I like the idea of narrow waterways that will support cv's leading to the center of the map...I can see now playing chicken with cv groups as the guns all fire at each other...if narrow waterways make the bases too close from the base, simply move the airfields back a couple miles.  This will help the lvt's also.

A wish of mine would be a little more higher alt terrain.  The higher alt brings in a whole new field of play for some plane types, which I feel just makes things more interesting.  Just got gangbanged by 5 la7's and sick of it? hey go grab a p51b at the higher terrain.   Just my ideas =)

Rivers a great idea, PT runs on a base in WW2online were a hoot.

I hope there is a dedicated area for furballers? You know, 5k hardened bases 10 miles apart with super winds or killer 88mm at 10k.

Just a thought.

I don't care what you call it.... I like it if the field spacing is as you say...  Oh... seems like the two bottom countries can't attack each other with cv's.

I like the 2 narrow strands of bases on the coastline and just inland of each front. Nice narrow fronts make for good gameplay imo.  There's also the wider 2 or 3 wide front near the center of the map for variety.  It looks promising.

Looks good,

My only thought...


Narrow fronts may seem to give good gameplay but....

Usually they just end up causing a stalemate.  Just a huge furball, that only the team with the biggest numbers can push through and even then it takes luck...

Narrow fronts..? may as well make it a 256x256 map...
Seriously..

A suggestion
« Reply #40 on: September 07, 2003, 04:36:31 PM »
Fester,

Very good start on the map!

I want to suggest something to help with the cv's.  Include a lake in the center of each homeland with rivers to various points.  Perhaps two or three ports can be located in these lakes.

Just for fun I included also an airfield in the center of each lake to help defend the ports.

If a part of a map is being overrun then a sneaking cv can come up from behind the conquers and re-take a base or two stealthily.  Or just help to defend a base under attack.

Also imagine sneaking a cv into an enemy lake :)

Anyway, pictures are worth more than words, so here ya go...

Looks promising, particularly after the addition of water-features.

Fester on taking the time to build a map and looking for feedback from the group.

Drunky, I really like the idea of the centre lakes and think it's a good addition. As it's something different to any other map. Be interesting to see how the gameplay/strat would evolve with having those lakes. That's if they can be fit into the map with sufficent size to be made useful for CV's.

Plus it makes the map look totally different from Eternity or Pizza. Or the south west  of England for that matter. LOL
