Falcon 4.0 Korea Theater (EKT)
Background of Korea
Enhanced Korean Theater was first introduced as an idea by some of the
F4UT Management guys, however nothing got done for it in long time so
finally PMC TFW (well F4UT guys also) decided to put together a playable
new larger and enhanced Korean theater (Korea128), just for the Falcon
community to enjoy. This was in December 2002. Also it was earlier discussed
here
to edit original Korea to add the few important missing airbases in the
region. Click image for larger picture
Korea128 uses
the default Microprose tiles so it looks almost the same as the old Korean
theater. The tiling has been made with CATE autotiler software and there
is still some work to do to produce the variety for the terrain tiling.
Campaign and Tactical Engagement objectives are still to be linked so
the airwar and mostly ground war can progress, at the moment there is
no ground unit movement. Anyone willing to help please contact us.

Textures
This theater uses the default Korean textures from original Falcon,
no new tiles are made. When using the default tiles we have full set of
road, river and airbase tiles etc already ready to use.
Campaign
There are three campaigns in this release using same system as default
Korea, easy, medium and hard difficulty levels. The easy and medium difficult
campaigns just consist DPRK vs ROK/US in the Korean peninsula but the
hard campaign includes China/N/S. Korea vs US/Japan in big scale war where
just the southern tip of Korea is held by the combined forces (ROK/US).
