(6 - 8) Kursk

Description
The Battle of Kursk marked a turning point in Wehrmacht Blitzkrieg, wherein Soviet defences and preparations equalised the strengths of the two armies, leading to one of the largest shows of force during the entire war. In the open fields and ruined villages around Kursk, armoured combat was the only viable option, with a combined total of approximately 8000 tanks and 5000 aircraft. In this vast battlefield, victory will go to those who can fortify the open areas between each team, and exploit the minimal roadways on the flank. With few places to hide, attack is the only form of defence.

I love this map, but I wish it was about 15-20% larger. Everything starts to come to a standstill in the mid-late game.

@monolithicBacon, i thought a nice idea mod for kursk would be:
- the players can build only tanks, no infantry whatsoever;
-there is only one repair point, that the 2 teams must fight for ( as the players dont have infantery,
it will be the only way to repair their tanks;
-there is AI for both sides that can build only infantry that doesnt harm tanks, they will be the ones that cap points and you would have to support them. OR some of the players tank only and the others infantry only... engineers cant repair*

A fatal scar error means that whoever made the other version of Kursk has fouled up their SCAR code, and it's causing the game to encounter an error. It can be fixed, but honestly, having anything over 500 pop is asking for trouble anyway, especially if played on lower-end PC's.

As for weather, I could create other weather types, but as Relic haven't released weather settings "a la Opposing Fronts", I would have to release an entirely new version of the map.

i sorta wish it was very playable ( smooth/ no glitches/ pop decreased to like 300-400 with resource increase) and stromy weather meaning it looks real and shiny textures caused by the rain (if you have scene this before) is what friends, comments on the item itself, and I suggest

my bad its 2000 but resource production is very slow also when the map is being played/ started it freezes so you have to pres esc twice and when ai or people call in barrage it freezes game and says fatal error
