As the map is now, there is just too much stuff that needs to be worked on or that isn't working the right way. Many many many floating objects, some of them can be abused for clitching (railways are the worst of them). You have to jump into buildings as they are just snapped to the ground, missing links between the flags, wich don't have a logical order or progression. and the performance doesn't seem to be good either.

As I said. The maps looks cool and immersive, but it is the hard truth that you can't play it as it stands now. I prefere to state the things as they are. Sorry for that. I might make a post in the FlH though with more detailed information if I find some time.

-The map was awesome, but some as said some of the buildings are a bit.. strange.

-I also think the Germans should have had 100-150 more tickets.
The draw distance of this map is extremely close, so seeing the advancing Germans is so easy, but seeing the Americans while they are in prone position or in a foxhole is damn hard. The fog and the film grain makes them blend in so well. We [The Germans] were easy targets while advancing.

-We could get close and into the cap zones by using the scout class, but that damn ZF 41 scope is extremely ineffective and a pain in the ass to operate in close quarters. I would have preferred a regular k98 instead.

-The StuKa is also rendered useless because of the draw distance. I tried flying it in single player, but could not bomb effectively.


This is by all means not a bad map, the map is awesome! But some tuning would have been good. Yes, I want German bias!

Liberation of Bastogne


"XLVII Panzer Corps commander Gen. von Lüttwitz decided to encircle Bastogne and strike from the south and southwest. The American soldiers were outnumbered approximately 5-1 and were lacking in cold-weather gear, ammunition, food, medical supplies, and senior leadership. By nightfall on the 21st December the conglomeration of airborne and armored infantry forces were recognized by both sides as being surrounded. However, the 101st. held its original positions and repulsed tank and infantry assaults that followed. Allied control of Bastogne was a major obstacle to the German armoured advance. When the 3rd. Army succeeded in punching through to Bastogne from Assensois, the men of the 101st expected to be relieved, but were given orders to resume the offensive... "

To clarify: We play a 5 flag layout with the original flags Marvie, Wardin and Magaret. New flags are "trainstation" in the map center and "bunkers" in the North West forest. Both teams have uncapturable mainbases.There is a second main base for Allies in the South-West for the artillery and the planes. Axis start defending the 5 flags, Allies attack.

Operation Greif


"Waffen-SS commando Otto Skorzeny had become one of Hitler's favorites following the success of "Operation Panzerfaust" in which he had supervised the kidnapping of Miklós Horthy, Jr., the son of Hungary's Regent. Skorzeny was to form a special brigade - Panzer Brigade 150 - for a very special purpose: "I want you to command a group of American and British troops and get them across the Meuse and seize one of the bridges. Not, my dear Skorzeny, real Americans or British. I want you to create special units wearing American and British uniforms. They will travel in captured Allied tanks. Think of the confusion you could cause! I envisage a whole string of false orders which will upset communications and attack morale." —Hitler, The Black Angels, 1979"

Below is a small video regarding Operation Greif . Very interesting to watch.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vo-f8Yxm9uY

"Hitlers Operation Greif - at the battle of the bulgeA special false flag operation commanded by Waffen-SS commando Otto Skorzeny during the Battle of the Bulge. The operation was the brainchild of Adolf Hitler, and its purpose was to capture one or more of the bridges over the Meuse river before they could be destroyed. German soldiers in captured US Army uniforms and using some US vehicles were to cause confusion in the rear of the Allied lines. A lack of vehicles, uniforms and equipment limited the operation and it never achieved its original aim of securing the Meuse bridges."
