Adding new maps: Which one would be the most useful?

[Pursuivant]

I'll put in my two cents:

1) PTO - "Someplace in China" (perhaps around Kunming, or maybe Formosa), Southern Luzon Island (Manilla and points north), Northwestern New Guinea, Rabaul/Western Solomons, Western Carolines (Truk and Pohnpei islands), an interesting part of the Honshu Island of Japan (perhaps Kure & Hiroshima, or Osaka and Kyoto, or Tokyo and Yokohama).

2) MTO - Alexandria to Tobruk, Tripoli to Benghazi, Cape Bon (Tunis - Sfax - Lampedusa, Pantelleria), Southern Sicily and Malta, Naples to Rome (taking in Cassino and Anzio).

3) ETO - Calais to London, Breton Peninsula (Brest to St. Nazaire), West Central Netherlands (Rotterdam to the southern Frisian Islands), Rhine/Ruhr Valley (Koeln to Essen), East Prussia (Konigsberg/Kalingrad to Gdansk/Danzig), Ploesti/Bucharest

4) USSR/Eastern Front - City of Moscow, Rostov-on-Don to Krasnodar, Eastern Ukraine (Donesk), "South of Kursk" (Kharkov-Poltava-Cherkasy), Karelia.

Maybe a Lae, Nadzab, Cape Gloucester map would be good too. plenty of furious action around those prts.

" WIP large map of Truk, complete small net map of Makin, huge pre-alpha map of New Guinea (Dutch and Australian together with New Georgia, New Britania, New Hannover, Lae, Hollandia, etc.),"

I've fooled with modeling Lorient and Bogue-class escort carriers. I like the whole submarine, gunned-up B-24s and Ju-88s dueling, limited fighter intervention (more with escort carriers), and just plain huge targets and weapons used against them, so Bay of Biscay is my personal favorite, and probably boring to the point of pain for fighter jocks.

None, I've been busy with some home reno stuff and putting in some overtime at work.

I need to backtrack a bit and make the map a tiny bit smaller. Trim some of the north before I really get started.

Not at all! Admittedly, if you're looking for single-engined Allied fighter action, you're mostly out of luck, but otherwise there was plenty of combat in that area. Fans of twin-engined or strike fighters will find lots to love.

For the UK, there were plenty of Beaufighter and Mosquito sweeps. For the U.S. there were some early heavy bomber raids against the U-boat pens in the area which were occasionally supported by Spitfires or P-38s. And, for the Germans, there were defensive missions against those Allied intrusions - usually Bf-109, but also Bf-110 and Ju-88.
