Western Front scenarios. I think a pack with about 15-20 missions would be wort 10€.

Yeah, i bet many of the new players dont even know that ToW exists. I also really enjoyed playing it, especially the challenges.

Its a shame it didnt get any further attention, but hey, multiplayer changes and brits on the way, thats more important after all.

in one of the Q&As they said something along the lines of "we want to do more ToWs but we don't know if we will."

I hate that they completely abandoned the ost front.. It was so much more epic and so much could still be done. Ugh... So much potential..

I (and I think everyone) was only able to solve this on general by simply abusing the shit out of the game/map. Means waiting for 15-20 minutes to gain enough MP.

I don't think that this scenario can be legitimately done on general.

The main strategy is to sit out the first wave. It only consists of conscripts and they do almost no damage to your base buildings. Wait until you have about 5.000 MP and then start to build an army outside your base by placing the meeting point outside.

The first wave is simple to defeat. Then proceed to build T2 and build 2-3 PaKs. Equip your grens with LMGs and build 3-4 MGs.

Bunkers are also amazing. Repair your buildings after clearing a wave.

Thanks m8, IIRC cons threw a lot of molotovs though, looks like I'm wrong or molotovs do less to HQ than I thought :snfBarton:

Gonna try this strat today, such a shame one of three (?) point-defense levels in ToW has to be cheesed through

Better not. TOW is not the same as multiplayer which means that the units haven't get patched and PTRS is as bad as it used to be 95% of the time.

You want to so the enemy don't pick them up and start shooting the HQ. Their PTRS deals a lot more damage to the HQ than normal rifles. It's more for denial, iirc.

You will need the ptrs against the tanks. I always used it and i mastered this mission several times on general
