I don't know if this map was ever released. But if you want to play Carentan then you just need to wait a bit. Carentan is part of the Utah Beach Battle Pack that's currently in the works.

Thanks very much for the quick response, I was hoping to use it for a D-Day thing I have planned but we'll need to go to plan B!

Thanks again

Apologies for the extreme thread necromancy but was this map ever released?

I can't seem to find anything about it other than this thread

I'm happy to see more Cold War footage. But let's save our hype until we know they're getting close (wouldn't want the hype to burn out). All Steve revealed in the 2024 year to come thread is that they're well under way and we can expect some bones soon. Which could, but does not necessarily, mean that they're getting close.

Steve/theCapt originally said they were aiming for a 2023 release, so hopefully that means atleast a first half of 2024 release

I'm personally hoping that Steves bones part 2 post will be the initial screenshots for BAOR and a confirmation of what the Soviets will be getting (not expecting a release date at this stage though, just want some eye candy)

[Would you count an ambush as attack or defense?]

Ambushing is doctrinally an offensive action, it can be carried out in the support of a wider defence objective but so can any other offensive action (spoiling attack for example)

I had thought the danger zone lasted into 85 or so. Clearly not.  

I think a big reason for them going as far as 82 is once Abrams and Bradley come online in significant numbers that was pretty much the end of the danger zone.

It's really interesting playing through the campaigns and seeing the different between 79 and 82, what a difference 3 years makes

[Open or Closed Hatch, That Is The Question]

I think that depends on the tank but most tanks in the late 80's would probably still benefit from commander out

Many of the fancier optics would have only been for gunners sights and dual sights didn't become standard until the 00's
