Story - Mission:

Mission Background
The location is Corfu Island in a small coastal town during the German occupation of Greece. The occupying forces have turned the town into a coastal fortress, turning out and forcing the locals into hiding in the hills of Corfu.

The Mission Story
Hiding in the Corfu hills you see your people suffer and long to have their homes back again. With most able bodied Greek men either imprisoned or in resistance actions elsewhere freedom of the town looks a long way off. But the sudden promise of Allied air support for the local resistance in knocking out the beach artillery, which is becoming a problem for the passing transports, gives you an idea that is surely a suicide mission.

On a clear night you set off alone to free your town from it's dark oppression, or die trying.

Review by: Stef Méganck

The author did a lot effort in making this map adding detail and other stuff to make one of the most enjoyable map from the time is was published.

Design is well put together perhaps a little too flat and a little bit to repetitive regarding house layout but attention to the variety of building, the way you can travel through and the well optimized sea effect, occuring event like the plane bombing, certainly make those small default negligable. Everything was well put together with some cutom content the ravel, mostly at start the sneaking, will permit you to travel through most of the room with good texturing and not too much repetitive. Even if the size of the map is quite big and detail with a huge amount of eneies it never suffer from slow down of bugs.

Gameplay is certainly not disapointing, a quite impressive amount of objectives will give to this mission an enjoyable playtime, adding at start a quite challenging experience through sadly perfrectly put enemies, hopefully the experience will turn to a more average still challenging experience after the first objective is accomplished. The variety of objective and enemies you need to fight will make you discover on each step forward something new witch will leave at last a enjoyable filling of finishing this unique mission

In conclusion: An impressive mission with some high challenging experience that shouldn't make you giving this one up, just fight to the end and you will finish the expeirence with pleasure.

Corfu Liberty

This map pits you playing as a resistance member on the island of Corfu in 1943.Tired of seeing the German occupiers fortify your home town on the coast, you set off to cause some trouble among them. This includes taking out flak guns, an 88 and calling in a P47 plane to bomb another 88 on the beach using a radio.

Presentation / Technical

The town is very small, but machine gun posts with seemingly endless supplies of gunners will keep you at bay while you complete your objectives, so unlike the normal style of SP map which is very linear, the town feels like a seaside cluster of houses. The building styles are in keeping with the location, and I could see no serious flaws in the brushwork etc. The waves lapping at the harbourside are a nice effect, rather than the normal up and down motion seen in most maps. The only letdown graphically I found was the small beach area, which seemed over-fortified and for some reason had a destroyed tank and higgins boat on. This area seems rushed which is a shame as the tranquil look of the rest of the map is very nice, and gives a feeling of nervousness as you don't quite know where the next enemy is coming from.

Playability / Game Flaws

The first flaw I found when I started playing was the first enemies you meet seem to wear bulletproof armour and are almost impossible to kill. This gets very frustrating as you start off with just a colt .45 and every enemy seems to use up a whole clip of ammunition. Once you get past this first part, however, things get easier.

There are quite a few good set-pieces in this level, including two workers welding and hammering an 88 into place overlooking the beach, and my favourite, you being trapped in a building just as a tank rounds the corner!

The use of MG42 gunners keeps the level longer and more interesting as you have to figure out how to get around them, there being infinite enemy spawners to man the guns. The long list of objectives keeps up a good flow, and gives a good deal of satisfaction when you complete each one. An annoying feature was enemies spawning in houses you have already cleared, which makes it very hard if you are low on health. Some cool scripting is seen, such as soldiers vaulting over a wall, and the P47 bombing the 88.

Conclusion

Overall this level was very enjoyable to play, not breaking any 'rules' of history, using the correct vehicles and enemies (apart from the premature use of the STG44). After getting past the gauntlet of soldiers, you will feel a great deal of satisfaction for the part you have played in ousting the German occupiers out of Corfu. I really hope the maker carries on mapping for MOHAA, maybe carrying on the same theme, and there is some real talent and knowledge here.
