Bond_Villian Posted August 1, 2018 Share Posted August 1, 2018 Wondering if anyone knows of a map/terrain file of the Hurtgenwald area for SB? https://www.google.com.au/maps/place/52393+Hürtgenwald,+Germany/@50.7136972,6.4184143,12.25z/data=!4m5!3m4!1s0x47bf650088d01c1d:0x42760fc4a2a78d0!8m2!3d50.7108822!4d6.3785269 Or if anyone would care to create one?

Members Ssnake Posted August 1, 2018 Members Share Posted August 1, 2018 I wonder how useful such a map would be. A true appreciation of the terrain would come only from a high resolution map; in a few years, I'm pretty confident, they will be available. But what made the Hürtgenwald the terrible slaughterhause was its extremely forbidding terrain which I imagine would not be very entertaining to play in, not even if life is not on the line. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes it probably would be difficult to make a good scenario with the current abilities/limits of SB maps. I have an Infantry-centric battle in mind (obviously), but the infantry features could probably do with some development before that would be 'fun' too. Ill do some experimenting with existing terrain, but if there is a Hurtgen terrain file out there (or if someone will make one), I'd like to try it Cheers Edited August 1, 2018 by Bond_Villian 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just thought if he read the thread it would give him what he wanted , as opposed to my writing a longish summary. I'll remove the post. No offence meant. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
