Putting Hill Elevations on the Map using the Landmarks Function

[Balkan Warrior]

Hi! :)
I am testing the scenario "Allied Defense of Greece" and noticed that the designer, Bear, put the elevation of hill tops on the map so that you could see them when you use the "Landmarks Function"! Since contour lines are not on the CM Maps, this is a great way to see where the high ground is located! I was going to suggest that all scenario designers think about adopting this technique to facilitate fighting on the CM Battlefield! Have a good one!

Honestly, that is a benefit but my reason for "tagging" hills was to give players reference points for team play. Thank you Balkan Warrior.

Yes, that is an excellent idea having all elevations labeled with a "hill number" or in some case they have a proper name i.e. PATTON'S GAMBIT has "Naso Ridge" and "Mount Cippola"

My only thought on Hill Tops is that it be a criteria for H2H Play Testing. The Testers have to keep the sly and nefarious designers "honest" for this map notation.

Thanks again Balkan Warrior.
