arty was not supposed to fall on spawns, nor inside buildings and under the gate. but it still does for some reason. i will try to fix that!

the overmighty tankers should be cooled down as soon as i can implement anti tank guns for the german infantry. this way the allied infantry would have to take out the german guns before their tanks can advance past the gate.

the tiger that spawns alone was only meanth to balance the gameplay untill i could add anti tank guns. the tiger really looks cool on the map, but it will disappear normally.

yes, i apologise for the lost spawnpoint that makes some germans spawn outside of the map. it will be fixed.

i will add some more wrecks on the platz, to encourage the infantry to use the open ground.

there is also another problem i noticed, the germans when they lose the gate, start spawning in at their last spawn, while they were supposed to spawn in in another spawnarea that is just around the corner from the unter die linden allee. now they have to run to far.

thank you for all the suggestions, i will take notice!

In addition to my previous suggestions I think that you should make the corner where russians and germans meet inside the gate more complex like there should be 3 ways in and around that corner and make it a 3 story building also that would help out. I think right now there are only two arches open into that building but there should be more ways around that corner or the germans just get hemmed in that one street and it is all over then.
-Dont be amazed the outside of play area was addressed several times in this post.

I hope the AT guns aren't gonna give the Germans too much of an advantage

Yeah it feel pretty easy for the Germans at the moment.

You are a champion SchutzeSepp. This map deserves to become a classic IMO. Interestingly enough I was watching a TV program on Hitler tonight when they showed a Russian flyover of the Unter den Linden (up to the Brandenburg Gate) at very low altitude, just days after Berlin fell. Most of the buildings were just shells. There were wrecks and cover almost everywhere on the Unter den Linden east of Brandenburg gate. One could only drive 30-40 metres without turning..

I wonder if you have reference video or photos. I wish I could have sent what I saw to you.

Here's an artist's impression from May 2nd, 1945.

there is a film on youtube of this flyover. but it was taken maybe a few months after the battle. because i have seen pre battle pics, with verry little noticable destruction, in battle pics with some minor destruction and streets littered with wrecks. and pics taken just after the battle wich show some buildings still even had their roof intact.

the heavy destruction of that film might come from the massive artillery barrage that rained down on the city on the morning of 2 may 1945, as promised by the russians.(one day after the brandenburger gate was taken) just before they assaulted the riechskanzlei, wich was 500m south of pariserplatz.
