This mappack includes:
The Great Pursuit
Operation Forager
Remagen
Faid
some notes on each after playing yesterday afternoon :-)
the great pursuit is very much like tubruk, but on the russian front, but without the pesky trip around the back. axis start with 3 lines of defence. main base and lots of kit. middle line of 2 spawn points has 1 tank at each. front line has no kit apart from a few fixed art peices. the russians start with alot of kit and simply assault down a valley. once the russians are through then it can be a bit of a run around within the middle and front lines. good fun once you control the middle and front lines as russian. as german it all goes to pot once the front line is brocken.
operation forager is set in the pacific and is there is only one island. the map looks like a xmas tree, and is nealry mirroed along the vertical access with the three captureable spawn points, very top, left half way up and right half way up. each non capturable mian base (bottom left and right)starts with a tank and apc and a mtb. the top point can be help/taken/grayed with a boat. between the 2 middle points there a a winding road and 2 rows of houses bordered by the sea on one side and the mounting in the middle. the top point has a slight open cap/stream between it and the winding road/houses. this is very good fun and prob the best street fighting we have seen in bf yet. and better yet the ammo points are all in buildings so no grenade spamming.
remagen is very market garden like. allied start off with 1 non capturable main base with tanks,apcs,aa and 2 fighters. there are 3 capture points on the allied start side. 1st is the town of remagen with no kit.
2nd is the river bank with aa,apc and 2 dingy's. 3rd is the bridge tower on the allied bank with aa and tank. the germans start with 2 capturable points. 1st is the main axis base with 2 fighters,aa, tanks, apcs, 2 dingy's and repair bay. 2nd is the bridge tower on the axis bank with 2aa and tank. this plays very much like a run around map. axis have to cross to stop the ticket bleed, while allied can be spread thin, but can laucnch attack to capture axis side of map, then use there main base to clear thier side of the map. but if both end of the bridge is mined then it can be a stalmete with axis slowly losing.
faid is a north africa setting, but simular to kursk. each side has a non capturable main base with tanks/apcs and 1 fighter. in the middle of the map are 3 spawn points in a line left to right, but with the left one nearer the top and the right one nearer the bottom. the left and right bases have an aa gun. the middle base is a small town and has no kit.
a very simple map but plays quite well. quite easy to defend the left or right points. with alot of fighting in the middle. the middle point is surrounded by low hills, so a snipers dream.
best map of the bunch is "Operation Forager" imho
