Could you use Belgian soldiers as statics instead of ammo crates?

Soldiers as statics? Would be nice if it looked realistic, but don't forget you have to have a somewhat static soldier first, that can also move a bit (it shouldn't be a statue).

Why don't you put a village or farming communtiy in it sot there will be a place to fight for infantry like the bunker complex in kashan

If you take a look to this sattelite photo

Google Maps

You'll see that there are some outskirts of local towns and villages. And I am planning to use that, and as I'm a fan of infantery fighting myself I'm gonna make sure that the vehicles will support the Infantery not the other way around ;) . The goal of this map to me is to make sure that the players can use all possible equipment.

Since the coat of arms of Netherlands is 2 lions, why not name it. And yes! These names are a bit cheesy :) Garrison of Lions or Lions Den?

Just some thoughts that came in my mind. But I think the mapper should decide the name :)
