The Battle of the Bulge mod has been released for Coh 2.3/OF. This is what was announced by the developers:

Early this morning, following heavy artillery bombardement,large German forces
have penetrated US positions in the Ardennes Forest in Belgium and Luxemburg!!

Allied High command is hastily rushing reenforcements to the
area, to counter the surprise attack and prevent them from crossing Meuse river.

Can you stop the elite of the german panzerdivisions, or vice versa,lead them to victory?
Find out.

All TGN has to say is: Mmm... Snow! Download the mod here.

If you want to wait for the installer, it will be another two weeks. Halftrack says it will be included with the next version.

Well, you were all probably expecting to have to wait at least another month for this but we wanted to whet your appetites for the full patch (due out after Halftrack returns from his Asian trek)! But we know you have already waited long enough for this so here it is;
This hotfix will take care of many of the gameplay issues with BotB, including the 'ubershreck bug' (see below for a full changelist).

We strongly advise that everyone playing online downloads this hotfix as you will not be able to play online against people who do not have it installed!!
