I confess I have not gotten around on PdH. Does the port have an MG in it though? Will have to check it out by creating a multiplayer game for one. <- forever alone/curious

I don't think it has an mg in that port, but one further back covering the entrance, plus one MG34 in the Tobruk hatch.

Just ran around on PdH trying to take some screenshots to compare with my photos, but I couldn't even figure out where I took them which led to not finding them in FH2 either  :-[ Dumb me. Someone else feel free to attempt it.

While we're talking historical accuracy: why does the Crete map cover such a big area compared to other maps? Wouldn't it be better to just focus on one battle within Crete instead of making a miniature of the Chania/Souda bay area?

I ran about a bit too and like Ts4EVER says there is an MG at the end of the hallway facing the pictured entrance (reminicent of FH1 Charlie Sector west bunker). And on the right side opposite the empty port is another little hidey hole to cover the approach (through probably a death trap for grenades lobbed into the open space).

not all maps are accurate in FH2 in sake of gameplay. This one is actually a remake of very popular bf1942 FH1 map. I wish to see completely changed Crete and Aberdeen someday.

Yes, yes, I know it's a remake. As you said, I'd like to see a revamp of Crete. Either a bigger map or focus on one area instead of a big chunk of Crete cramped into a small map.

That just cracks me up so terribly.

More on topic: Yeah, not bad. Also, perhaps Norman countryside was largely changed since 1944..

Well the map is well liked and that counts for much.

Eehm, no, it is not a remake. Yes, there was a Crete 1941 map in Fh1, but that was different from this one in many aspects, like the Brits had tanks (multiple real ones, not that Vickers thingy) there, and the Germans had a Bf110, etc. It also had a hill full of defenses in the western part of the map, with barbed wire, trenches and AT guns.
