Not Seeing Ardennes Map with AB1943

I just added the AB1943 mod. I selected the AB1943 as my database. I then launch AB and try to generate a mission. The screen that lets me select the map does not show the Ardennes or Northern East Italy maps. What do I need to do to show these?
BTW-other than not showing these maps, the mod works fine.

Thanks!

Do you have the DLCs which add the maps?

The maps have been added and I can see them in Armored Brigade\data\map folder along with other map folders like fulda_gap and fort_irwin_ntc.

They cannot be played without DLCs.

What do you mean by DLC? And where can I find them?

Ok, I now understand I have to buy and download the Armored Brigade Nation Pack: France - Belgium to get these maps.

The North-East Italy map is added in the Italy-Yugoslavia DLC.

I got it all working. I bought the Armored Brigade Nation Pack: France - Belgium and downloaded it. I tried just installing it but while I could "see" the French and Belgium forces, I still couldn't see the Ardennes maps. So I uninstalled AB, re-installed it, did all the update to v 1.066, installed the Armored Brigade Nation Pack: France - Belgium pack, and installed AB1943. It is all working now.
