Mmm, if there are still objections, perhaps a better synonym could be used, but I personally like it.
WIP - Operation Entschlacken

Yes. I chose it for purification and the fact that to an english speaker, entschlacken sounds very rough. It also means to remove slag. This is very dirty work. The whole idea is a metaphor for the battlefield I am trying to portray. The Germans are trying to purify these lands by removing the Russian occupation. However, it is going to be brutal, dirty, and difficult, just like removing slag.
However, I am drawing away from that name because it seems too harsh.

Dude, it's your map and you should name it of course. As a native German speaker it just sounds strange to me. There are many Germans still playing the game, just keep that in mind.
I give you some German words (with translation, that might fit your map better).
Wintersturm - winter storm
Wintergewitter - winter shower
Winterwald - winter forrest
Verfallen/Zersetzen - to decay

Huge update guys. I updated the color of the map. I really like it. This set of pictures will show sort of a walk through of the map based on both sides.
Germans running through artillery:
Finding a wall for cover:
Thinking about whether or not to retreat or run across that field of death:
Moving past the field attacking the village:
Russian rushing to defend the fields:
It's rough out there:
Russians rushing to defend the village:
Russian soldier's forming up on their commander
Fire!
Into the trenches!
Getting ready to ambush those germans:
Hope you guys enjoy!

Good news! The map is very playable at this stage. However, germans bots are beating the russian bots. The reinforcements were 500 russians to 400 germans. After 20 minutes of play, it was 30 russians to 250 germans. I'm not sure what is happening here. So far, the map takes around 30 minutes to complete with the bots.
I added another objective with a new total of eight objectives. There are still some minor ai pathing issues. I still have to decorate the area with more foilage and objects. Here are some screenshots for you guys to enjoy.

Best is to test the maps with human players. Unlike humans bots actually
do what you expect them to do. Which is go for the objective and cap it.
They won't test choke points they won't lay somewhere shooting at players without care for a capzone and bots won't spawnkill. They run straight for the objective.
You forgot the most important point: Bots ALWAYS downloaded and run the latest version of a map
Map looks great!
