Official Fulqrum Publishing forum - Fresh stuff from sukhoi.ru (Discussion)

Personal opinion: Maps can't be large enough. The smaller the map the less flexible it is in its use. 1946 showed - sometimes drastically - why cutting off maps can be an awkward affair. From my POV (which is focused on history first and foremost) a map for the Battle of Moscow should be almost as large as this to incorporate all relevant areas and to allow the placement of bomber units at the right bases (without the need to have them airstart):

Yes, it's excellent image. And we would make such map about 3-4 years. It's impossible.

why not make maps like a puzzle, where all single maps could be connected to each other one day.
so that in the end, one big WWII map would be the result....

That's very understandable. However that still does not invalidate my worries about map placement and "truncated maps" which show historically rather insignificant areas while the relevant ones are being left out. In 1946 several maps suffer from this desease. :-?

As for the "small maps" issue. IMO the only useful map in CloD is the Channel map - all others (especially those "weirdos") were a waste of time and manpower. If smaller maps were asked for why weren't real-life areas chosen? For example a map confined to the Pas de Calais area with just a corner of England? Or a map of the Cotentin peninsula up to the coast of England? Just saying ...
