The Forgotten Battle for Overloon

  • Thread starter Dutch Grenadier
  • Start date
Done so far:

-map 98% (only Overloon itself needs to be done)
-German forces picked (95% historicly correct)
-British forces picked (95% historicly correct)

To do list:
-setup zones for the H2H version (this version shall be released @ the beginning of next week)
-placing of the land mines
-scripting and playtesting (thank you @mjkerner and @Endy )
-fine tuning... :D
 
Just shoot me a message when you need me :)

The screenshots look very nice so far! By the way, did not mention it before but I had a chance to see Overloon museum this Autumn when we were visiting some Dutch friends who live in Apeldoorn and Arnhem (we drove all the way from Poland). I also had a chance to see Market Garden remembrance event which was pretty cool (though honestly it could be done a bit better but I understand it's been pretty much the same for many years :) )

I'm in the final stage of the map. Destroying Overloon and creating rubble is a ton of work...

But here is the map I'm working from. I only need to figure out how to alter this to make it a strategic map.
 
I have this map in one of my books about the battle but I took it from the internet. It is a much larger map but I just cut outthe part that I needed.
 
Man placing all the rubble is hard work... I wish BF would make an update where you could copy/paste objects. But the good news is that the map is almost about done. I'm very pleased with ther esult and I hope you guys will love it.

H2H will be released soon
Brits vs AI WIP
German vs AI WIP
 
The H2H version is done and currently being playtested in a mirrored game to get all the errors out of it. Once this is done the H2H version shall be uploaded.

Both the AI versions are going to be scripted soon.
 
Looks good and I have an empty battle slot. Any takers for next weeks release?
 
I still need to update to v3.0 and then find the time :D
 
@Ithikial Were can I find the ammo dumps??? In CMRT they are listed but I can't find them for CMBN.

Ah must be the same as CMRT then. You'll see 'supply platoon' in the editor under units. Then you have to go down to the bottom and tell the trucks to be dismounted. This will convert them into one ammo dump.
