Hello and welcome back to another update of Forgotten Hope. Today we are showing off a brand new map for our Normandy theater, which was made by the newest addition to our developer team, Schism - RvtL.
Today we are bringing you screenshots of the map, Port en Bessin. Originally created by ctz and eventually handed over to Schism - RvtL, British commando forces must drive out the defending German troops to link-up with the Americans landing on Omaha Beach. Final touches to Port en Bessin were done by Natty Wallo.
The British 47 Royal Marine Commando landed on Gold Beach on D-Day. After advancing nine miles trough enemy territory they began their assault on the small harbor of Port-en-Bessin on June 7th.
Flanked by sheer cliffs and fortifications, laying between the Gold and Omaha beaches, Port-en-Bessin would not only serve as the link up point between the American and British sectors, but would also become the main port for allied fuel deliveries to Normandy until Cherbourg had been liberated. Opposing the Commandos was the German 352nd infantry division, the same unit that had wrecked havoc on the American troops at Omaha Beach a day before...
That's all for this week, but be sure to come back next time for another update. Until then, feel free to visit our IRC channel and our public forums to discuss this update and other news.

Does this map look close to what Bessin looks like? Obviously accounting for the 60 years of building and changes.
It looks pretty similar from the few pictures I've seen of the town, but experience is everything.
Great work!
Looks great.. nice work...
