In that case, wouldn't this mean that all mods currently existing are NOT ALLOWED in the first place? Since according to this, every mod fits the description of a derivative work. Then in this case, no one is supposed (or allowed) to be making mods in the first place, and that those people who have already made mods are breaching the Terms and Conditions and are subject to lawsuits?

I really think this needs clarification.

The primary indication of whether a new program is a derivative work is whether the source code of the original program was used, modified, translated or otherwise changed in any way to create the new program. If not, then I would argue that there is not a derivative work.

If you buy, download use or play the Game, or create Mods for use in the Game, you are agreeing to adhere to the rules of Our (i) Mod Tools End User License Agreement, (ii) the End User License Agreement for Company of Heroes, and (iii) Our Privacy Policy (collectively, “CoH Rules”). By creating a mod for use in Company of Heroes 2, you agree to all parts of the CoH Rules. If you do not accept these terms, do not create a mod for use in the game.
