So recently , i decided to make a new version of AA based in 1940. I need someone to finalize a map for this. I do not have the tech know how or the software required to make this a reality. This map will be released to the masses and you will be credited as the map desginer.

I haven’t used that map, but I’d recommend scaling your pieces up by about 10-20% to keep things proportional. Test fit as you go to make sure it works.

@conquisitore
That is the right kind of price!
I might try harder to find someone who can do that for me here

I just wanted to say that I printed out a very large map size at 2440mm x 1118mm ( roughly 8 foot x 4 foot) on a digital printed transparency with a matt laminate and it has turned out fantastic. The quality was amazing. I searched everywhere to see if it could upscale and could not find the answers. Hopefully this will help someone who is thinking of doing the same.
I have built a custom table with magnets sunken into the table to hold the map in place. I wanted to use the table to play other games so the map had to roll up.
I also wanted to use the table for Global War 1936 and the magnets work well

I know this is quite old, but I would love an SVG file of the map at a decently high quality (high enough to distinguish roundels and text). If needed, you can email it to me.

Thanks for the feedback guys, I hope by this weekend ill have some pics of the progress. Ill set up a few different border styles, all of which will be towards natural. I actually like the sea zones, so ill just keep that look… since ive also already recreated that look/layer anyway haha.

I was able to get the names font, but the number font is a licensed font, so I bought that. I have the water layer and the sea zone layer in. Ive decided to redo the entire map from scratch though, retaining the gameplay, same zones etc. My French units are in the decal phase, so after I post them, ill start my map thread. Again, if its edits you like, let me know.

one additional comment:

I recommend to follow the map1942.2-thread in the AA1942 section, the latest version of the map is linked there.

Regarding prices, here are some quotes that I got from two different Southern California print shops (I had posted this also on the thread entitled Ambilzi & Grasshopper’s 1940 Global Map)

The first print shop provided the following estimates (note the $52 set up fee):

SET UP: $52.05 ( digital color file set up, latex printer set up)

48" x 105" vinyl $142.63 print digital color 4/0 on white smooth vinyl (15oz)

48" x 105" canvas $300.13 print digital color 4/0 on canvas

48" x 105" versa fabric $273.88 print digital color 4/0 on versa fabric

53" x 116" vinyl $174.63 print digital color 4/0 on white smooth vinyl (15oz)

53" x 116" canvas $368.13 print digital color 4/0 on canvas

53" x 116" versa fabric $335.88 please note: print cannot be any larger, printing on a 54" rolld

A second set of quotes from a different Southern California printing company for printing on vinyl (the type of material used for advertising banners):

48"x105" , white 64" Roland EcoSol Banner, solvent 6 color Roland 4sf $230.80

53"x116", white 64" Roland EcoSol Banner, solvent 6 color Roland 4sf $258.78

56"x122.5", white 64" Roland EcoSol Banner, solvent 6 color Roland 4sf $277.42

(I might check on the AliBaba website to see what I can find for printing services in China. Also, I’m checking on the possibility of printing on upholstery vinyl and marine vinyl).
