I am playing Landing on Langoan from LnLT compendium vol 1. It's a rare opportunity to have a tactical match between Japanese and Dutch troops.
I have an issue though with the maps. The scenario uses Map 23, which is from Heroes Against the Red Star. It has several large wheat fields that block LOS. The odds of there being wheat fields in the Dutch East Indies is, I'm guessing, pretty slim. I'm treating them as kunai grass.
I don't know how common an issue this is with compendium scenarios that use maps from other modules, but they probably need SSRs to deal with it, or a general rule that says you use the closest terrain in the theater where the battle occurs.
