Ok, bit of an update.
Been really hard at work at this one. Spent a couple of days at the National Archives researching airfields, and then did the general layout for map_h, map_c and map_t. Made some custom textures and then reskinned dozens of buildings so they're suitable for Greece/Crete and North Africa.
Then made Autopop templates for the various types of towns/villages etc and then populated Crete.
At the moment I'm putting the detail into Crete and adding airfields. Below are screenshots of my first completed town and airfield. The town of Heraklion was surrounded by a fort wall and had an old harbour increased with a later breakwater. The airfield to the east was originally an old Greek Air Force airfield, used by the RAF until the fall of Crete in 1941 when the Luftwaffe took over it and made some modifications.
Comments are very welcome. I'm really enjoying this project and I'm looking forward to adding the next Cretan airfield.
