Description
This collection consists of a variety of maps from the British Campaign, created by MonolithicBacon, with contributions from Mirage and Donxavi. From Africa, to Belgium, France, Crete and the Netherlands, these maps display the vast and complex nature of warzones throughout the British war drive.

Below is a complete list of maps to be included within the British Fronts Pack, but each will be released as they are completed. Please check back for additions in the near future!

Within this map pack are currently enclosed 21 maps with more on the way, including but not exclusive to:

(2 – 4) Elst Outskirts
- Based around narrow roadways through a forested village, Elst Outskirts forces completitive players into firing lines that will dictate defensive and risky combat. Hold solid ground and lose resources, or push into unknown territory to take it all.

(2) Westkapelle Inland
- Designed and balanced with the help of Mirage, this competitive map focusses on the use of hedgerows at key positions to allow fluid flanking and ambushes. Buildings saturating the map's centre, but resources dominate the high-risk outskirts of this town.

(2) Catania Region (Codename: Ische)
- A minor river-crossing in a rural Sicilian settlement, this map was designed for use in Rewind with the utmost focus on fair and balanced gameplay. With cover and concealment at a minimum, players will have to move fast to lock down their objectives.

(2 – 4) Oosterbeek
- Based on the real-life Stationseweg crossroads in Oosterbeek, this map will have armies fighting across wide and dangerous streets, using buildings and ruins as cover. Holding the crossroads is key to locking down this cut-off heavy location.

(4 - 6) Conca River Crossing
- Based around Rural hillsides in Italy, this river map offers multiple routes across the vital waterway, including 3 bridges and 3 shallow crossings. Whoever holds the river itself holds the advantage.

(4 – 6) Caen
- Designed by MonolithicBacon and Mirage, this ruined urban setting shows the sheer devastation of the British Campaign. With plenty of places to hide, players would be wise to study key areas of defence before risking assault.

(4 – 6) Tobruk Line
- Using a unique combination of atmosphere settings, tilesets and splats, this map takes players to the desert location of Tobruk. Rocky outcroppings and foxholes are among the only cover available, and mechanised combat is the staple of victory.

(6 – 8) Road to Oosterbeek
- Based on Relic's Company of Heroes: Opposing Fronts campaign map, Road to Oosterbeek pits players against each other in a vast, urban environment with masses of narrow streets and dangerous roadways.

(6 – 8) 's Hertogenbosch
- The city of 's Hertogenbosch takes bridge warfare to extremes, with 8 bridges and 4 major crossings, this vast map leaves strategy and defence entirely in the hands of the player. Defend or assault as you choose, but teamwork is pivitol to success.

(6 - 8) Sword Beach
- From the open stretches of the beachead to the clustered towns above, Sword Beach takes players back to the Normandy Landings, to play out the British events of that famous day.

(6 - 8) Operation: Goodwood
- Hailed as the largest armoured battle in British Military history, Operation Goodwood switches from forests to open fields sharply; armoured tactics are most likely to succeed, but in such open conditions, much is at stake.
