http://forums.relicnews.com/showthread.php?t=188608http://www.bpcoh.com/news.phpI believe this is the first tournament to do the 'War For Europe' theme. Breaking Point is proud to announce the launch of BPCOH! The BPCOH team has been working hard these past few months in developing a Tour Of Duty system for COH. Codog & Ghost will be leading this tournament and they have a great vision for this game in BP. We know they will continue what makes BP a special place to play in.
Welcom to BPCOH where you will experience a great rts gamin experience playing in BP. Welcome Soldier to your first Tour Of Duty! Europe is at war and your participation contributes to the final outcomes.
BPFILMS has released the BPCOH Launch Trailer here or you can see it here on the frontpage flash! http://www.bpcoh.com/e107_plugins/forum/forum_viewtopic.php?215

Epic intro movie, holy shit.
Is this just a vCoH tournament with a 'war for europe' tournament or is it actually modified gameplay?
This would be so much better with a Europe in Ruins style approach...

Can't tell. They have a flash map on their site, but no interaction. I believe it's pure vCOH with each battle going toward the 'standings'.

Not entirely sure what it's all about, they don't give any information, just a shiny trailer... not impressed if it's just vCoH.

Lame.
Judging by their forum, they're actually willing to mod but have no intention of going on an advanced level.
You should really consider contacting them, EiR + this tournament would be an amazing promotion stunt.

Sounds like fun, but ill have to see how they mod the game. If they just use vanilla CoH it will probably suck imo.

Correct it's just vanilla. However, their war map looks really nice... too bad we can't integrate (read steal) it for EIR. |

it will suck for those who have been enlightened, for many VCoH is still the greatest RTS out there. |

http://www.bpcoh.com/e107_plugins/forum/forum_viewtopic.php?263Follow that link, they are modding it themselves, No new skins it seems, and no call in units since everything will be built....

Puddin' spamtmi cant really blame smokaz i mean playing against puddin is like trying to fight off breast cancer. You might win and do it and be a bad ass but you'll feel sick and mutilated forever.
Puddin' spamtm is soulcrushing... what's hard to understand about that?

Seems like they didn't do their historical accuracy homework for the warmap  . |

I can fix the really bad flaws regarding the country outlines, but other than that, I'm really clueless when it comes to historical accuracy  . About the highway system for sector outline, hmmm, thats debatable IMO. Maybe using the same highway system, but in a extremely loose manner, to fix any of the obvious flaws (hint france's beach). |

I think they are breaking Germany in 2 to make an extra sector. However the Vichy France thing is pretty inexcusable |

But still germany and all other nations have their post-war/modern borders and not the pre-WW2 borders.

Yeah,
this "mod" smells like a big pile of fail
first off, if you follow puddin's link, you'll notice this cherry from the site admin:
"We have noone who can skin or code. So at this point the mod consists of basic changes. But well see how it goes. "
Then, if you look at their other "Breaking Point" project, which is for CoD4 and has apparently been going on for a while, you'll see a few other oddities....
In the FAQ section.....
1. INTRODUCTION
Introduction
* TBAs
GC World
* TBA
Start As A Soldier
* TBA
Become A Leader
* TBA
Mission Days
* TBA
The Canon of GC World
* TBA
The only persistency you gain by playing and posting appears to be
"Tour Experience Perks
* When a player has reached a certain amount of points (25), he will gain perks on the forums: Use of Signature Area, maximum pm's in their box raised, and unlimited downloads a day,"
my personal favorite though....
While its free to play, if you want to be able to pick which side of the conflict you're fighting for (and thus play with your friends) that'll be 15 bucks. Want the ability to form a clan? 13 bucks.
This is a for-profit gig
earns a big fat meh from Andy
