Smolensk - Operation Barbarossa

Battle of Smolensk - Operation Barbarossa, 1941

*** UPDATE (10.12.2024)
Recently had a baby so I've been MIA for awhile due to that. Still planning on releasing something, albeit a bit pulled back in terms of scope. I'm also thinking of releasing the reworked map separately so y'all can have some fun with it. Took me a couple hundred hours so far so I think you all could make some pretty fun scenarios with it. I'll shoot another update in the coming weeks on that regard.


*** UPDATE (09.1.2022)
This mod is undergoing a complete map / mission rework.

The current map and mission are still functioning, although performance may vary.

----------------------------------------------------------
*** Information on the Upcoming Update ***
----------------------------------------------------------

When the rework is complete, you'll notice a very different and more historical representation of the city of Smolensk in 1941. The railway has been massively expanded, Cathedral Hill has been added, the city walls are placed more accurately, custom bridges have been created, destroyed sections / city blocks have been added, the river has been expanded, etc..

The new map & mission is much larger, so to offset this I have broken up the map and it's objectives into smaller more story driven chunks, with a few big objectives thrown into the mix such as one involving a massive counter attack.

To give you a preview of the new map, I've included some WIP images of the rework.

*My schedule can be a bit chaotic at times so because of that I'm not giving any time estimates when this will be completed. I will say though that most of the remaining work is only just scripting + testing and a couple of detail passes.

**I plan to script a Russian mission, but only after the German mission is completed. Also, once I push the new map to this mod I'll re-upload the old map in a separate mod and I'll consider including the old Russian defense mission (time permitting).

Please stay tuned!

- Major credit to the incredible assets used from the other 2 mods (Contact_mod_GOH and the mow2_mod) that have made making the city of Smolensk possible, as well as the vanilla assets!

- Special thanks to WarfareGaming for making that epic cinematic.
(the cinematic is of the very first version of the map and most of what you see in that video has been redone, but still very awesome he was able to put that together. Thank you Warfare!)

Finally, thank you all for subscribing and giving this mod a try. I'm also excited to get the updated version out to you all soon (hopefully by end of July) so please check back soon!
