2LW Inspired: Tiroyy Gun Battery
Inspired by the legacy 2LW Project Altrius Maps. The third Map in my "Inspired" Series:
THIS MAP IS MEANT TO BE PLAYED WITH AND IS BALANCED FOR THE 2ND LEERSOG WAR WEAPONS/SKINS PACK. REPLACING MG TURRETS WITH ANY HOWITZER MOD IS HIGHLY ADVISED FOR THE INTENDED EXPERIENCE.
"At 0920 this morning, minutes after the Syrvanian Chancellery issued a Declaration of War to the Royal Court of Hettland, military forces of the Republic launched a surprise offensive against fortified Hettic positions near Praegan. Breaking through with astounding speed and ferocity, advancing units now flood across the Hettic frontier; driving toward the town of Tiroyy, a critical transportation hub and major crossroads. However, Pro-Syrvanian civilian elements have alerted the 1st Mechanized Assault Division of the Home Army’s intention to rapidly re-arm and garrison the defunct Tiroyy Gun Batteries throughout the Praegan Uplands. Should Hettic forces succeed, the main roads into the town will be cut, allowing precious time for retreating Home Army units to reorganize, endangering the entire northern offensive. Seize the batteries, force the roads open, and push on toward victory!"
THE MAP:
Depicting only one of the batteries assaulted during this operation, the map centers on a battery of five gun emplacements buried in a rocky escarpment near the tiny village of Radzna. Close quarters fighting inside the battery is complemented by medium and long range combat during the approach. Mostly comprised of rear echelon units and disorganized, retreating infantry; Hettic forces here are too weak to retake terrain. Though unlikely to hold the approaches for long, it’s certain that they’ll provide a stiff defense of the battery and it’s entrances.
Locations:
Eagle Start: East Crossroads, West Crossroads.
Unclaimed: Radzna, Praegan Road
Raven Start: Flanking Position, Forward Observation Cupola, East Battery Entrance, West Battery Entrance, Tiroyy Main Battery.
This map should be quite challenging for defenders, and is particularly fun playing as them. Retaking locations is also much more viable with player support.
As a Syrvanian (Eagle) attack map, they’re provided several troop transports and a light tank in their assault.
(I can’t guarantee that turrets or vehicles from other specific mods will be positioned correctly, as it was tested with only the above mentioned mod. Sorry!)
