Added 1 additional Vbase to each country. Spawn points have been set for all 3 countries. Still working individual base terrain issues, hills valleys, trees etc. etc. (fun stuff  :D)

NATOMA Map 13, all bases set, spawn points set. Need to check each port to insure no "feet dry spawns", will also try to check shore based towns. Want to thank Kong for his work on discovering how "feet dry spawns" work. Next is Strat spawns and Flak bases.

Yay looks great!
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!

That’s just bada*s.
A2 is close to my neck of the woods, right below Lake Mich. can stop at home for coffee. <blank stare>
Weird, my childhood home was not built yet. Is this the Twilight Zone time machine!?!

Hard to say… maybe on the front line bases since it only takes a couple fields to be in strat territory. All those flak bases are going to be fun lol

Maybe one too many task groups or perhaps still have four sets but not all be CV/BB pairs?

Get it in the rotation so we can play it for a few weeks and get some feedback. I will probably never see it lol. My favorite maps rarely show up when I am playing.

As someone said to me
“I won’t even critique it, I’m just glad someone is doing it”.

Thanks for your dedication of your free time.

It is available for offline play or a custom arena. It is not in rotation for the MA yet. I am sure there are some bugs that need correcting.  :aok

Oh I will do that for sure! Thank you for picking up on my fever dream suggestion however long ago it was. 25 years and we finally have the USA to putter around in.

 :salute Kenai and all the cartographers!

For some reason my favorite maps seem to elude my time zone. Baltic, NDisles, and Pizza. I’m old school what can I say.  :old:

Going to make another attempt at a new Sweden/Finland map (Baltic area). I had one almost done, and somehow I corrupted the file and lost it all. Got smart, fling daily and weekly backups now. Also looking at one Down Under.

Would a world map be too big. The classic flat earth atlas style.

Not sure how that would work. One of the problems with be getting elevation date that is not wrapped around the earth. Not sure how you flatten it out.

 I have uploaded what I believe is the final version of NATOMA to the server. Next step is to submit it to Hitech for insertion into rotation. Thanks to Kong for his work on investigating the "Feet Dry Spawn" issue, all ports and town have been checked to insure FDS are not available.
