yeah, I've gotten it work too. But it's still 2005 technology.

Picture this: An important 'asset' needs to be picked up behind enemy lines. Your team has to fly in, land, then get back to base. The other teams nefarious spy network has learned of the mission but doesn't know where the pickup will be, they only know the route you are going to take, and so must intercept!

The route winds through steep mountains in the south of France and the way through some is less than 1/4 mile wide (10 hexs lets say).

The map is a scrolling map from side to side. Fog of war is on for each side until the enemy is spotted (then you can spot them miles away). The map may start at 15 hexes high but may narrow at points because of the mountains. and on and on and on.

But you get the idea. Current maps arent going anywhere. But there is a lot I want to do. Including 3d. for Elevation. Etc.

Whats neat is this engine design can also apply to WS&IM.
