I'm currently working on Peenemunde. I've got a perfect plan of the airfield, but nice diagrams and photos of the V1 and V2 areas would be appreciated, both drawn diagrams and aerial/oblique photos.

Thanks

Great to see you active in this space again, and thank you for all the great maps, skins and mods.

Thanks for the links everyone - very useful.

What about important industrial sites? Anyone got some really important ones that should feature?

Looking very good indeed.

Regarding your question on industrial sites - some of those near Rostock:

1) Neptun Werks AG in Rostock, known for building U-boats and other naval vessels.  Today the company is building luxurious cruise ships.

2)  Arado Flugzeugwerke in Warnemünde

http://www.bildindex.de/obj32056087.html#|home

3) Heinkel Flugzeugwerke in Rostock-Marienehe




For non-industrial landmarks besides the V-weapon sites - the gigantic Flak Towers of Berlin came to mind.  They served as aerial defense emplacement, air shelter during Allied bombings,  and as ground defense sites during the Battle for Berlin in 1945. 

I believe that Wingflyr built some nice models of these structures.
