Title: [WIP] Lublin (6)
Post by: HerrVoss on September 12, 2011, 09:43:57 PM
This is the first map that I have made from scratch that will be released to the public. It is a little bit of everything from hilly forest to ruined cities to rail yards to industrial warehouses. The middle is compact and difficult to navigate with larger tanks due to destruction, while the outer routes are more suited for armored vehicles. The 5 VPs favor the player who gets to them first but are not impossible to capture.

A layout will follow as well as some pictures. Stay tuned!

Just one thing: change name. There wasn't any battle for Cracow at all  ;) Lublin would fit better ( big industrious centre, surounded by hills, Soviets had to pay with blood to liberate the city)  ;)

Added a few pictures that I had but they are already out dated because they are from the very beginning. Better pictures will follow.

Nice to see you started a mapping project yourself. The ground texture however, I assume it's a rubble texture, looks strange underneath those trees and groves. You should consider changing it to a more appropriate texture but I think you will because that project is just in the early stage of development.
Also, maps which contain Panther Turrets or other heavy Bunkers are often hard to balance, unless those objects are placed beyond the playable area.
Those ruins look great nevertheless.

I'm eager to see the "better" pictures :)

The textures are already changed and I am considering removing the bunkers from my EF version. A drawing I did is in the first post and here are some pictures. Enjoy! ;)
