Congrats and thank you so much, Kenai77!   Looks terrific!

It's apparently been up 10 hrs now - so guys how's it playing?

I like it so far, big but the bases are close together which is more important imo

I think it’s for the right mix of size and bases. Good addition.
Back in 2022 after a loooooong break from 2010. Old name Ratpack, same for the BBS.

Squad I did the most tours with were the Excaliburs then The 172nd Rabid Dogs. Still trying to talk Illigaf, Coola, Oldman22, and Joecrow into coming back instead of being boring old farts!

Most important, I can land to my own yard. Between A54-A55.    :D

lots of naval battles and close fights. The knights captured A3 yesterday at 3:30pm eastern and we fought over it til midnight. Like we used to do in the old days.

I love it but haven't had enough time on it.  I must've missed Kenai77's announcement?   I knew he was working on it and following it's development but its appearance in the MA was a happy surprise.

Glad to hear it's playing well!

I like this map.

IMO maps put a face on the game. The more realistic the maps, the more realistic the game appears.
2 cents.

You guys are doing great work.

Thanks.

That's pretty cool.  Between Sofia and Thessaloniki roughly then?   I'm going to buzz your house...

Yes. In a valley west from big mountains approximately half way in distance between 54-55. Made a recce flight over the area and found my roof been made wrong color!!!    :furious

Put a bomb into my neighbors chimney, they probably burn old rubber boots and wet leaves in their fireplace, based on odors.

LOL.

You'll just have to go up and paint your roof to match!

I like that each strat has a AAA farm nearby, but it would be cool if the strat was slightly higher than the farm so the window to stay under the puffy is tighter when attacking strats with an attack plane.  And hopefully goons are disabled at AAA farm to prevent resup spam.

They are disabled,however M3's and gv's are enabled.

I see your point on the strat altitude issue, I'll try to keep that in mind on the next map. :rock
