theforger Posted May 19, 2020 Share Posted May 19, 2020 Hi I stumbled across these resources in researching map making for a campaign I'm building. The detail of the Stavelot Town Plan is fantastic. If anyone has similar for towns and villages on Peiper's route including Malmedy for Skorzeny's attack and Trois Points I'd be grateful. http://www.oldhickory30th.com/Stavelot PDF Map File.pdf And http://www.oldhickory30th.com/Maps.htm Maps of December 18th-25th action of the Leibstandarte Adolf Hitler (1st SS Panzer Division), Battle of the Ardennes, from the LAH unit history books, German archives, BA-MA Freiburg, Germany. If anyone has access to the 16th/17th for the above, I would really appreciate it. Found these useful from the late 1890's. http://www.deutschefotothek.de/documents/obj/71056459/df_dk_0010001_5502 I'm also using old post cards and the occasional German recon from their 1940's advance in the same area. https://www.ak-ansichtskarten.de/ak/93-carte-postale-ancienne/44289-Ville-de-Stavelot/5828339-AK-Stavelot-les-tanneries-au-bord-de-l-etang/?&lang=6 https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Gare-Stavelot-CPancienne.jpg Cheers 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeyD Posted May 19, 2020 Share Posted May 19, 2020 Google Earth is a pretty good resource for the Ardennes because the place hasn't changed very much. Google Earth is useless in other regions because your battle field is now highways and shopping malls and suburban tract housing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

theforger Posted May 28, 2020 Author Share Posted May 28, 2020 Added The Leibstandarte Part IV and Map book by Ralf Tiemann to my collection. The Map book does contain the missing maps I was after. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
