Incredible.....

Another perfect recreation.....
Using a detailed map of the United Kingdom, I was able to precisely recreate the British Isles. You'll notice most of the land is quite flat, but this increased gameplay. Note London and Dublin have been recreated as well, in addition to all the main rivers.
Mechanics:
Smooth as silk.....
Everything works very smooth. All areas of the map can be accessed. The AI is fully functional. Copy the map files into the "Levels" directory.
Gameplay:
Invade, and conquer the English.....
You'll start off in the extreme southeast in France. Your goal, should you choose to accept it, is to invade and conquer the last bastain of Allied resistance. With up to 14 AI's fighting against you, you'll have a hard time of it. My strategy consists of destroying "London Bridge", then conquering the armies of "South London", in order to establish a beachhead. Afterwards, rebuild the bridge and continue your advance. Naval assualt also work very well as much of the Isles can be hit by battleships, and there are many strategically placed landing sites. Don't forget about tunneling. As for the "Battle of Britain", careful not to be too reliant on the Luftwaffe, as they can take but not hold land. It should be mentioned for the record that this map was never intended for multiplayer, and as such the start positions would be really unfair for human players. Skirmish only is recommended.
Overall:
Famous battle that never was.....
Well, I've decided that recreating famous battles, and battles that never were, could be fun. So check it out! If you like it, then email me and tell me so. I'll see about whipping up some more of these.
Story:
Once upon a time.....
It is World War II. The Germans are planning a full scale invasion of the Birtish Isles. Think you can pull it off?
