Ok, so my first question is thus: how big is this map compared to maps like Alam Halfa or El Alemein?  It looks big, but its hard to judge the size because there is no reference to scale it properly.

Love the glider and cant wait to play that map

Question on the minimap ther are 3 CP/Gray spots explain pls?? are they like regular flags just gray from the start off the round but both teams can cap them?

from a feeling i would say it is about the size of el alamein but could be less it is hard to judge these things.

definitely one of my favorite maps, you get awesome infantry battles in the cagny area and overall tank fights on the open fields , well camouflaged AT gun positions and some little kitty's strolling around marking their territory.

as on all maps where once team attacks and the other defends the attacking tommys need to work together big time to overcome great obstacles on this map.

Judging from the minimap the cagny area seems to be about the size of the sidi rezegh airfield.

Lovely map, I loved the old Goodwood, and I bet I'll love this one too.  As for the Horsa, well....very nice hint ;)

I'm not sure of the exact size of Goodwood, but it plays alot larger than it actually is, so no need to worry. Long range tank kills will still feel just as good as they do on El Al if not better.

are there plenty of backcappings?  there are too many flags for a map without push!

btw if i suggest a push it would be like that of siege of tobruk.

GLIDERS!!! I CAN'T F*&KING BELIEVE IT  :o 

One question: are they flyable ?

And I must say Operation Goodwood looks awesomely stunning, so much detail is put in.

Good work FH guys  :)

I want everyone on this forum to pray that glider is flyable. On Pegasus. Everyone think about that for a minute
