Pleasant Hill, Louisiana, April 9, 1864 Map WIP Pics

Post by 2nd Texas Infantry »

Well guys I just completed my first map and sent it off to Headquarters for review and testing. I started on my next project (Pleasant Hill, Louisiana & Mansfield) April 8th & 9th, 1864. These together will make for some great scenarios. This was probably the only strategic campaign victory for the South in 1864. These pics are of only 2 days of work, but I have a good formula and rythmn down for making these now. Enjoy the pics and I will be updating them in the next week or so. Also Be on the look out for my fictional map "Big Whiskey" to be released soon!

Hey, Chamberlain , I just couldn’t pass this up, so let me get this straight, You are complimenting Crikey [ due to the fact that Crikey is complimenting 2nd_Texas ?

Well, All-Rightly Then!

I don’t think that All-Rightly is a word, but that’s another topic!

The only true logic is that, there is no true logic!

Looks really excellent.

Are those trees in the second image standard trees or a mod? Almost look like theyre out of a photo.

I am using little or no stock trees or crops etc. Its not that I dont like the stock ones (I used the ones from this game on the old game TC2M). When I get tired of laying fences on the map, I will make trees and grasses. A few are from photos, some are Jolly's trees or trees from TC2M that I altered quite a bit. For instance, there is a willow tree I made from a photo of one in my yard. I basically add new trees to all my new maps to add a unique identity to them.
