Port of Hamburg

Firstly just wanted to say thanks to Rosbone and Sturmpanther for putting so much effort in to fixing some of these awful maps, there will be alot of 4v4 players that appreciate this.

Secondly i have a request/suggestion. Is there anyway the middle bridge/choke point on the north side of the map can be changed for a stone indestructable bridge. At present there are only 2 safe ways to bring armour on to the map from the north spawns as the wooden bridge is very risky. Its the bridge on the OP just to the right of the yellow X.

Sturmpanther is the hero. Keeping track of all these ideas and deciding what will help / break the map is a lot of work.

As far as the bridge, math-wise the bridge actually helps the North in the middle VP area by providing an additional 11 meters of attack space.


DEVILS ADVOCATE
Personally, I like trying to destroy the bridge when units cross it. Mines, Stukka, etc. having it destroyable gives the players options. If you are doing well you want the bridge so you can attack across it. If you are getting beaten, blow the bridge to relieve the pressure.

SUPPORT
Personally I rarely see the North blow the bridge. However, blowing it helps the north push the right fuel because you cannot get flanked.

Right fuel sight blocker modification made:
- Moved fuel container to camera visible position.
- Change moves the FOW(blue) area to gate area of fence.
- Opened the brick wall so units cannot get stuck in empty area.

One more just for fun:
I agree Sturmpanther two bridges "together" was dumb


This looks really interesting. I will have to make a version for steam Comp Stomps.

Here is the man bridge version. (8)Rosport of Hamburg (v2)

It is not the final version, but taken far enough to show the theory.

MAJOR CHANGES:
1) Man bridge added.
2) Stone bridge replaces wood bridge.
3) One section of destroyed house removed above stone bridge for pathing and to help North work into the south.
4) Sight blockers under the fuel sheds adjusted.
5) Fuel tank replaced by hedgerow sight blocker. Will open pathing late game and gives north another path to the man bridge.
6) Added concrete fences (green cover) in south side bridge area. Just for looks. Will help units who are pushing in.

MINOR CHANGES
7) Moved a truck from fuel to new bridge section.
8) Moved brick piles for pathing.



From the sight blocker view you can see each front line is balanced in size.

Can you move on the left VP this small house some few meters to the righ side or north side? So that vehicles can circle around this building. Atm the vehciles can't path on the left side from the building.

Do you have 3vs3 and 4vs4 splitted and reworked already?

3vs3 with fix spawn as it is atm in live version.

Final versions posted to steam as:
(6) Port of Hamburg
(8) Port of Hamburg

Final version has middle North building rotated so north and south have equal access to enter building.
