Summary
Company of Heroes: Opposing Fronts heralds a bold new chapter in RTS action, as you are charged with leading two battle-hardened armies across the wartorn landscape of WWII Europe.
It is the summer of 1944, the time for Allied forces to commence two key campaigns. The British 2nd Army fights to gain control of the city of Caen in Normandy, France after a failed D-Day liberation attempt. A road hub, perfect land for an airfield and the two waterways running by the city, makes Caen a vital objective. But such a key location is heavily protected. The 2nd Army must try and survive against the might of the opposing SS division.
While in the German-occupied Netherlands, Allied forces launch the largest airborne invasion in history. Their goal: to secure a series of bridges that would allow for Allied crossing of the Rhine river, Germany's last major natural barrier. The German Panzer elite Kampfgruppe stands in their way and will use all their strength to stop any Allied advance.
