I have the map made. It is based off of realistic proportions (I used a Google Map pad image) with roads, canals and rivers plotted.

I have data for American and British deployments. However, I do not have any data on German deployments.

Would anyone be so kind as to provide documents or maps with that information. Thank you

Hi
You can join my big map mod team 1km = 1 Hex / 1 unit = 1 batallion, but please use historicakl maps - in netherland area many things changed in the last 60 years !

Here are the historical army maps for you:

I already have the map layout complete.

I used The Historical Atlas of World War II
http://www.amazon.com/Historical-Atlas- ... 0785822003

I used to Google Maps to ensure that the map was proportionally correct.

I just need German unit disposition and deployments

How big is your map - and the scale ???

BTW - The historical Atlas is very bad and inaccurately !

For troop organisation I can send you my List - for positions I can give you all answers.

Here is my old overview for the british Guards Arm Division and the 43rd Wessex Inf Div (all with DUKW!) - with PC units yet:

Here's my example for the 1st British Airborn Division:

Here's my example for the German Front troops:

Let me know - if you need all overviews for Marked Garden - I have them all !

Balck,

Thanks for the info! If you have overviews of the German deployments, that would be great!

Also - looking at the size of my map, I'm going with Regiment/BDE units per HEX

Do you have interest to join my big map project ? Than I have more interest to help you out with scaled maps, units and deployments.
I have no interests on still more undetailed maps and unhistorical troops. I hope, you understand me.

Best wishes

I think I'm going to have to sideline this project, as the scripting support doesnt exist. It is currently impossible to simulate reinforcements or a German counter-attack.

For this features we must wait for an improved version. Operation Marked Garden can not run without reinforcements or a German counter-attack.
