I like the new map from patch 1.05 a lot, unfortunately not all graphical representations of areas in England match the ingame data. These should be corrected.
I'm not talking about some minor pixels off, but things like Carlisle in the North that does clearly not match the area depicted on the new map, just like Oxford in the South, Bristol & Bath seems also mixed up. These are not the only once that are clearly off the mark.
I think it is important to fix these as the players will likely adjust their actions to the graphical representation of areas on the map and won't toggle urban areas anymore.

For now I only have some specific changes for the German side regarding the IJsselmeer.
- AF Steenwijk has to be removed.
Also called Steenwijk-Havelte (52.47.00 N � 06.14.10 E)
30 km N of Zwolle/N Holland, 10 km NNE of Meppel, 8 km E of Steenwijk and 2 km NNW of the village of Havelte. Was build by the Germans in 1941 on the site of a former Dutch military Artillery range, but not much was done until early 1943.
- IX Fliegerdivision HQ has to be shifted & renamed.
It was at Soesterberg what is about 11km East of the city of Utrecht. And as a division it used no roman numericals and was called 9. Flieger-Division. Later in November 1940 it was renamed to IX. Fliegerkorps.
- Fernnachtjagdgruppe
Not sure if this HQ existed at all as afaik there where just some Staffeln from recently formed Nachtjagdgeschwader 2 doing these types of mission over England.

PS A graphical fix removing the Noordoostpolder for BoB was already done by me:

Can anyone tell me if something from here was fixed in 1.06?

These did not make it in the 1.06 patch. The BoB map fix you did looks good, so I'll use your other suggestions here and try to get this in the next patch (which may be sooner than you think.)

Thanks for your help.

OK here is what I did for BoB40. I'll look at BoB41 and those other cities in England as well, they need some help.
(Fernnachtjagdgruppe HQ moved near to Rotterdam, closer to it's airbases. This HQ is needed for the AI)
