Did they say when? I might hold off on releasing my next map if they're making British Paras available.

Just the tantalizing word 'imminent' :?

Although looking at the thread where Pip put imminent <here> I'm not sure if, in the context it was being used, i.e Objective-based MP, that it'll be the same update :wink: .... in which case this update should be sooner than imminent! Confused yet?
