Primasole bridge map - Vesku - 07-03-2010

I know I've played a battle at the site but I guess it was WaW series, I'm looking for a map for SPWW2. Anyone happen to have one? I even searched for a scenario to snatch it from there but no luck. I was certain that a famous battle like that would have scenario made of it or at least a map but no. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Didn't Weasel do one of his scenarios in the Sicily Tournament about the Primasole Bridge ? I am almost certain he did. Contact Chris.

I will. Thanks mate!


RE: Primasole bridge map - Weasel - 07-06-2010

I will have to check around and see if I have it on a disc somewhere, but I am thinking I nuked it. Will let you know soonest.


RE: Primasole bridge map - Weasel - 07-10-2010

Looked everywhere, don't have it. It was a DOS SP map anyway, not sure it could be used in WIN version could it? If you want I can scan the map I took it from from my Sicily book and email it to you.


RE: Primasole bridge map - Vesku - 07-10-2010

I looked for maps and created it already, thanks for the trouble. And once I had built it the bloody game decided to throw brits on the right side which of course is just the opposite from what I figured and there is no way to flip the sides any more.

Remember the dos version had the arrows so you could switch which side you wanted that country on. I don't know some of the DOS features didn't make it windows.


RE: Primasole bridge map - Vesku - 07-10-2010

You can do it in editor but when you use custom map in generated battle that option is gone.

Vesku, I would love to see your Primosole Bridge map.

I have copies of some excellent detailed WW2 maps of the area, showing the marshes, orchards, vineyards, drop zones etc...but I have yet to make a SP map.


RE: Primasole bridge map - Cross - 07-15-2010

Vesku and I swapped some files by email, but I thought I'd share a detailed 1943 1st Airborne division map in case anyone is interested.

Here it is with a hex grid overlay in SP scale:

Click on the following if you want to see the whole thing, because I don't think it will fit on this thread:

Here's two websites with excellent info:

and

The above map was a detailed 4x3 KM map (80x60 hexes)

Here is a less detailed 8x8 KM (160x160 hexes):
