Recommended Posts

Hey Guys!

 

I would like to introduce you to the project me and my girlfriend are working on right now. Since the A3 Tanks DLC ist on final, we thougt it would be cool to have some kind of training area for AAF/Nato infantry, armored and mechanized units. This is why we decided to create the Island of Hebontes. 

 

The terrain is approx 18x18 kilometers with propably 15x15 kilometers of actual land mass. It consists of 18 shooting ranges, 4 infantry ranges, 12 shooting ranges for armored troops, a hand grenade range and a range for anti-tank weapons. Between all of these ranges is the actual proving ground. Sattelite Map and Hightmap are all made from scratch and completely fictional. We are  working with XCam from Silola to place the objects. 
Additional Objects to fit the scenery are made by ourselves, like range control towers, signs, shooting range fictional houses and wrecks.

 

Map Status right now.  UPDATED 03.06.2018


SatMap: 100%
Layermask: 100%
Heightmap: 100%
Configs: 100%
Object placement: 99,5%
Additional content: 98%

Shooting Range 4 will be specifically for Urban Ops. 

 

Also there will be several abandoned villages, since the whole population (except of the villages Saint Phokas, Akhili, Kalogria and Ormos) of the island was relocated to altis, so that the island can be completely used by the AAF/NATO.

 

- Formerly Kathero

- Formerly Nifi

- Formerly Erinia 

 

Shooting Range 16 is specifically made for combined arms, the formerly village Erinia is located there. If you want to allow armored troops to make progress in some kind of offensive operation there, infantry has to clear out that village first. 

 

Screenshots of these locations will follow. 

 

Hope that it answers that question.

Finished the shooting range 4- Urban Operations just now. Sure its not OPX MOUT quality, but at least something for the infantry to train on. 

 

It containes:

-A former village as basic urban training range

-A small industrial area 

-A small formerly military camp

-A dedicaded pistol range

-A range for basic room clearing

The Southeast of Hebontes is mostly covered with deep Pine Forest:

That looks sick, I presume it's a Dutch or German based model?

That's a shame, hopefully we can do the map justice when our Leopard is done and can test it out whenever the map is ready :f:
