The northern europe campaign for fritzbot replaced railgun with et_ice because the mod does not have support for train object play (i.e. where a moveable object can be driven by both teams etc). It was planned for a later rev by mal. but had to be dropped when he left to work for ID software.

Fritzbot paks do not include the maps (.bsp etc) to keep the files small and avoid duplication. You should grab the original map off the web if you are playing on your own server before invoking the campaign.
I agree with you about adding some notes someplace for links to the maps, but I find I can google for just about any map I need too. On the otherhand by not putting a specific link in we won't get the ire of the owner who has to pay for the bandwidth.
The campaign files are in two places specific to fritzbot, namely the fritzbot\scripts directory and inside the fritzbot pk3 files. The former files you can edit and rename easily just associate .campaign with notepad. The insides are pretty self explanatory (ignore mapTC it just sets the position of the worldmap in the start menu). For campaigns that are in the pk3 files just use winzip to extract to the former directories, delete them from the pk3 and then exit to edit them as before.
