WWI

Post by Industrial Helix »

been thinking of thisfor a whil... a sort of napoleonic europe gameplay styl map of wwI with battles as key bonuses when cou@pled with capials europ... hold capitals to win, like in euope 1914... which hardly qualifies as a wwI map

i was considering a usa inset as welll.. but am unsure how to work in the russian revolution... what about serbia and romania and other smasll combattabts lik them? should they even have capials?i thibnk not. the idea of greece profititting fom verdun and the somme sereems ridiculous to me

so what do you guys think? or what do youwant

What about Japan? Are you going to focus on Europe only or include the wars on other continents as well? I like playing on Europe based maps but to be honest there are so frickin many European war maps already!!! Not surprising considering how many wars that continent has been through but I'd like to see a war map focusing on east Asia or Africa!

What the hell is wrong with your keyboard :-s ? It's a miracle I understood what you wrote O:) ! Are you really prepared to make that many maps on the same theme? I know qwert has made a lot of WWII maps so it's possible to stay motivated for such a long period of time but that would be quite an accomplishment! How many maps/themes where you thinking?

This would have to a large map. Besides the European continent, you have to include all of the Middle East, because of the Arabian campaigns against the Ottoman Empire. In North America, Mexico would have to be included. The Atlantic would certainly have to have battle sites that could be captured. Battles also took place in Africa.

Great idea - I think it would need a big map - a bit like Cold War which I will be back on very soon (been messing about with a clan tournament and developments for a bigger future :lol: ). - and I hope you can help me with ;)
