Atually, there are 2 separate railroads. There was a railroad running into the swamp just west of the border, almost to lake Khanka. It isn't on the military map, but is in the maps in posts 127 and in the wikipedia map. The railroad you mention is also a consideration. As you say, it was extended during the war, and it seems it was a pretty well established transport corridor. You're right that there are 2 separate railways. The most advanced one is the one near Lake Khanka as you said, so I'll move the bit already drawn. The other one is non existent in 1935. I'll what it becomes on the 1940 Atlas I should receive soon. quote:
-Korea looses a hex to Manchuria -railroad rerouted in NW Korea Why ? Korea seem good to me as it is. I prefer to make minimal changes. quote:
-link from Korea border and nortwards. The parts I believe were constructed during the war (based on the maps above) are in grey, not black. Maybe they could be roads??! My opinion is no to roads. Either railways or nothing. Roads are exceptionally rarely used in WiF. As for this link, it is absent from WiF FE maps, so I prefer leaving it out. quote:
-Link near the boarder to lake Kanka (there are coalfields there) -link we forgot south of Changchun It seems to be a late war bit. I prefer to leave it out too. Manchuria begins to get too much railways ! quote:
-the railroad in the west near Nomonohan is way to short? (again, road near the end?). I'll see how long it seems in 1940. quote:
-In the bottom west corner, I've dotted some rail in red. I can't see this rail in any of the maps posted in this thread! I know you have it in your war atlas, but all the other maps indicate it's not there? It's a fairly critical raillink, as without it, a single PART/invading unit can cut Manchria and China apart This one is present on my 1944 map, and not on my 1935 map. But as it is present on the WiF FE map, I suppose it should stay on the MWiF maps. quote:
-I've drawn in where I believe the Komsomolsk rail would start I'll see on the 1940 maps whether it appears or not, but I'd prefer to leave it out. Finaly, the only thing I would agree, would be to shift the small rail bit 1 hex to the east, as you initially asked. Anyway, except all those rail bickering, do people agree for the changes with Lake Khanka being shifted to the east, as shown on post 130 and 141 ? The railways can be changed easily, but the lake won't be changeable again after. I wonder if it would be slightly better to have the lake cover the hexside between both cian arrows, rather than the one it currently covers. It would seems to be less on the north-south russian border, and more on the east-west border.
