Notes:

This is going to massive battle, with one Allied Member on the ground, preferably with armour, and two Axis members, definately with armour. Obviously, I will be flying Allied air support. Places are not on a first come, first serve basis, and I will only allow members to join if I am satisfied that they are active, experienced and strong enough to take part in this battle.

Quick explanation of the map. Orange lines are windows, blue are doors. In buildings with multiple floors (see: this), floor plans are exactly the same on higher floors, only doors are replaced with windows.

For an idea of scale, the square buildings in the top-right are 5x5 meters, and therefore, the largest of the box paint-dabs in MSPaint are 1x1m (approx).

The battle does not have to start instantly, and I am quite happy to wait a while so we have two strong teams. Erik/JT I know this is something that both of you would be interested in, and seeing as you both have tanks, I would be most interested for you two to take part.

[∬: Erik Schneider]

Yes, I would be interested to take part of this in the future. As of now, I don't think either me or JT have an AA weaponry on the axis side of war. I'd definitely be interested in McMerhoffing this, or bringing Schneider if I must.

But anyway, yeah if you want some big stuff in the future reserve me a spot, but I'll have to be taking a big ally with me.

[Edward"Butcher"McMillan]

Well I'm currently in a battle, but Erik if you classify me as a "Big Ally" then I'll McMerhoff this one with ya When my other battle has concluded of course.

[Nathan Whyte]

I've taken a few words of advice from Raf, and I've enlarged the map

LINKY

I've also added staircases. A few more things to note:
- The church tower, although it's 4 storeys tall, because it's round, you only have the ground and top floor. The rest of it is just emptiness. And if you fall down it, that's definately your day ruined.

- The walls around the park and the garden of the large house have stone walls about waist high.

- The external walls of buildings are quite thick stone walls, whilst internal walls are thinner wooden walls. You couldn't smash through them, but a good blast from a shotgun may make a new hole...

- The lime-green bits are basically large fields that have been neglected. So, it's overgrown grass, flowers, but other things like nettles and prickles. If you were to fall and land on one, it would hurt, possibly enough to impair your use in combat.

Erik and JT. You two are most definately accepted as the Axis combatants.

Sorry, Joey. You just don't have the resources/rank to hold this down on the ground.

[PFC. Joey Toniatti]

allright i understand nathan oops i mean uncle nathan haha

[Edward"Butcher"McMillan]

My other battle has finally concluded and I am still interested in this battle.

Erik you still up for this one? Nathan?

Also Nathan, the link you provided to the "enlarged" map...is exactly the same...did the scale change or something?

-JT

[Nathan Whyte]

Yeah, I changed the map in the picture, basically I added more land to the East/South.

Aha, gotcha.

[MAJ Patterson]

Pulling out with McMillan and joining up with Patterson...once the battle he is currently in has concluded of course.

-JT

[Rolf Jäger]

This has been discussed outside this thread already, but I'd just like to confirm that I'm interested in taking part in this battle as air support for the Axis... once I get out of my current battle, of course.
