It's June 6th, D-day! This day also marks the 14th anniversary of the D-day mod. To celebrate I've created map sized screenshots of five new maps that will be included in D-day's next release, along with information about other maps in development.
Axis:
Click to enlarge: 19mb
A four player tournament style map set in an urban harbour shaped like a swastika. This map served as a test bed for the new sets of urban cliffs & features multi-levelled areas & tunnels. Note: The use of a swastika layout might be somewhat controversial, however the shape creates a balanced yet interesting design & is currently my favourite map to play on.
Allied:

A five player map in the shape of the Allied star & circle.
Mountain Guns: 6 player
Click to enlarge: 29mb
Mountain Guns is a remake of my favourite C&C Generals map of the same name. This map served as a test bed for the new sets of rock cliffs & features multi-layers cliff faces. Note: The road & bridge graphics will be replaced in the near future.
River Valley: 6 player

A long six player map featuring a winding river through a valley. It also features a train line weaving in and out of the mountains along the edge of the map.
Island Roulette: 8 player
Click to enlarge: 55mb
An extremely large eight player map of a circular island with separate areas for each player connected to a central mountain.
I have several other maps in various stages of Development for D-day...
No Man's Land:
A World War 1 themed map with a large network of trenches, that players can occupy & fight over.
Train Duel: (wip name)
A two player map featuring buildable armoured trains & two loops of track that run parallel to each other in the center of the map.
World War:
A large map based on the world map.
Corregidor:
A large island map based on the US base on Corregidor in the Philippines.
Paris:
A large map of the French capitol, featuring the Eiffel tower at the center.
Washington DC:
Large map of the US capitol, featuring many famous landmarks & monuments.
Soviet:
Counterpart to the Axis & Allied maps. I haven't decided on an exact layout yet, but this will be the first snow map in D-day.
Lastly I would like to point out that all of these maps are subject to change. Some of the graphics will be replaced in the near future & new terrain that is currently in development will be added. So you can expect the maps to have more details when they are included in the next release.
oh god how i wish this would be ported to openra O.O
Amazing
Damn, those maps look very good.
Axis makes me want navy even more though :P
Can't wait for the next release.

Several other fans from the Philippines requested a map of Corregidor & I was happy to oblige :)
Don't forget to include into your MOD, the Nazi GERMANY Secret weapons like:
1.FritzX is a bomb that explode in the air at great cell radius,
2.GOliath Track MIne-Also known as beetle tanks to the Allies
3.V2 Rocket-It Was the world’s first long range ballistic missile.
4. Schwerer Gustav- this is the single largest cannon ever built and used in history
5.Horton Ho 229-world’s first stealth bomber
6.V3 Cannon-It was a massive super gun built directly into a hill and capable of firing artillery shells
7.Silbervogel
8.Sun Gun- I THINK THIS IS LIKE ION CANNON
Because D-DAY is based on WWII==i think u can inlcude this weapons into your MOD.bcuz ur great modders.
Everything except for the V3 is already in D-day.
The Schwerer Gustav is just a map decoration, the Silbervogel & Sonnengewehr "Sun Cannon" where disabled for balance reasons tho.
The swastika map manages to capture something of the nazi architectural aspirations, which is pretty neat.

1.Germany
2.Italy
3.Japan
and the Allies having more than 3 countries..
The countries currently in D-day & in development are:
