Salute!

And Thank You Sir!

I've only seen a tiny bit of it, but this map has its own "feel" and I like it!

BTW, I had fun going Loop-Dee-Loop" with you last night, that was a fun fight!

Yup, the atttention to detail is prety impresive, Battlefields for tanks, House hear and their around vehical spawns, great tiles,Cool PT spawns, the bases layout is realy cool to, some of the best fighting I have had was between 55 and 54 last night.

Flew in it last night for the first time.   Mouth agape the whole time.  As a former map creator of a game I shall not mention, I can say without a doubt that this map represents some of the most difficult European landscape.  Particularly because of the Grecian archepelago.  Yet, this map brings it out in fine detail.   The immersion it provides reaches new levels.  And you can almost smell the olives :cool:

10Bears, well done sir.

Yes this map is very very nice, I especially love the low clouds!..
If time only changed faster and we had night/sunset/rise it would really be great lookin but for some reason noone but me can see at night!  Wish Icons could be reduced to like 500 yards, night and day, that would be cool, you would actuelly have to LOOK for your enemeis!!

Agreed, one of the better maps for the CT I have seen.

Excellent job, even if you don't know how to spell beer:D

Thx Fellas.. these kind words mean alot to me.

Post like these give "e" to guys like me, Nuttz, Sundog and the others to work up new maps.

I'm working on Hungary now. Nice kingdom.. I'ts like a big valley with Budapest right in the middle. Also making a second farmland tile..(and all the corner pieces) so the effect is you fly for miles without seeing the same farm pattern. Should look good.

Was also thinking of approching Dave Flores (Nuttz) about a BIG project.. 1024x MA map w/ 200+ bases. I liked his outline he showed us a few months ago.

Nuttz has ideas how to make the forest IL2 like.. so I'm all up on that :)

Had second thoughts about that with the reaction to the AK desert map... Sheesh some of the ma players were very rude to the AKs.. my skin ain't as thick as theirs.

Now you guys need to lobby Bradys to turn on friendly collisions and create a 3rd country for Greece :)..

I almost asked the Staff guyes about it then...It came to me.....

  Imagine spawning on the runway at the same time somewone else does.


   Man I cant Wait for that Hungery Map, It would give us another Great Eastern Front Map, and one we could use the new Tiger On WOOOHOOO!. Pluss the La-7 and for all those who want a nice 44/45 plane set the only map we have right now that is time approparate for that for the Russians is the Kuriels Map.

 Again TY 10Bears.

Fire me off an email and i'll send you what i did. also I would like to ask you a few questions about your Greece map. I'd let you see my maps but I can't host H2h with my firewall.

you could stagger the plane entry points, that would give you a total of 9 for each field,same with bombers. Still it would be rolling the dice on takeoff. Also if some nitwit wanted to "ruin" everyone elses fun, just sitting on a spawn would,,,  well you see were i'm going with this.

NUTTZ u get my emails a while bac?

 Was woundering if maybe you felt inspired and could do a map for the CT, somthing that has not been done like:

 The East Indies: good PAC map centered around Borneo, the oil hear is why the Japanese went to war with us after all.

 Okinawa: The whole island cahin with a special spawn for CV's like u did on the kuriels map would make for some awsome CV action, you could just stick a couple prts in the corbner of the map for the CV's which in effect would be the US/British and the Japanes would be on the islands.

South East China: this are saw often forgoten battles between Alied forces and the Japanese as well as some magor airbattles in 44/45 Kweichow, Hunan,Kiangs Fukien and Kwangtung provences.

 I do not think anyone is working on these areas, but as you well know the CM's do not share what they know with me. any one of these would make for a cool map.

Bradys,

Says *Midair* friendly collisions.. so you should be able to take off.. We don't know cause nobodys ever tried it.

Imagine this: your tooling along in your 202 and suddenly a flock of 109s are barring down on you like a bunch of dasy chainers.. you pull up at the last second -- they pull up too but slam into each other to a man..

LOL!!!

I mean... you'd have to get a fork lift to pull yourself off the floor! You'd have to be rushed to the hospital for laughing too hard.

Yeah get Nuttz on a project.

Dont forget the moon project.. now that we can make the sun or moon earth and alter the sky..
