    Default Isandlwana - The thin red line: custom battle map needed [M2TW]

    Well, that it says. I need help making a custom battle map for a mod which recreates the Battle of Isandlwana in 1879 (British vs. Zulu)
    So it's not exactly modding but merely using the battle editor and making a map (i.e. shaping the area a little and putting some stuff on it, like tents and wagons). I'd do it on my own but my pc simply shuts down after some minutes using the battle editor.

    I have some satellite imagery, topographic and tactical maps from the spot .... but it doesn't need to be THAT accurate.

    If you're interested in the details PM me or just write here.

    thank you

    p.s. the map of the mod is the same as of the original game

    The mod is now available (see link my sig). Maybe someone will give it a shot, since. Would be most appreciated!

    I have been playing this great mod, it is historically correct and really worthy of a custom made Isandlwana map. I have no mapping experience but I would appeal to anyone with the ability to make a map to please consider this project.
