Campaign structure

[zitadelle]

Is there any chance to have the campaigne structure posted here by someone from ACTiveGaming. It would help to have the official names of the missions and random maps and the mission description while discussing problems with them. You did the same with Mission Kursk and I was quite happy with it.

Thanks and Greets Zit

Ok, after weeks of waiting I actually found a post from ACTiveGaming at CDV

So I will post it here too:
