I decided to make maps with episodes, beacuse its kind a hard to make all of them with one big step.
The first episode will be in the region of Bremen and Hamburg.
In this way, I will need to work out the details of readability and fullness of map. Well, and understand that it will need someone or not)
It is difficult to say in a few words how this is done. After all of that, I will write a big post on how to do something like that.
So. Here nexet step of Region over Hamburg (forests drawed like a sketch)
full map here

Interestin thing:
Do you remember the scenario Hells Crossroads?
There was a battle in the region near the Rhine, which crossroad of highways A30 and A31 at the center of the map.
So..
I've checked and as on maps of Autobahns 1990 and 80s military map, in 1989 there wasnt part of A31 highway yet.
Yes, I think now the word "crossroads" carries a slightly different meaning, but the region is still very interesting and exciting.
This road was made with separate steps between the 1980 and 1990. back in 1983 the gap was between Hengelo (nl) and Rheine. the part above Bat Bentheim was next and it was finish around 1990. The maps around that time can give different variations of the raid.
I have miss this part of the road on every tripp in 1982/83.
