I find CotA is better than HTTR as the UI is improved....I think CotA is worth buying...

Thanks Wodin - have been toying with the idea since getting BFTB - is there much difference between BFTB and COTA ?

Gameplay wise not really...nothing you'd notice...have look at the BftB forum and see what new features BftB has...the obvious differences are being able to see a detailed breakdown of equipment and being able to time attacks etc...apart from that the UI is pretty much the same, the UI improvements over HTTR when CotA came out where fairly noticeable and I found it alot easier to play.

Also there are some good user made scenarios covering Malta and Norway and a few set in Africa...

I might consider getting this, actually. It sounds pretty good. Does anyone know if there are any plans to release any of the CotA scenarios for BftB, though? In that case, I probably wouldn't bother with CotA.

Converting COTA has been discussed internally. There is a lot of work to be done with estabs and scenarios to make that happen, but there is no plan that I know of to start the work in the near or distant future.

I'd go for it- substitute it for old CotA, which will become a sought-after collector's item [;)].

One more thought- Panther might as well capitalize on an updated Cota since someone will recreate it anyhow.

Alright, thanks. In that case, I guess I'll put CotA on my list of games to purchase.

I can't help but feel a little sad that I only discovered these games because of the price controversy. I could've been enjoying them for years already.

Hoping to get these 12 scenarios completed by the end of October for a release by December.

Scenario ready List:

Arnhem - Historical Campaign

Eindhoven - Historical Campaign
Eindhoven - Terror of the Tyne Tees
Eindhoven - Big Chill Breakout

Nijmegen - Historical Campaign
Nijmegen - Molenhoek Counterattack
Nijmegen - Mook Right Hook

Neerpelt - Historical Campaign
Neerpelt - Joe's Bridge

in the works:
Arnhem Second Wave, Arnhem - Keeping the Island afloat, Arnhem - Final Phase

So this means that if i only own BFTB i will be able to play these updated HTTR scenarios if i buy the BFTB DLC ?
Because i hope it was no mistake to buy BFTB if HTTR or COTA would be needed to play any of the upcoming DLC's for BFTB !
