[Map] Camp Holland [Concept]

Post by LiamNL »

With the introduction of the Dutch forces I would like to suggest an insurgency layout map for the Dutch. For this I would recommend the military base Camp Holland in the province of Uruzgan, Afghanistan. The only problem I have been getting for the moment is that there are few pictures/maps that give a basic layout of the base.

The solid features is that the base is next to a large dirt airstrip in the vicinity of Tarin Kowt.

(Yes I know that the Dutch are currently moving out of Afghanistan but this is one of the few possibilities to make an insurgency map for them)

Is this just a suggestion or do you plan on making this map and want some feedback on the concept?

If you plan on making this map and want feedback on the concept, a basic minimap plan is required. Check this topic: https://www.realitymod.com/forum/f354-c ... w-map.html

I was planning on learning how to make maps and then making a concept of the map. And later on work on the actual map. Untill then it is just a concept.

Also I found a downscaled concept sketch made by one of the PR NL devs (glimmerman) of the actual base (as a 1:1 scale would apparantly take up the entire map)

Ofcourse there is already a map in the works in the same region. I should really search the forum on more than one term before I post....

You are still at full liberty to make a Kamp Holland map, but the Kamp Holland was just the base, you would need to make Tarin Kowt as a Fallujah West type of urban map as well and/or include parts of the Balluchi valley.

We have the Uruzgan map in development for some time now being worked although not lately.

So if you want to make it be our guest, we have some nice statics from that area like the gate sign and the actual Tarin Kowt roundabout guard house and such.

I will be sure to set aside some time to derp about in the bf2 editor, and I'll see how I'll do it. Ofcourse the base wouldn't be camp Holland without the sign and you mentioned you already have it. Is there any way you could share it with me after the initial map design is done?

Sure no problem, PM me when you made some progress.

We also have the actual Tarin kowt ATC tower for the Kamp Holland dirt strip and a road sign pointing to various Dutch city's.

Amazing models, I will be sure to make contact. And good luck with your map and the entire Dutch forces add on

Also update on the operational area I have planned (Still kind of wondering if I actually took the right location...)
Overall location

Operational area and Dutch base indicated

I will try to scale everything down dramaticly to make it fit in PR maps.
As you see there is a Big town near the airbase (Tarin Kowt ofcourse) surrounded by a lot of farmland (there even is a river :3)

Thanks for the confirmation I was really having my doubts, I already found that image of Camp Holland. It's the best source material for the basic layout...

I was thinking of adding an Apache for close air support on the map (when coming to vehicles) as those are known to refuel at the airstrip, but that would have to be balanced out by increasing the taliban AA capabilities.
