Trans-Mississippi Map Pack

[2nd Texas Infantry]

Guys, I am sorry that I was unable to get out the 4 Red River Maps before I was asked to help create the next expansion. As a result it will be a Trans-Mississippi Campaign map pack to include Wilson's Creek, Pea Ridge, Prairie Grove, Mansfield, Pleasant Hill, Yellow Bayou, and Jenkins' Ferry. All the maps have been completed minus Wilson's Creek. But the other 6 are in the bag and revamped. I wanted to post some updated pics of Prairie Grove, Mansfield, and Pleasant Hill though. Enjoy and recomendations are welcome.
And it will all be free!!!!!!!!

Sorry, added some Pea Ridge pics if no one remembers the thread from a couple months ago.

Thanks Crikey, You helped me learn how to do all this (literally). If it wasnt for you and Davinci, I wouldn't be making maps. Something I will never forget.

These are just stunning maps, stunning. The winter trees look so good they could be real and the more detailed ground textures are excellent.

You know what is looking like the weak point in some of those pics?

The troop sprites.

The artwork of the map makers now has moved on so far that the next visual upgrade needs to be applied to the texture files of the troops themselves. We could use more variations in troops and crisper sprites (larger base images). How they 'sit' on the ground could be improved too (the limbered and unlimbdered gun teams are the worst culprit here).

As to these add-ons - spectacular. Thanks.

In the first pic that looks like the Second National Flag ("Stainless Banner"), but it was not approved until May of 1863 and the date of the battle is December of '62. Then again, I might be mistaken about the flag in the photo.

Stunningly beautiful artwork.

You are correct, the stainless flags are built for the Red River Campaign, 1864. You will not see them in Pea Ridge...Texas is just showing off my flags...Thanks Tex.

Don Troiani couldn't have produced more gorgeous images. Absolutely stunning!
