#New Maps suggestions for Eastern Front

As the eastern front was the largest front in terms of manpower, tanks, area and time, I feel that it is still not well covered in Hell Let Loose and it should have more maps.
Right now we have 11 Western Front maps and only 3 Eastern front maps.
Here are some suggestions:

  • Battle of Moscow 1941 (Open field with trenches and forests) -> needs totally new vehicles
  • Battle of Smolensk 1943 (Open fields mixed with Urban areas)
  • Battle of Lenino 1943 (Open fields with river crossing and town)
  • Battle of Kiev 1943 (Urban map)
  • Battle of Narva 1944 (Open fields mixed with Forests and Hills, as well as swamps and waterways)
  • Siege of Breslau 1945 (Urban map)
  • Battle of the Seelow Heights 1945 (River crossing points mixed with urban areas and forest)
  • Battle of Berlin 1945 (Urban map)

I focused more on battles after 1942 since we already have vehicles from that time in the game.
Feel free to add other suggestions

Berlin is an excellent suggestion.

I would also love to see prokorhrovka as a tank map, imagine 30 tanks going against eachother would add a new dynamic for sure.

actually I'd prefer more earlier maps... reading this I realized how much the general-map characteristics would be similar to things we already have (be it Kursk, Charkiv or PHL, Foy or Carentan). Fleshing out more uniqueness by differing equipment would make the maps feel more unique.
But Id still also advocate for Berlin and Seelow as must-haves, though my perfect Berlin map wouldnt be that urban, as you can lay a perfect HLL map over the Reichstag surroundings - making it a open map dominated by the Reichstag and Kroll Opera as complex buldings looking over a devastated and entrenched field down to the Tiergarten 😉

In the early war we could still have a battle of Kiev, Smolensk/Bjalstok or Sewastopol all with more open and urban potential.
If they are still going to add the polish Id also add a Warsaw Uprising map

I've made a post about Battle of Berlin already, it was one of the most important battles during WW2. Urban warfare with new weapons and vehicles would bring a spark to this game
