I finished the Crimean Offensive and is ready for download. When I finish this I'll send the files to you guys in a packed rar folder (sgb./sga/scar/ext) everything. The only thing it needs is (A Description, a Loading Template, and an Overview working in the game wait lobby(like the map overview in the lobby)) ;D

Crimean offensive looks 10x's better now from those previous SS's.

I live in Kharkov. =)
Did you use a map of city?

It will be cool, if you create a map only of the Freedom Square on real scale. Because, for example, this little “sky-scraper” what call as the Gosprom (Derzhprom) fully survived during the Second World War.
This all are very big, but on your map it is like a village.

I seem to be having trouble at finding decent sized buildings for the square... The biggest one isn't even close to what is represented in the picture nor looks like any of them... hmmm. Time to put on my thinking cap :o

Maybe ask if the mod team can model houses? Or maybe they already have some.

Kharkov looks like a nice town! Today at least.

Yes, it is a nice and green city. =)

The Derzhprom is one of symbols of my city. A cathedral in Caen is big too. The Relic made model of it for the British campaign.
I do not know how big is Caen, but I know that Kharkov is a very big city what was a capital at once. A population of Kharkov before the war was 902 312. A map of Kharkov must be bigger, like a map of Caen.
That is why I putted this photos to here.
But I think a simple way is make other part of Kharkov.

So how's the work going so far?

I have a suggestion on the 'skyscrapers':
Try to fake them with ruins and some 'vis only' elements.

Though they wouldn't be able to be garrisoned and maybe you have to set them as 'indestructable' with some SCAR code to prevent the upper parts from 'floating in the air' if the lower parts are destroyed, since they don't behave like 'normal' houses.

You didn't use enough splats. All streets between the ruins had to be under much rubble.
