Objective Lipel 1941 - Newest H2H Approved Scenario!

RE: Objective Lipel 1941 - Newest H2H Approved Scenario!
I am actually working on s scenario design and faced the same problem mentioned by Eric. Namely, maps in historical sources I found as a part of research where very poor for terrain info. Look at the satellite picture of the area suggested relatively flat steppe as you would expect in the area near Stalingrad (working on scenario for operation Winter Storm). So nearing to the same conclusion as Eric during my work on the map I found this tutorial at Blitz about using google maps to create accurate maps (NB authored by no one else than Huib). I followed it guidance and man! My map came to life! From what I nearly assumed as a flat like pancake steppe I realized my battle area had differences of 100m between min and max elevation.

I have no idea but based on the above experience I believe Huib know his bit on maps.

For any scenario designer I strongly recommend this tutorial as very useful. I nearly left my map flat and only realized how wrong I was after I used Huib tutorial!
