Snow is falling... all around us.... Soviets slayyying.... having fun! Tis the season.... war and much comandinnnng, merry Christmas... everyone!

Awesome community members strike again! This time, map maestro MononlithicBacon brings us a brand new winter (AKA Christmas) 4v4 Map called Nordwind, for all to enjoy!

Not only that, but intrepid mappers Rosbone and Sturmpanther have been busy bug fixing and balancing various maps from the November update. You can see the full list of changes below.

MonolithicBacon's new map has been specifically designed with no deep snow, and limited snow FX, so that performance will be much better for all players compared to other winter maps.

Here are a couple of screenshots to whet your appetites.
