Re: New scenarios "Red Dawn Series"
 

Hi, signed up just to say thanks for the great scenarios involving one of the most interesting "what-if?"s to make to the movies! Always thought there was room in that universe to tell so many stories! There are a lot of good ones in those "Red Dawn +20" threads, for example(though lots of silly ones there too). I've been particularly impressed when I compare your maps to the actual locations on google maps. Do you use any special tricks or tools other than diligence? I started a map of part of MO awhile back but found the time and patience required was more than I had at the time, Lots of hills and stuff. I tinker with it every once in awhile but any tips would be greatly appreciated. Thanks again, can't wait for the next one!
