Thank you very much for the new updated map nounette, glad you extended the map slightly
as it now broadens the operational area to include later conflicts after 1948.


A small bug report, Nir_Am Airfield has an obstruction at one end.





Wishing you all the very best, Pete.

I'll fix it in the next release

I'm putting the finishing touches on a campaign for the Israelis side of Operation Kadesh, the other half of wasted's Suez 56.  I would of liked to of seen the actual sites in that war depicted on the Sinai map, Mitla pass does not exist, Tor does not exist, so I had to make them from scratch, it turned out OK but not really believable.  Now we can do justice to the 48 and 67 conflicts.  Golan Heights were done right?...................

Hi BeoWolf,

I've created the map based on 1948 information and for a 1948 scenario so the Sinai was not a priority (specially that the map was becoming very heavy with so many objects).

Do you know if the Mitla pass and Tor existed in 1948?

In any case if you send me a map with the exact needs (adding some roads or towns), I can create a new version of the map so you can improve your campaign.

Cheers,

Tor is called A Tor, At Tur, and I imagine it has been there for a thousand years or more.  Mitla Pass has been there since the Sinai was born, how it got it's name I'm having a hard time determining. 

Here's a good map for you

The map and roads on the original Sinai map are not completely correct, don't get me wrong I love the map, and I did not make my campaign conform to true history. So having everything just as it was, did not stop me from getting it done.  I was just hoping that more of the towns, villages, and Mitla Pass would of been on the map. 

I have not looked at your map but it will be good for a 48 campaign I have been thinking of doing. 

Thanks.

According to the hebrew wikipedia the word "Mitla" originates from the arabic word "Matala`a" which means "going up".

The Mitla and Gidi passes were very important until recently as they used to be the only two corridors for vehicles to traverse across the middle of the Sinai from the Southern edge of the Suez canal all the way to Eilat, and then on Arabia (Mitla) or to the Negev desert and onwards to Jerusalem, Bethlehem, etc (Gidi).

The other options getting around the Sinai are from the North along the mediteranean coast line or all arond the Southern tip of Sinai along the coast of the Red Sea.

does this map work with DBW??

[nounette]

Hi,
Just for information, this thread correspond to an old version of the map.
The new version thread is at http://www.sas1946.com/main/index.php/topic,16061.msg186434.html#msg186434.

And for DBW, as the map works with UP it should be working on DBW too.

Cheers,
N
