PERFORMANCE UPDATE

The Most Authentic Depiction Yet!

Thanks to the map maker FTM, and artist and historian Michael Akkerman, who provided me with several detailed maps of the German defences along Omaha, I have been able to produce what I believe to be the most authentic version of Omaha so far. You'll encounter a variety of machine guns, including the WZ.30[en.wikipedia.org], a Polish copy of the Browning M1917, a weapon lost to history as far as modern media is concerned.


I plan on making several missions based around the Normandy campaign with a focus on authenticity and historical accuracy, thank you to the Corvo team, and everyone on the WS who have made that possible for me, I appreciate it fr.


Whilst claiming the mission is the most authentic, it's down to the player to decide what they believe is the best.




The image used in the description was created by Michael Akkerman, my use of it here is not a claim to ownership, and all credit goes to him.

@rodeo regarding the lack of obstacles / cover on the beach, there's actually a bunch of angled half trenches on the beach that function as effective cover, hope this help's.

Hi, map maker here, I am not an historian nor an expert with the map editor.
I am aware the map has inaccuracies, I made it for fun in my spare time.

"Very different" I'd say is a stretch, but again, I didn't create the map so I'm unable to ammend the emplacements made by the map maker.

It's certainly better than what was there before but the German defenses are still very different from what is shown on Michaels maps

@jaybee I didn't realize there was so few obstacles on the beach at Omaha in real life. Well damn thanks for keeping it authentic then man!

@rodeo I didn't make the map so I'm unable to make any changes to it's size, I've placed spawns up down the entire length of the Vierville Dog Green / Charlie sector, and set the max US spawns to 70, it's down to the game whether to spawn everyone in or not. As for the cover, that's just how it was unfortunately, not the BEST for gameplay but it's accurate.

@rodeo There are two Osttruppen squads present, I've given their SL PPSH's, other than that you'll find it's just regular Germans and then guys from the 352nd. Thanks for playing both of you.

Masterful! The entirety of the beach is alive from the start! Other Omaha missions either don't have enough challenge or are made for the player who wants to sit in a pillbox all-day. This one is extreme fun for those who love going on the assault!:thestar:
