Looks good so far. I hope you can keep it up, because it seems you have a long way ahead of you before this will be a good PR map. (It seems quite empty)
On a sidenote: A church in Afghanistan? Have you found any evidence of there actually being a single church? I know they were not alowed under the taliban regime, and 98 % of the afghans are muslims. Anyways, it just seems very unrealistic (imo) that a small mountain village would have a church.

Instead of trees like korgenal, maybe lot more caves? i think it would fit right in to the map look and add lots of different firing postions, keeping the NZ guys on there toes. But i don't know how much more work that would take.
Use my idea if you like. :smile:

I like it, only one thing I dislike, everyone always forget too make a outer ring's on Fob's and bases.
Almost every base I have been had a huge outer ring preventing enemy's to get close or mortars/rpg's to get shot at.. Maybe make it on a smaller scale at main bases. at least far enough to prevent enemy's to trow Molotov's in.

Caves and tunnels would be great! Exciting to play as BLUFOR and finding a cave/tunnel which need to ble cleared out and you dont know where it leads and what you'll find! :D

or playing as insurgent, hiding in there with grenade traps and stuff.. :mrgreen:

Trees look realistic to me outside of the green zone.
Lots of trees = hell for blufor
No cover = hell for insurgents

Only problem I can see is a few well placed SAW's totally locking down the map.

The view distances are HUGE and there is hardly any natural cover. Taliban won't stand much of a chance by the looks of things.

I plan on adding a lot more rocks for cover, plus i may lower the view distance and simulate a day with poor weather conditions. We'll see ;)

I've recently made some texture changes to the color and detail maps to reflect what Bamyan is like in mid-winter. Should be a cool new twist to the afghan theatre :D

When will the Marines get an Afghan map? We're more involved in Afghanistan than the army. We just completely handed over and pulled out of Iraq to boost our numbers to clean up the mess the army made there.

Anyways, looks great. Can't wait to be put to shame on another map.

There is another Iraqi-USMC map being made, the Tigris River one I think. I agree though, would be good to see the USMC represented properly in Afghanistan.

smells like someone is looking for some Op Moshtarak?

Take Helman V2 and rename is Op Moshtarak haha, and throw the marines in there in place of the brits... too easy

Marines could be the placeholder faction on this map, however, US Army special forces and regular troops are stationed at Kiwi Base in Bamyan, thus making it a little more realistic for them to be the placeholder faction :)
