A map in PDF format

Command Ops: Battles From The Bulge takes the highly acclaimed Airborne Assault engine back to the West Front for the crucial engagements during the Ardennes Offensive. Test your command skills in the fiery crucible of Airborne Assault’s “pausable continuous time” uber-realistic game engine. It's up to you to develop the strategy, issue the orders, set the pace, and try to win the laurels of victory in the cold, shadowy Ardennes.
Command Ops: Highway to the Reich brings us to the setting of one of the most epic and controversial battles of World War II: Operation Market-Garden, covering every major engagement along Hell’s Highway, from the surprise capture of Joe’s Bridge by the Irish Guards a week before the offensive to the final battles on “The Island” south of Arnhem.

A map in PDF format

Post by Fred98 »

It would be handy if there were a map of the area produced in PDF format. The map could appear in the "Menus" folder when the game is installed.

Then each battle that comes with the game, would be marked with a rectangle on the map together with the date.

It menas that each scenario can be easily placed in histoircal context by the players.

Joe,

Yes good idea.

Did you know about the COTA scenario preview ? And what do you think about it ?

Maybe it can be done for BFTB as well.

[font="compatilfact lt regular"]In the back of the manual, the scenarios are listed in order of difficulty. This is a great idea![/font]

[font="compatilfact lt regular"]In Battles from the Bulge the date takes on great importance because in the early part of the battle the Germans basically had the material advantage and in the latter part the Allies had it.[/font]

As a matter of facts, the Excel version of the table in the manual can be downloaded from The Drop Zone : here.
The latest column (Column J) has the start date and time of all the sceanrios. Just sort the table by Column J.

I hope this helps,
