Well hi there, I'm back...
...with something special for the Polish community and not only, a brand new shiny map proposal: Warsaw!
It's a historical map cropped from aerial pictures of the city from 1945. It's bigger than most maps in-game; 4 times bigger, in fact, as it's a 2 x 2 Km cut of the ruined city.
"Why that big if a GB map is 1.4 x 1.4 Km in size (as of now)?"-you may ask.
Well, the map has a lot of empty field and long firing lines, which require it to be bigger so things don't get to cluttered. You'll see (and hopefully agree) once you get to the "map zones" part.
Being situated in Szmulowizna, Kamionek, Targówek Fabryczny and Targówek Mieszkaniow (pretty much at the edge between the Praga Północ and Praga Południe districts of the city), it offers diverse areas intended for both short-range and long-range fighting.
Without further ado, here's the perfect cut of the map (i.e. our minimap):
Instead of drawing sloppy numbers in even sloppy-er rectangles (square attempts), I decided to take close-up aerial views of the places I want to talk more about (or simply highlight to you), given that there's not many of them. Here they are:
Now with this out of the way, I can finally move to the tactics of each class and the gameplay aspect:
And now, given that there's so many railways on this map, it's only natural to provide some filling material for them, right? Right. if you like trains, you'll surely like this spoiler. If not, what can I say... Shame on you! Here's some pictures of Polish locomotives of that period:
With this out of the way, I would generally suggest a soundtrack (if you've seen my other map proposals), but in this case, I really have no idea what to suggest for the soundtrack. There isn't anything fitting that I know of. A theme for this map would most likely be sad and reminding of the horrors that happened in the city in that period. A soundtrack for this map has to be created very sensibly and would have to be both good to listen to and remind of the history behind the city, which is hard to do.
If you've read everything, congrats. You've reached the end! I really appreciate replies (likes will also do ) and I answer all of them!
