I guess it is about time to update COTA after HTTR.

Oh no.  I'll have to buy this.

I'm looking forward to this.  Excellent news.

CotA was an excellent area of operations for this game. I didn't think it would be and almost didn't buy it because of the theatre - but it turned out to be superb.

Yeah, I'm going to be looking at this. Can't wait!

Plus, I guess this will be an excuse to get the Battle of the Bulge ("basic game").  I was thinking about it.  Now I'm thinking about it some more.

$10 discount if you have a serial number for COTA

its only half COTA  ;)
...there will be a second pack 'Mediterranean'  which covers the other half of COTA, the Crete battles.
I think i wait for that one, i remember playing Crete and Africa more often

Actually, it's an update to BftB. The CotA reference was only there to point the way to the discount.  Believe me, I learned all this the hard way.

Sorry what? It's NOT CotA? It seemed like the CotA list of scenarios to me.  ???

  Sad. Crete was fun.

  Anyway, I can just buy BftheB for now.  Geez I haven't played a Bulge game in....a thankfully forgotten while...Oh how excited I will be (NOT) to see Pieper drive to Stavelot again and again and again and again.  Or why not just kill him with an extra division from the great Allied OB editor in the sky?  Oh, I don't think Jerry's going to be going anywhere much when I get through editing 3 times the US forces into any scenario I play.  He  won't need all that precious fuel when he's getting blown up on the start line.  Fun can be so expensive in terms of the brief electric lives of elite pixelpanzertruppen.

I think Bis means this is a port of CotA into the updated and excellent BftB engine. Like they did with HttR.

As I said, it's not CotA as CotA doesn't run under Win 7.  There are no Crete scenarios; another add-on in coming as MikrGer said.
