when it says combined arms, it means everything, ie, both choppers and jets in the same layer

updated post #1 with the following info and high rez screenshots:

Briefing:

With constant skirmishing across the Chinese front lines, British forces decide to strike a deadly blow into the Qinling mountain region. Both sides have established air bases in the foothills of the mountains, and are preparing to launch a large scale combined arms offensive through this once tranquil region.

A Small USMC mechanized unit has been attached along side the British Forces as part of a joint coalition operation. The area has a large coal deposit, crucial to the Chinese war effort in this region. The stakes are high in this large scale operation, and neither side can afford to lose.

This is going to be one epic map.

You might find me flying airport to airport every few rounds, where is my commercial jet?

Are the sand bunkers destroyable?

Is it as big as Kashan or way smaller?

well the nice thing about woods is AAVs love to hide in them. You can hide a AAV in the trees soo easily and just lock onto and shoot anything that flys over, and they are never going to see you if you place yourself correctly

indeed!

but i think it would be nice if replaced the apache with another merlin instead of a apache coz i dont think a apache fits on this map, but thats just me

Edit: or maybe 2 merlins and 1 apache
Map should be abit concentrated on transport

the apache will love this map! with all the valleys, trees etc it can easily pop up from behind a hill, fire, and go back down behind the tree line like its meant to in r/l

2 merlins is really out of the question, main thing you need to remember is that there is unforintly only 32 players max on each team, so the weapons i have kitted out for each side reflect that player count, putting anouther merlin on would mean that you would use up 1 more player flying around, and as there are 2 merlins no one is going to be transporting any one as 1 merlin is more than enough for transport when already have the guys are in tanks, in APCs etc

it dose say "Final" in the title

would have to take some really big bug to stop it being released now

and ye, the map has over 30,000 trees in it, was over 40,000 at one point

arjan · Post by **arjan** » 2007-12-20 20:16

still would like to see apache being replaced with merlins
