Here's a sneak peek at the French 11th Regiment de Chasseurs of the Forces Françaises à Berlin. Equipped with 54 AMX-30B2s. Notice the armour (or lack thereof). Still have to do the infantry regiment and it's equipment yet.

Nice. Even if I believe you're putting a bit too much of armor!

... I've picked up some mapping work for another wargame company. ...

Congratulations. I'm looking forward to what you can do for CO2 - I like your first results. Don't have sufficient time to to play it, but your overview maps will help drawing me in again.

those overview maps are great can't wait to see the rest of them. I wonder what you could do to spruce up the game maps.

The game maps are drawn with vectors and those are filled by tiling very small textures so probably not a huge amount. Having said that though, there was a mod for COTA called Back to Paper which gave the maps a paper-looking texture and looked great so I might have a go one day.

Just make sure, absolutely sure, that they understand that we are just 'loaning' you to them for a bit. This isn't to become a permanent arrangement!!! [X(]

Good Hunting.

Plotter,

Are you making a "Google Earth Battlefield Tour" for OC2 to?

LOL. I'll pass that on to Dave. As Arnie says, "I'll Be Back!"

Nope, just maps this time. You can still get the BFTB one from matrix and I did the maps for COTA as well if you check that forum.

Just got reminded of this map and scenario and came to check on it. Everything is very handsome. Looking forward to it when you have time to finish!

A whole campaign. It deserves an expansion in its own. Terrific job.

Lol. Yep, I'm not sure how long this will take but I'm going to juggle between this and CO2 as I really want this scenario to see the light of day.

I made the classic mistake of making the map before doing my research on the scenario. I've found that I need to give the airports some space as they were major objectives and there will probably be some fierce scraps for them.

You're welcome.[:)] They were fairly easy and quick to do as I'd already done the base map and Paul provided some nicely detailed maps for the hypothetical scenarios.

Thanks.[:)] I'm only envisaging one scenario at this stage as the battle was only expecting to last 2 days. It will be a big one though.

That map defiantly deserves a campaign. Let MR get a hold of it, he could probably come with a campaign we can beat our heads against.

I really appreciate you mod guys. Through out the years i've attempted with various games to make maps. I just always fizzle out shortly after starting, as i would rather play than mod.In my small feeble attempts i became aware of the time requirements to do map mods and scenarios for games. We all have life's time constraints and i appreciate the fact you guys spend your free time improving games and my enjoyment of those games through your mods, thanks.

Wow.. That would be very cool for a massive scenario!

Well done!
