Great, too bad no one will use it.
Remove it and put the old tank town back in.

The BigPun account is a year old with 5 posts. And he knows the AH2 craterMA tank arena well enough to ask for it. Then he is declaring the tank crater on this terrain dead on arrival before any players ever spawn into it and shoot at each other. The forum account is a shade so he can throw rocks at people who know him. Every culture on earth has a word for that with the exact same meaning.

If he wants that crater back so bad, he can use the the terrain editor C:\Hitech Creations\Aces High III\ahedit.exe and show this audience his superior product over what I've created. He has the same freedom all of us do to create his terrain to make himself happy. It is not very complicated to operate the terrain editor, just time consuming.

Greebo never intended to create the tank arena on craterMA in the manner it turned out. As soon as he ported that AH2 terrain to AH3, he changed it to what he really wanted it to be back in AH2. I suspect possibly what BigPun really is asking for is AH2 itself back. But, he seems to be very willing to throw rocks when it won't cost him anything like building his own terrain.

Some of my inspiration for the topo features on this terrain.

I probably should have been more diplomatic but the lack of use of the current tank town speaks for itself.
Just trying to help.

I think it was in the fall of 2011 when I started playing AH, so yes I do know craterMA.

The BigPun account is a year old with 5 posts. And he knows the AH2 craterMA tank arena well enough to ask for it.

Water ways are 12-25 miles wide. That is why I have been testing cloud fronts to give cover to task forces so they can survive breaking out of the water ways. So scott do you think you will be able to snipe anyone long range down in that pit??

OK, rock textured clutter tile conversion done, had to do it by hand below 6000ft because the elevation or angle tool would have destroyed much of the already painted terrain of the 9 islands.

1400 miles of fjord x 6 miles for the sides of each fjord = 8400 miles.

Hmmm, what was I working on before all of this, yeppers back to:

-cloud fronts.<---continue testing for 2000ft AGL cloud base fronts to help task groups break out.
-check all fields and spawns one more time.
-make sure all uncapturable are tagged.<---since Greebo tagged his flack bases next to the HQ on craterMA, I'll tag mine also.
-set rides at all fields to MA standard.


The fjords.........
