As Mipoikel said, this is my and BlauK's new Finnish - Russian map called "Karelia" and coming out soon, I hope. It contains a part of FinRus map and this time in the right 1:1 scale.
It is very historical terrain: almost all the airfields from this area are there and BlauK has made that Viipuri town and castle as it was in 1940. BlauK has made all that awesome custom 3D stuff there, also the textures of that castle and town buildings. My job was the 2D art as airfields and terrain textures and also building custom tiles and airfields with the OE.
This is really a very custom terrain, we have used over 100 custom objects there. The best innovation is our "custom coastline system" which makes possible that there are narrow 50 - 200 yards wide rivers on where you can sail with your PT boat.
I have handmade all the coastlines to this 128 x 128 miles terrain using old and real Karelia maps from 1930 - 1940. All the lakes over 400 yards are there and almost exactly on right places. This allows that you can fly over this terrain using those real maps. Really!
Some special features in this map:
* Viipuri towns bottom and castle
* Small backwoods sand airfields
* Vehicle bases become merged in the landscape
* Capture towns looking more realistic
* Terrain textures (made using aerial photos)
* Terrain tiles (trees are not over fields)
* Bridges with damage models (yes, you can cross those rivers when they are not broken...)
* Isles
* Lighthouses
Those BlauK's briges are very strategical in this map. If they are broken you cannot cross the waterways and capture couple of the important bases. We are using this very much when planning for ex. the battle of Tali-Ihanta with this map.

BATTLE OF TALI-IHANTALA Skuzzy is working with that terrain and we Finnish are waiting hectically it's releasing. It is going to be about 23 Mb res-file, so get ready for long download times with the modems...
