Finally I had a couple of days time and designed my first map. It is located in the area of Namur, Belgium.
When the patch is released I'm going to build a battle similar to the "Peiper crosses the Meuse" scenario.
In the meantime I can present one other scenario. One US airborne division against one Volksgrenadier Division. Each starts in different corner and has to secure its objectives, there are ten each. This is similar to the battle of the bases which we know from COTA and HTTR.
Please, let me know what can be improved in terms of mapmaking and scenario building. I had a hard time to determine wich is the right distance between a major river and the next road.
As a result I'm not happy with some places on the map.

Love the map, snce it's very near where I live. I used to live even closer, in fact - just nth of your nothern boudary. I would download and try, but I'm waiting for the patch. Will this work with the patch?

miya, I believe we actually have the Namur map completed, but we never used it in a scenario. So don't do any more work, I'll check and get back to you on this.

It would be a waste of effort if a map of the Namur area already exist and not used in a scenario.

It's a long story...
Anyway, still digging - the whole thing may be moot.

Terrific map. I'd certainly be interested in a race for the bases scenario but I too await the arrival of the patch

It'll be interesting to compare your map with the "official, unreleased" map if Simovitch can unearth it.
Cheers & thanks for offering up your scenario & map.
