I was looking at the screenshots and noticed the maps seeming a bit bare. Are the ones uploaded like Nijmegen bridge 'in the process' or finished?

Love them. I was just wondering because some maps had some bare parts like in the Nijmegen bridge map. Where, to the south-west of the K.Lodewijk-Plein its a bit bare. So far they look great and true to form!

I made the maps using aireals and maps. i try to make them as historical accurate as possible. but i cant get it 100% or on the right scale. im still looking for a solution to get tanks to manouvre from the south to the north river bank on the arnhem map. as the bridge with its exits is far to long to fit in on the map so maybe i'll make the south side short and fit it in to the map to make manouvreability possible....altough it cuts back realism. it will enhance playabillity. the same goes for the north side of nijmegen map

Hi Buck, I see your situation and feel enhancing the playability would be best. Realism and games always cant go hand in hand. Maybe shortening the river widths on the Nijmegen and Arnhem bridge maps and adding some sort of material to the north side of Nijmegen and south side of Arnhem bridge. Material being houses and such, for the German player to have something to fall back on. Then again you don’t want to get stuck in (as the Allied player) having to run across the bridge under fire to get the last vl. What could be done is eliminating the north Nijmegen side and south Arnhem side. Extending it further south on the Nijmegen map and further north on the Arnhem map. In the process only showing half the bridge and showing a "to (wherever)" vl on the middle part of the bridge. This would be realistic as you are only showing the places where the battle was truly fought. As you see on the SS Capt. Euling's sketch map, he escaped Nijmegen to the east not even using the bridge. British soldiers in Arnhem defended mainly from being attacked on their side of the bridge (North side). German attempts to cross the Arnhem bridge from the south were disaster’s. Now this might seem like a drastic idea but I would rather enjoy battling it out in the thickness of the Dutch cities. |
