After Pearl Harbour they went to take Sydney because I had flown the 3 anzac planes to defend Hawaii. They did get Manilla and the DEI but later than usual and died big time in China. Still, their income was lower than normal because of their death in China. Becomes very important to hold India. Second game of this strat is going and I unzipped my fly a bit and lost India and I expect to retake but then lose it permanently. USA has actually liberated Sydney though. So the game is still ongoing.

Here is my redesigned map.
Thank you Baron for some history help on it and a few changes.
If I get more time possible I’ll make more changes down the road for a newer map. -
@SS-GEN Hey Ray!!! How big is your table that you have in the basement?? I mean measurements wise with the dice trays and all. I am thinking of putting one in my basement but I don’t know if the area is going to be big enough and it is hard to just guess-gauge without measuring?
Thanks- Mark

The size of my table is 11 1/2’ x 5’
I made it in 4 sections
2 4x4’ squares
2 20" x 39" -
@SS-GEN Ouch, that is big!! I don’t think I have enough room with the walls to do that and have room to walk around them. Well hmm… Thanks Ray appreciate the quick response!! How big did or are you going to make this map that you made??

Same size. 4’ x 8’.
U look at a 3x 6 maps ?
-
@SS-GEN No I was hoping a 4X8 but the room is 12X15 or so… it would be a tight fit. May have to consider the smaller map ??
-
Maybe try a 3 1/2 x 7’ ?
-
Maybe-- it will be awhile have to get the walls finished and all… But thanks for the information!!!

Hi Gamer
It’d be tight, 4 feet on the sides and 3 1/2 on the ends. Might work unless you got added tray space and stuff or if it’s total. You could always lay it out on the floor, blue masking tape or blue chalk if an unfinished slab. Give you a visual on what would work.
Just a thought :)
-
@barnee Yeah Barnee I think you are right… Well… back to the drawing board!!!
Thanks
-
3 x 6 map with trays on all sides give you what Barnee said 4’ sides 3’ 3" ends.
With dice boxes being 16" wide instead of 20". -
Thanks Ray!!
-
Well map is done. Not perfect but better than old map. Pic of 2 maps side by side.

@SS-GEN
Islands in SZ have clean blue water instead of a fuzzy haze around.
Seems a deeper blue on the new map? -
Yes. Better looking. It’s like nite and day. The pieces will stand out more. Got to see what setup looks like
-
Pacific setup
-
Looking good Ray!!!
-
@SS-GEN
Bet that was a lot of fun setting it up :)
