Erik, you are challenged to improve your Battle of the Bulge map!

You would be well advised to take advantage of this lidar survey of the battlefield. I doubt that you have included these "nearly 1,000 previously unknown features of the landscape, such as foxholes and bomb craters" in your scenario map. When can we look forward to an upgrade? ( :wink: )

If we had some crater decorations these would of course already be in place :wink:
Now if fixed craters were crated on-map after heavy artillery bombardment, say 100mm and up...

Well, there is only one man on earth who can ask for stuff here . . . and actually get it once in a while . . . and that is you! :)

Battle damage is sorely lacking from the editor.

We only got a few feeble flames and some shady smoke.

I yearn for the return of adherbal but our entreaties he would spurn and our hopes he would burn, the ashes to be placed in an urn next to a fern. Gosh durn it.
