Thanks Redleg.I've downloaded all your "Dirty Dozens" and I appreciate your efforts in compiling and posting them.Good work!
While I'm here,I would also like to thank David Boutwell for the fine maps.Believe me gentlemen,you improve the SPWAW experience for all of us.

Thank you!

I hope you enjoy trying out some moving train scenarios. Very different and extremely tricky to design.

"Anzio Annie" and "Lucky Train" were a couple of my favorites.

Thanks Fontenoy,

I'm working hard on the Oosterbeek map for my Market-Garden series. It will encompass Wolfheze, the Ede-Arnhem Railway embankment and culvert, the town of Oosterbeek, Johannahoeve Farm (LZ L and S), the towns of Heveadorp and Doorwerth, Driel Ferry crossing and the Rhine River, and much more. It will be the most diverse and, I believe, complicated of all of my maps, as so much research (more even than the others) has had to go into it. And I'm just getting started. In the next few months, I'll be purchasing the two book set on Market-Garden from After the Battle, and the first of two books on the Arnhem battle from the Battleground Europe series.

I don't want to get started on anything that I'll have to scrap and start over on if these books produce new aerial photos or maps that I don't already have. So, I'm kinda dragging my feet for a bit on this one. But when it is released, you'll see it here at Redleg's site.

Stay tuned,

David Boutwell

Hi David,
I already have your Arnhem and Nijmegen maps.I can be very patient waiting for Oosterbeek and the others.In reading your post I was most impressed to see the lengths you go to in order to make an accurate map.Not to mention the expense in purchasing books on your subject.The mark of a true craftsman.
I hope you derive as much pleasure in the making,as I do in the playing of these maps.

Fontenoy,

You'd have to have a hell of a great time on my maps in order to have more fun playing on them than I do making them!
