Adds more to the COH game but the campaigns are disappointing.

I loved the original but as far as add-ons go this one is okay. The Brits and German forces are good but not as fun to play or easy to play with as the US troops but of course they add something to the original game although you could argue they should have been there in the original. It seems many companies deliberately withhold elements so they can make an add-on these days.
What's really disappointing about this game is the campaigns. The original had superb campaigns which were well thought out and had major epic battles. These campaigns are short and dull especially the german campaign and many use the same map but the british campaign is fairly good but far too easy on normal mode.

Other things I thought would be addressed in the add-on were the AI of the computer players in skirmish modes. They don't seem to create troops that are needed at that specific time (defensive otr offensive). On one map I had 2vs3 (myself and expert CPU vs 3 german expert CPU) and spent literally 5 hours desperately defending the one bridge into our base from constant panzer/panther attack maniy because the ally CPU kept creating m4 rocket tanks and then tried to drive them through the panzers to attack their base. Of course they lasted barely 10 seconds and several minutes later it would create another and do the same thing. The only reason why we werent wiped out was the fact I was british and they have awesome artillery and AT guns and of course the map was favourable to defense.
Also if you use the 'attack here' 'defend here' 'capture here' the computer is dumb as hell. After they have done the command they just sit around doing nothing and then get wiped out by artillery or something which is hugely frustrating when they have a massive group and means you'll be on the back foot for a while.

All in all like I say it's okay and probably a must for multiplayer users but I think there could have been more and better thought out campaigns. Maybe another US campaign would have been nice.
