So, you now have all manner of options for watching over the advance of your core troops. Machine guns can lay down covering fire, mortars can rain down shells on dug-in enemies and flamethrowers can chase them out into the open. You've even got the bazookas for taking out enemy tanks when they roll into the fray.

A solid option for those who wanted to expand the operations of the US Marine Corps in the Pacific.

As well as the update for the USMC, there is also a new supplement coming to Battlegroup. Westwall coves the battles on the German border in 1944.
