Ever wonder why the one map is named Baltic??  ;)

Everyones good friend Vilkas told me one year that his house is near V69 on that map. I always try to avoid that area when bombing now.  :D :salute

AvA & SEA terrains are based on real world geography.  MA terrains have to be based on a fair layout for all 3 sides.

Hoho, I recall getting a personal message from the fighter escort leader as I flew my B-17 towards the Ruhr during a Special Event. He informed me that our primary target was his home town and he was feeling strangely apprehensive. I asked him for his home address and told him not to worry, I'd ask the bombardier to take special care not to bomb his house.

 :cool:

Well, we could have MA maps based in Iowa, Nebraska, Missouri, and Kansas. It's so flat out here that there would be no side favoring. No CV's though. :frown:

Kansas terrain? 1000 bonus perkies to whoever shoots down that balloon carrying the ruby-slippered girl and the yappy li'l dog.

The wish is still valid because we only have ~3 special event terrains with proper textures, coastlines, etc.

How about someone doing the russian front... Or even one of North Africa.. Or let's do one of australia and the island hopping campaign in the south pacific.

or someone could do one on south La. where if bombs don't hit something solid they get sucked down into the swamp never to be seen, heard from ,or explode ever again. Of course that would give the crabs and crawfish something to play with.... :banana:
