A suggestion for basrah.

Ok, basrah is by far my favourite map, but the whole right hand side is unused so here is my idea.

At the top right a small base could be placed, with a spawn location like the VCP (So once destroyed you have to foot it out there.)
It would contain: One jeep, 2 Ribs. This would enable river patrols/operations.
Also there would be a Lock up building, inside would be 3 rpgs, 2 pkms and an SVD. There would be a door that had to be blown that can only be destroyed by the insurgent side. I think this would provide an awesome new area to fight and new tactics.

I don't really think we need to encourage more insurgents to go after more brithish assets/flags. From the way I understand it the insurgents are not ment to be a big offensive force more of a hit and run, ambush, and defencsive force.

It would be fine to impliment what your suggesting, minus the weapon storage and cappable flag, to give the brits a river presence.

I would hope for a few BRAND new insurgency maps, with Pollish forces, Canadian and US

New maps? I like how that sounds.

What changes does the current map need?

Exactly my point.

I think Basrah plays pretty well right now but could benefit from a larger city. Now I don't know if a larger city would work on the current map size or not. More to the point does Basrah need to sit on a Kashan size map with a larger City and more developed villages or should it simply have it's current city increased?

Personally I don't want to see the map size get to much larger as this is more of an infantry style map. Im not sure what the current sizes are buy I think Basrah is 2km x 2km and Kashan is 4km x 4km?? If so perhaps an increase to 2.5km x 2.5km would give enough room for the brits to get access the outskirts of an enlarged city safely?

Right, I'm off to NASA to steal the super-computer I would need to run this map...

but the question is, will the PR devs really add more stuff to al basrah before the release of 0.7?

They will optimise the maps more, i.e, remove objects that you can't see but use up resources.

so will the devs make the city in al basrah more larger in future releases of PR?
