Re: [Map] Hue City (2km) [Concept/WIP]
I like the 2km map a lot.
Something I like about that map is that there is only one bridge as far as I can see and therefore it would have a big tactical value.. if you do not control that bridge as US team, your tank or logistic truck will not be able to cross the river. Right now it seems to me that the bridge would be pretty easy for the Americans to rush, but maybe you could put the US main base more towards the south? It could be a pretty nice alternative layer In my opinion if you make it easier for the NVA to reach the bridge and give the US some extra fire power to compensate for that. Though some M113's and INF could still swim cross the river, without control of the bridge, the US team would just not be able to make FOBs in the Norht-Western part of the city and therefore be unable to further attack the city. Though I have never build a map I think it could be a nice idea, what is your opinion? Dj. |

Re: [Map] Hue City (2km) [Concept/WIP]
cool but I think your still thinking a little bit on the small scale side IMO.
One much easier way to encompass and represent the entire battle pretty well, and to save a lot of your work is to simply reduce the scale of the city. If you go with a 1:2 scale, where every 1m ingame represents 2m in r/l and every 1km represents 2kms in r/l, then you only need 1/4 as many buildings to represent the same area As such, I would recommend you represent 4kms of the real City in a 2km map, which will also result in a better gameplay flow all round Next thing I would recommend is you rotate the city to be on the grid of the map, which will make it far easier to place statics, especially walls etc that you can snap together on the grid, and also make the straight canals with just terrain since then you won't have jiggered edges of manipulating the terrain grid and also have reduced terrain warping on them, as well as being able to use the terrain with statics a lot more easily As such this is what I'm thinking, note this is still a 2km by 2km map ingame, just representing a 4km by 4km area in r/l: Flags etc are very much subject to change and are only a basic representation of the main AAS layer but here is what I'm thinking. Pretty much every single flag can only be captured by Team 2 (USMC), if not every single flag and the USMC start off with only their "MACV" Compound in the South, and have to advance west from their, flag by flag until they have captured all the Southern, "New City" Flags ending with the Government Building. Once the Gov Building has been captured, boats will spawn on the river east of the MACV Compound (even thou in r/l the LCU Ramp was north, I would recommend west so their spawn is more protected from incoming fire) and they will have to make their way up to the ARVN Compound, which is a neutral flag that the NVA can't capture, and capture it, which when captured will give them a spawn point and assets spawning there, which they can then assault the Old City from directly. Then its a matter of moving onto Zone A and capturing it, then moving onto Zone B, C and D together and providing they can't be recaptured shouldn't make too much of a stale mate (could have Zone A be re-capable however while they still have all Zone B, C and D). Zone D can also be assaulted from their Boats by the SW Once they have all of Zone B, C and D, they can finally storm the Imperial Palace and crush the NVA, as per r/l It may also be worth having the main bridge (and possibly other bridges too) intact at the start of the round and making it a secondary objective for the NVA to blow them, like they did in real life, which then seriously cuts off the USMC from being able to assault the old City from the south but if the USMC manages to hold it, could give them an option they didn't have in r/l Anyways just a basic plan I quickly whipped up, here is the .psd if you wish to make any edits off of it but IMO, this would be the best plan and gives you the most options for other layers too http://realitymodfiles.com/rhino/levels/Hue.psd |

Re: [Map] Hue City (2km) [Concept/WIP]
I like that a lot its what I was going for in my image but I don't have PS and Paint is difficult. Though I think I will clean up the New City zone to just have a singular battle zone. As for the bit about ARVN compound is that really possible?

And ye, the bit about the ARVN compound should be possible, also forgot to mention that you would want a dome of death around it to simulate the South Vietnamese forces holding out there so the NVA can't just sit inside it waiting for the Boats to turn up But still want them to be able to get up close and around it to make it somewhat hard to secure | |

Off topic but, how do you get the image shack stuff to display? Looking back for refreshers and image shack is being annoying. | |

Re: [Map] Hue City (2km) [Concept/WIP]
So how is this going? What if all the flags are already in control of NVA at the start and BluFor must capture and push rather than having all the flags neutral at first?
