I44_John from Invasion 1944 Mod has informed us about their projected "Wacht am Rhein" campaign for ArmA2 on our Forums.
We decided about a year ago that we wanted to go back to the Wacht am Rhein project once we were finished with the Normandy project for ArmA1. The Normandy project will be ported to ArmA2, which is our first priority, but once this is completed, little if any expanding of the project is expected. The Ardennes offensive will take priority after that.
Traditionally, we have always focused on singleplayer (SP), with the hope that the mod would be as usable as possible in multiplayer (MP). However, due to improvements in internet connection speeds and changes in the gaming industry over the years, multiplayer gaming has now become our main focus. We will also make it possible for the campaign to be played in SP, but it will be orientated primarily towards MP.
We aim to create a character driven storyline somewhat similar to that of BIS' "Razor" campaign (as far as time and technology permits anyway). The campaign is projected to consist of 4-7 Co-op missions, in which the player will be the tank commander of a Waffen SS tank crew in the Kampfgruppe Peiper of the 1.SS "Leibstandarte" division (that's right, you'll be playing as a German). We realize that this is a unit with a somewhat tainted reputation because of the actions of some of it's members during the battle of the Bulge. We will however continue to stand by our decision to include any symbols that were used (mostly the swastika and runes) to not detract from the realism. The missions will be small to medium-sized, really large tank/combined arms battles are reserved for separate missions (SP and MP).
