Sergei Posted March 7, 2012 Share Posted March 7, 2012 This should cover nearly all of them, although I think a couple might be missing... http://tinyurl.com/85zganz 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A Canadian Cat Posted March 7, 2012 Share Posted March 7, 2012 I don't think you are doing anything wrong. I just figured Sergei originally wrote it for him self not for us. Very cool set of pins Sergei despite my not being able to read Russian I still think it is very interesting. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chainsaw Posted March 7, 2012 Share Posted March 7, 2012 Hahaha that is not russian, its Finish! You know Finland, where Santa lives and they drink vodka instead of milk etc? Sergei: thanks, nice idea. pretty awsome to see it like that! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sergei Posted March 7, 2012 Author Share Posted March 7, 2012 Ah, it's hard for me to tell because Google services are so heavily localized: if I go to Google.com, it automatically redirects me to Google.fi! If you're not sure what's going on, you can just copy this line below and go to Google Maps and paste it in the search bar: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/55621671/CMBN%20Commonwealth%20module%20locations.kml 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JonS Posted March 7, 2012 Share Posted March 7, 2012 For me the map and the pins (and associated data) are all in a proper language. It's the marginal info that Google puts around the edges that all in Bork!Bork! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A Canadian Cat Posted March 7, 2012 Share Posted March 7, 2012 Well that is cool. I figured all that was written by Sergei. It worked - sort of. I had to copy the link location and search for that since the link text was shortened by the editor. In google maps (e.g. maps.google.ca) search for the string below to see it displayed: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/55621671/CMBN%20Commonwealth%20module%20locations.kml 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MikeyD Posted March 7, 2012 Share Posted March 7, 2012 That is really soooooo cool. I had heard that Sergei was working on this but hadn't seen it yet. You can Google-street-view through the villages and look at the war monument the locals had put up to commemorate the battle you had just fought in the game. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xian Posted March 7, 2012 Share Posted March 7, 2012 I had a look at the village depicted in 'Linking Up and Breaking Out", where Axis forces fight to keep a corridor open whilst being attacked by both American and Canadian forces from North and South - and I discovered that two streets are named after the event: Rue des Americains & Rue des Canadiens Cool. P.S. Great Scenario - they seem harder this time around. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

P.S. Great Scenario - they seem harder this time around. Actually, the forces in that scenario are Polish and American - and the current road names correspond with that! To the south, you have Rue des Americains. To the west, Rue des Canadies (where they captured Saint-Lambert). To the north, Rue des Polonais (that's French for Polish! Because the Poles came from that direction, where the Mont-Ormel ridge lies). And to the east - Rue du General Leclerc, to honour the character in 'Allo 'allo! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
