I think the next title should be "Brothers in Arms: The Ghost Front"
It adds the whole historical nickname to the area where the Bulge occured, and it ties into Legget haunting Baker.

No, No, No The Ghost front is a stupid name no offense. It should be The bulge Bloody bulge or Breakout form normandy ill come up with some more later.

The Ghost Front was a real name for the time leading up to the German Ardennes Offensive, look it up. It would be a perfect title to tie in with the Brothers in Arms story. Anything with the term "Bulge" in it is too generic; not enough creativity, and it couldn’t be "Breakout From Normandy" either because... well... it just wasn’t a breakout from Normandy. Maybe you could say the "breakout from Normandy" was Market Garden and the fighting that the infantry engaged in while the Allies fought their way to the German border. After this "breakout", the lines settled on the border and the Ardennes area became very quiet and had little to no fighting, hence the name "Ghost Front." After Market Garden, the 101st sat around on rest for a bit, while the winter started to approach. Then the German attack commenced. When the GERMAN breakout occurred, they came across the lines and overran the Allied divisions that were there. All hell broke loose and the 101st was trucked in to take up 10th Armored's old positions while they were being pulled out to reorganize from getting slaughtered by the surprise Panzer attack. "The Ghost Front" then became a different front of ghosts, with the highest mortality rates of all United States battles.
"The Ghost Front" would be a perfect name that goes perfectly with both the story line, and the timeframe. The names you gave either are too generic or don’t tie in with the correct battle period. Ubisoft just doesn’t make games with generic titles.

yeah ghost front is cool. bulge is to weird and it doesnt fit in like earned in blood, road to hill 30 or hells highway. no offence.

"the point of war is to not die for your country but make the other bastard die for his".

Ghost Front would be a good name. The introduction or at least one of the video sequences would have to touchdown on the subject of the name or help the player understand the title without actually explaining it. If you read the reviews and forum posts a good percentage of the players don't understand the timeline, significance, or structure of the battles being played and what they mean to a squad of paratroopers.

Some want the next series to follow corrion or someother squad leader when this is Baker's story. Others want the game to go back to Normandy and Holland as flash backs when fighting in Bastogne and the Ardennes towards the German border has potential.

But now that I say it with the full title Brothers in Arms: Ghost Front just doesn't roll off the tongue right. Feels like I'm about to play an earlier Call of Duty or Medal of Honor. It feels like a name instead of the next chapter in the squad's story.

BIA: Bastogne is a simple name that works but it doesn't have that creative title that means more than the battle: like Earned in Blood which explains Red's sacrifices, through his finger, his daughter, and the blood of others spilt to achieve 2nd Squad leader and the breakout from Normandy. Or Hell's Highway which elaborates on the 2 weeks of constant brutal fighting that took 17,000 allied casualties and put the squad through more troubles than Normandy.

The term Ghost should definitely be included in the title to elaborate as said earlier the historical name for the area and effects of recent pasts on the squad.
