Andrew, maybe this was already mentioned - Fushun-Harbin rail line is broken just NE of Fushun. Also, there are some strange rail links just north of Fushun, with rail going over cultivated areas only up to the hex edge. Press R to see those links.

I think I found and fixed those already, but I will double-check.

Thanks

Andrew befor you finallize can you add some ship repair of about 20 to Vlad and Petropavlovsk

That is a good idea, but only if there are Soviet ships added to a scenario. I think it is moot, otherwise. If some Soviet ships make it into CHS, even only a few, then it would be worthwhile adding these.

Andrew, any tentative ETA on this?

Tentative ETA is 1 week.

Do you know if any of the new bases added will have Base Forces or garrison units on them?

I think I will add a couple:

- A small base force at Port Alice.
- A fixed base force at Mangalore.

Not quite - my map package includes a batch file that can be used to switch between my map and the official map. Using this switcher you can play scenarios made for either map.

You may want to consider restarting with the next rendition of CHS as the Australia Command units will be fixed. In addition the Chinese Theatre will have very signifcant changes as well.

Games started using scenarios designed for the version 3b map will still be playable, but there will be a few minor oddities:

- Dacca will appear to be in the wrong place.
- Some of the transport links, especially in China, will be different.

In addition, you won't get any of the new bases as these are in the scenario data, not the map data.

But the game will still be playable.

Andrew

PS: The map is ready but I yet to uploading it. That will take a while...

[Jaws_slith]

Great news[:)]

So what will be the name of the new version? Will there be a new special also? Thx very much.
