An idea for a CMFI campaign.

Gentlemen, I got an idea for a campaign for the winter months..
It's set during the Torch landings, but completely fictional. I am using a map of the Algeria-Tunisia border area.

The teams OOB will be no more than 5 - 6 Battalions per side (Anglo-American forces V's Italian/German) with some armor plus limited heavy tanks/artillery. With so few forces I'd like to give teams the strategic options of trying to out flank their opponent.
Each inf unit is a inf company.

However, the battle will be fought over hilly wooded terrain in some place, see map below. I've scaled down the map about 1:5.
I've done an example map (attached) in CMFI of the Djebel Addeda area (yellowish square) which is located along the coast.

I'm working on the unit graphics and working on a rule set. I won't have it ready for a few months yet.

Campaign Map.

Each hex is a 500m, battle maps can be 1KM x 1KM or bigger. The rivers will look like drainage ditcthes rather than streams due to the change in elevations in the CM maps, unless I've missed some trick.

That's a much more attractive map NG.
Perhaps with a lack of response earlier, you may want to scale down the number of players you want/need. For surely there are a few loonies such as myself, who have plenty of time to participate, without impacting on the FGM commitment.
 
While I am anxious to get into MG, my preferences are quite broad when it comes to CM and will participate in any of it's iterations.
 
It appears FI is the only CM game I have left so I would play.
 
If this ever happens i'd be glad to play the sacrificial Italians..
