About Command Ops: Highway to the Reich

As the first official expansion pack for the award winning Command Ops series, Command Ops: Highway to the Reich from acclaimed developer Panther Games brings us to the setting of one of the most epic and controversial battles of World War II: Operation Market-Garden. The Highway to the Reich expansion pack is a set of 13 scenarios covering all of the major actions that took place during the Market Garden Campaign in Holland during September 1944.

The scenarios cover every major engagement along Hell’s Highway, from the surprise capture of Joe’s Bridge by the Irish Guards a week before the offensive to the final battles on “The Island” south of Arnhem. The dramatic parachute and glider landings of the US 82nd and 101st Airborne, The British 1st Airborne and the Polish Brigade are all represented on some of the largest maps ever created for the series and the largest “campaign” scenario in this system to date. More than just a conversion of the old scenarios to play on the new system, the Expansion Pack represents a major update of Panther Games ground breaking classic game Highway to the Reich, incorporating numerous corrections to Maps, Orders of Battle, Unit Compositions, Reinforcement Schedules, and overall game play.

Command Ops: Highway to the Reichis an expansion for Command Ops: Battles from the Bulge and requires the base game to play.

Command Ops: Battles from the Bulge

Tried one of the scenarios a little last night, gonna be a fun game to play through.
But I need to go do the tutorials for BFTB first, to get back into the game.

Just in case you haven't done it already,(or FYI) You might want to get the HTTR Strategy Guide AKA "Operation Market Garden : Campaign Analysis"

It was sold at the inception of the original stand alone "Highway to the Reich", you should be able to find it in the Product section associated to that game.

It is an interesting professional and impartial analysis of that campaign. It does help to clarify some challenging perspectives.

I've never played the Command Ops games, but the feature of a competent subordinate AI and lack of micromanagement piques my interest. Will try out the BFTB demo.

Anyone care to do a multiplayer event? I think this game rocks, I just got it and still learning. I live in timezone UTC+1

I am curious . . . how is this significantly different from the original HTTR? It looks about the same on the surface . . .

The differences are almost entirely engine based, internal differences in the HTTR (older stand-alone AA series) and CmdOps:HTTR, which is module/engine based.

The most obvious difference is the 'exit objectives' and 'explicit' supply - previously all valid supply runs were always successful at the appropriate time, now units can become isolated from supply, and depots can be cut-off and need to rely on internal stocks more often.

Otherwise, AA:RDOA, HTTR, COTA are no longer supported code, while CmdOps is the current code branch.

am I missing something... don't see it on the site, after a search... and post like this should always include a link.

ahh, my mistake... thought this was a Slitherine game, checked there.
