Default The Atlantic Wall

The Atlantic wall just where about is it ? I haven't seen it in GWX 1.0-1.03 does it exist? (I know where it suppose to be) I know Germany loses the war but to miss out the Atlantic wall? And I know it was usless because the invaision took place in Normandy,It's not a gripe as such but the brits got all the defences through the years am sure even the Germans can have some defences at least to 44.

AFAIK, there's no Atlantic Wall modeled in SHIII nor any of the mods.

That looks just like a cliff. The "Antlantikwall" he's talking about should be a line of light and heavy guns, bunkers and other fortifications that secured the coast of france and was supposed to reach to norway originally. In fact even in france some gun positions weren't ready when the invasion took place.

edit: I just read that it did reach to norway. But still it was never finished.

He said "But you need to go way north to see it". So that's the polarcap.

Imagine the frame rates with getting near an Atlantic Wall in SHIII/GWX. Besides, who would have the time and energy to make it? SH10 would be out before an Atlantic Wall Mod would be even finished.

That is indeed the polar cap picture taken by the intrepid Kaleun Sperling and the crew of U-49 (all now deceased) during our mad adventure to meet Santa Claus. We were shocked to discover it was made of stone. We were also shocked to find it so far south hence the emergency back full command

Whoa there tiger! I'm not sure burning people will achieve anything here and Columbo is a great detective. If he says the world is round then I for one will believe him

"Fortress Europe"

If I recall lessons in history the high command favored to call any defensive line a fortress.
I do belive GWX & WAC have variants to the Normandy invasion. More land units could probably be modded, but would that not invite more of the dredded camera view bug?

Galileo maybe, but it's kind of hard to burn that other guy after he fell off the edge.
