Lehnardtsson -> Map improvements sugestions (8/2/2009 8:46:04 PM)

As it is not possible to modify the map, Doomtrader suggested to me to make such a thread because he would be able to modify the map for future patch.
So please all of you list improvements you wish to implement :
Most of these observations have limited effects on game but give it more accuracy. It is a major strongpoint in contrary to your competitors who have a different scale for the map and hence less realistic.
1) Lorraine, Ardennes and Alsace are mostly depicted in this games as plains exepted a few hex of hills. You know the mountains/hills called vosges have a medium height of 600 and go up to 1300m. The allies could not go through them and decided to drive south (trough Belfort and Mulhouse) or north trough Metz and Strasbourg.

2) According to your map the whole south west of France is a big forest => weird
3) Western pommerania is a bit empty (needs forest)
4) Nürnberg is not in this game whereas some smaller cities are
5) The Ruhr area needs also more cities
6) You need a city between Alger and Tunis (compared to the numerous cities in Tunisia), this city is called Constantine
7) Generaly speaking I would add more cities especialy in western Europe where supply was not particularly a problem
8) Istanbul is on the wrong side of Bosphorus! (Fintilgin) or make a city of 2 hex (Anraz)
9) a few of the coastal Norwegian cities should be ports instead of cities, so that we can at least try something like Operation Jupiter (Churchill's plan to invade Norway). (Fintilgin)
10) Sweden seem far too wooded. Even if it would look like that from a satellite view, the road net, even in the fourties, would have negated the hard supply effect now present. At least open up a plain hexes path in all coastal hexes from Stockholm to Sundsvall, with the occasional extra plain hexes here and there (Uxbridge)
11) Please create a separate icon for resources that is different from the city resource (Willgamer)
12)French ports on Map : there is Caen as a harbor, but not Cherbourg, which always was bigger. As Le Havre is near Caen, I suggest removing Caen and put Cherbourg instead. There is no Dunkerque which is a famous harbor (Pdifolco)
