I've never really tested the shot blocking qualities of the normal blockers, but I know that the one called _shot_blocker does just that...blocks shots. I usually put it as a spline inside tree groves to stop people shooting through.

@Peeedaaah I'll have to try these ones! Do they also block shots or only movement cause i always got confused with the names?

Take a look at this screenshot.

How you position the blockers based on the 'grid system' in worldbuilder also changes how much area they block. For example, The small upright blocker can be positioned to only block on square.

@Peeedaaah i only used the movement/shot blockers that come in tis huge size... ^^ do you mean the normal ones? i have to be honest in the fact that most of my experience comes from trial and error since i couldn't find many good tutorials :/

How small a shot blocker do you need?
You can get as small as 4 blocks, the size of a jeep effectively...

Just the last note. I've noticed that in Eastern front, Modern Combat and Classic CoH, bunkers and MG emplacements that defend HQ sector are placed toward HQ instead of facing Enemy side. That's all. Thank you.

Thank you very much.

Hi King Azog,

i have noticed the issue with the central strongpoint too. Its too bad there are no smaller shotblockers that I could place where they realistically belong but i will definitely find a workaround if I do a 2.0 version of the map! The chokepoint for vehicles in the middle of the map will be difficult to change if i wanna keep the basic layout but you are not the first to suggest a cleanup of the middle so i will see how i can make it more accessible. I could just make a "empty trainyard" version of the map that would give alot of space for maneuvering!

Hi TheRohBird1. Thank you for you map. Very nice and full of details. I've just played it with Blitzkrieg mod playing Germans. The only issue I've seen is that from the central strongpoint (where flaks are placed) units can't fire or see the enemy. Then I've seen that enemy tanks (A.I.) tend to get stuck in the right side (fuel side) where there's train entrance. The only improvement that I can suggest is that of clean the central part of the map allowing tanks to move better. Thank you.
