Maj.Hans Posted Sunday at 01:25 AM Share Posted Sunday at 01:25 AM Has anyone ever created a map annotations file for Haune valley? Simply put, I am NOT familiar enough with German geography to really know what city is what, and I'd hate to be stuck simply naming them "Objective Alpha" and so on. In the past, I tried googling and porting things over from Google Maps, but occasionally ran into problems where Google says this place is "X" and that place is "Y", and then had a local once remark that "I live there but never heard it called that!"... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abraxas Posted Sunday at 07:46 AM Share Posted Sunday at 07:46 AM (edited) Hi Maj.Hans, In the maps "Wasserkuppe" and the last one "Wasserkuppe 2-24" you find "Objective Alpha" or "Point Alpha". These maps are very realistic in the possibilities of SB. You find the maps in Downloads! I'm still revising the map (see: "Map WASSERKUPPE in revision").

Maj.Hans Posted Sunday at 07:23 PM Author Share Posted Sunday at 07:23 PM Interesting. I was thinking that it would look bad for me to mark "Point Alpha" over some city on a map and discover later, "That's Hamburg!"... Or to mark a town as "Landenhausen" when a local would say "You fool, that's Angersbach!". 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless you want to set it up as some other location, I think you'll find that most of the work has been done for you. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't realize he had actually gone through and NAMED the towns so yes absolutely that one is going in my map list. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
