Maps online at Der Kessel


Recommended Posts

Right after long working hours on a project here at work I've managed to bring the maps section online.

Woopie!!

Real maps or scans of maps will be coming soon this week as I will have more time to do that stuff. =)

enjoy

Hi Mensch,

As I like to see more "real" terrain in CMBO scenarios, I appreciate your initiative.

I made also some CMBO maps based on 1/25.000 topomaps, personal visits and pictures.

By coincidence, I also made a huge operation map about Marnach - including also the acces and the town of Clervaux. So if you don't mind, I would like to submit that one too.

Furthermore, I have several scans of 1/25.000 topomaps of the area around Bastogne and the Ambleve valley in the Belgian Ardennes (La Gleize, Stoumont, Stavelot, Malmedy etc...)

Allthough they are in JPEG format, they take still more then 1 MB each. Maybe you have the tools for compressing them even more.

If you're interestested, I can submit fragments of these maps too.

All maps, I design, have landmarks, townnames and hill elevations included.

Projects I am working on or being tested :

Clervaux - Marnach : Operation, start of the Bulge offensive. This map is very detailed and accurate, but huge. It's that big, the AI gets lost.

Operation Switchback : Operation Oktober 1944 : Canadians have to cross the Leopold canal and fight in the muddy polders of Flemish/Dutch Zealand, in order to clear the Breskens Pocket (south bank of the Scheldt Estuary)

Battles :

Longvilly : 12.000 pts Battle east of Bastogne.

Chateau de Neffe : Team Cherry stops the Pz-grenadiers of Bayerlein at the hamlet of Neffe (Bastogne)

Dasburg : Panzer Lehr crosses the river Our (Luxemburg) in the morning of Dec 16, 1944.

Krombach : Another spot at the Our river used for the crossing of german forces at the beginning of the Bulge. Later in January 1945, the Americans used the same crossing in order to push the Germans back into Germany. So you can use the map twice :)

Let me know if you're interested and I'll send them to you with more detailed descriptions and/or briefings.
