The North Sea map is coming...

[kanttori]

... on the next week. I hope Skuzzy has time to built it, but my job is ready on the sunday and I send files to the HTC on monday. Maybe we can test it in the CT from the 16th of September... what do you say CT-staff? I have hear that you need hectically new maps there?

Here's couple of pictures from the map:

NORWAY

very nice

Is Tynemouth on the map? Used to live there once...

[Oldman731]

Wow.

Thanks, Kanttori.  It's beautiful.

Time to do "633 Squadron," I suspect.

Tynemouth is near Newcastle upon Tyne and Sunderland, but I have not marked it to the map, because there are two big cities near it.

Time for Mossie Madness

Mossies escorted by RAF 19 & 65 Squadron Mustang IIIs and IVs, or 4th FG Mustangs, B/Cs and Ds.

Could be good fun against 109s and 190s

Can you get flak guns in the mountains surrounding the German shipping in the water below?

Great looking map. I am sure it will be used immediately upon its release to us Staffers.

[Sabre]

I second what Reschke said.  Beautiful job as always, Kantrori:aok .  Can't wait to download it and fly around it off-line.  If it's done by week's end, it would definitely be worth putting up.  We'll discuss it in the CT Staff formum.

The map is now 99% ready, I need only Dux's better Clipboard map which he is creating in this monday evening.

Skuzzy get the files on tuesday morning, so I think he can build it before friday if there are no problems with the terrain and he has time from his other heavy works!

I tried to assign couple of Warships to the fjords and Scapa Flow, but they crashed the Terrain Editor, because the software supposed that they were "Task Groups" even if I had defined them as "Bombable" targets...

I have one idea left with the harbour ships and I try it in this evening: I am going to make those warships really as "Task Groups", but they CANNOT MOVE anywhere from those fjords or Scapa Flow, because the channels to the open sea are very narrow...

I send to this forum a link to the Beta 3 version in this evening (with the old CBM) that the CT Staff and other interested can check the map in the Offline.

Time for Mossie Madness

My thoughts exactly!

Another good one to consider is the 3 front war fought almost the entire war in Norway.  Almost any planeset after 1942 will work.

All the best,

Actually, that would be better than having them as simple map objects, since as fleets they would then be able to throw up a flak barrage.

I want to see this as a snapshot:

Our aircraft served in JG 5.
