EAW WW1 - ground objects

Having now looked through the original twf ground object setup, I can say it was based on the original Dunkirk ground object setup. There are some differences, it has a German 1WW tank for example, and the 1WW temporary hangers.

The list is restricted to the old EAW default of 72 slots, so with 1.6 having a max of 1,000 objects, there is plenty of scope for new objects.

Ray - amongst the stull you have done for SPAW etc is there anything we can use in 1WW?

Definite priority in the new setup is to produce a British 1WW tank.

Then we need set dressing for the actual front tiles such as blasted trees, damaged trenches, damaged artillery etc

Col Gibbon made some fairly decent barbed wire, which I have set up in my Iraq scenario. There is also an Ottoman train set Gibbon made, which we can use.

The other mobile vehicles need a 1WW makeover.

I'm working through what I have in Iraq etc.

Yes there are some TMODs that would work from SPAW, but I think you're search would be more fruitful in EAW2015 since it's set in Europe.

From memory in EAW2015:

Trucks

Horse drawn wagon

Antique car.

Supply, ammo and fuel dumps would probably look OK.

Cannons, especially the one with spoked wheels.

Train stations, especially the French one, look very early 20th century.

Maybe some of the train cars, probably not the engines although Col. Gibbons had an old fashioned looking engine so maybe that would work.

Factory buildings.

Hospital.

Tents.

There's a fox hole/machine gun nest that would work.

Hangars.

Heck, it might be easier ruling out things like radar and radio towers, tanks, armored cars and ships. :D

Thanks Edlaz. Have you got a similar list for Germany?

Ray - I will continue to look through the European setups to see what can be used/adapted.

Some of the stuff done for Iraq will do nicely - the Rolls Royce and other armoured cars for example. They were still using 1WW stuff there.
