You are right about the scale where the action takes place, in my opinion the whole Kursk bulge would indeed be too large for close combat, I agree with Dima to stick with a certain area. My choice for the area Belgorod/Prokhorovka is obvious, historically this is the most interesting area and probably the most known for people. Action will take place between the beginning of July and will end at the beginning of August.

I would appreciate if someone could research and provide information about the mentioned area and date (detailed information about units, vehicles and environment)
As I mentioned before in order to create this project I will need the talents of others such as Data editing, research and other. This would give me allot of support for a solid base which is not only created from my point of view.

Correct me if you think otherwise! Smile

About the strat map posted:

This is based on actual terrain height data, the cities and villages are not all shown but the major ones are. Belgorod is the main city and an importnant strategical point as is Porkhorovka, my initial idea is that the player has to achieve one of these goals; Belgorod for the russians as key city to Kharkov and Prokhorovka for the Germans to succeed their operational plans of 'Citadel'
(The actual stratmap will go slightly beyond Belgorod and Prokhorovka)


PS: Thank you for all the feedback and responses!

He guys,

Here's a small update (which I'm planning to do every week) So far Dak_legion is working on the data for an alpha version, with this version I'm planning to create two brand new maps; Belgorod east (station) and a part of prokhorovka. Belgorod east is currently being made (see images for preview)
The past few days I obtained new sounds which contain actual weapon recordings from a distant perspective creating a more realistic and balanced perspective ingame.

Although I probably need help from someone who speaks and understands Russian, both with the voices, data and research.


Kind regards,
mana

Apparently you missed the Donets River in the strategy map. Belgorod has shores in it.

Your right, this strategic map is not the actual map it is just a test and is nothing compared to the actual strat map

Here's a preview of the legendary T34/76 1942. The soldier in the square is placed there for the scale. The background image is the Belgorod railyard map I'm working on, but for the alpha version I'm working on Hill 252.2

Hope you like it!

Thanks!

What do you guys think of the scale?


I have done my math and came to the conclusion that the regular Pitf scaled vehicles are too small to actually fit a soldier inside. I developed these houses and vehicles so a close combat soldier would actually fit realistically. But maybe I missed something?
