Maybe Lobster Knows About Something About This?

Post by pz501 »

Over on the Operation Barbarossa website there is mention of a "massive 2.5km scale" map (and I assume scenario) being developed using TOAW. I wonder if this is still active, or has it been dropped?

Lobster, do you know anything about it? I ask because of the link in your signature.

BTW, the Barbarossa books are great. A goldmine of information for anyone interested in Barbarossa, or the East Front in general.

No, it has not been dropped. It's not supposed to be available until the same time or shortly after the last book.

Thanks for the reply. The map/scenario I'm sure will be as high quality as the books are. Looking forward to it when done.

AFAIK, and I am sure Lobster will confirm it, Nigel Askey (the author of the excellent Barbarossa books) uses the TOAW in order to simulate the course of Barbarossa. About the monster ever being dumped into the scenario section, that I do not know. Best bet is to ask Lobster or Nigel.
