Welcome back, everyone! My apologies for the lapse in updates, but there's a reason for this:

Chania (4)! This beast has taken forever, but I'd be lying if I didn't say that this has rapidly become my favourite urban map.

Firstly the view from the top of the city, looking down the tiers towards the coast. Here the combat is mobile and open,  but controlling these areas allows significant pressure to be applied to the rest of the city.



Now the middle tier of the city, restricted, tight and hazardous. Flamers, mgs and mortars rule the streets here.



The western and eastern streets, climbing the tiers, flanked and dangerous.





The marketplace, at the lowest point of the city.



Chania, from the beach.



And the beach itself.



And finally, the minimap.



This map still needs plenty of testing, but it has already been a pleasure to work on, and I hope you all come to enjoy it as much as I have upon release.

Oh, and there are more maps coming soon!

And once again, I'm back! This time with our addition to the Battle of Norway: Vinjesvingen (4)!

Here, dense forests became the place of ambush and desperate standoffs between forces, turning into a bloody, difficult skirmish.















Just ignore the AI markers and blocker cubes! And with this update, it brings us ever closer to a release of the next pack! This is my last update for this one, before I start work on our next pack, so keep your eyes peeled!

See you then!

Welcome back to another update of the World Fronts map pack!

This time I'll show you the rural brother of Chania; which already has been revealed by Bacon. It is called "Maleme Airfield (4)" and is meant to display the village and airfield of Maleme which became vital for both British and German troops in the Battle of Crete in 1941.
The Luftwaffe's need for an airfield on Crete was immense, hence combat in the surrounding areas became fierce. British and Greek troops alike, dug in on Hill 107, tried to prevent the German airborne troops from taking the airfield - to no avail. Due to merciless bombardmend by Stukas, the brave defernders soon had to surrender to the waves of German heavy infantry raining down upon them.

Tante Ju has landed already, Bofors is unmanned! Now fighting continues at the ground...


Simple barracks errected by the British to garrison troops
