PvtW Posted January 8, 2014 Author Share Posted January 8, 2014 Thank you, JonS and Wicky. Very useful map. I have a smaller version of that map in a book about the battle for the Markkanaal. I am quite familiar with the area beacause it is close to the city where I grew up. I did a lot of guessing of how it used to look in 1944. Especially the area around the bridge. There used to be a large dock for loading and unloading ships, and less vegetation. Ín the 70's the canal was broadened. And the area west of Den hout used to be a lot swampier then it is now. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mord Posted January 8, 2014 Share Posted January 8, 2014 I find it funny how we are seeing lots of in progress and completed scenarios over the last couple days after all the stuff about CM dying and how nobody is producing anything. And yet you don't see that many people rushing to rate and feedback many of these. Anyway, looks really nice. I love that screenshot of the Sexton lying in wait behind the mill.

JonS Posted January 8, 2014 Share Posted January 8, 2014 Where did you find the map? Library of Congress Enter "Holland topographical" into the search box here: http://memory.loc.gov/ammem/index.html It's the 6th entry on the list (and no.7 is pretty useful too) I like your CM map 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
