Has anyone played this in a while? I think its really balanced and could be a good “in between” for AA50 and AA40 players. It came out right before AAP40 ( AAE40 came out another year+ latter).

as well as technology and victory city chart 8-) :wink:
and a new 2-part battle board (dogfight and normal)
-
Would be good practice to date your filenames.
I just downloaded phase 2 map.
I haven’t checked with Illustrator yet but in acrobat reader the phase 2 map still looks like Western Canada has the wrong colour. -
as well as technology and victory city chart cool wink
and a new 2-part battle board (dogfight and normal)
===Its a combo Tech chart and diplomacy chart so each team can track how the neutrals are being swayed.
2 part battle board? What is this supposed to look like?
I fixed that western canada thing. Ill reload a new file to replace it… arrg….
-
Im making a version that has the units “ghost” into the map so its easy to setup… something like the AH Bulge game
-
that would be lovely, easily to setup board
but do keep a a version with and a versio without the ghost
so now you have 2 x 2 = 4 maps
-
of course these are seperate files.
I am having problems locating the icons… the ones i got have a white backround which looks horrible. arrg.
-
we dont need a victory city chart do we?
-
if its not too much trouble :wink:
its should be really simple (no need for fancy watermark)
a horizontal row of flags, a row of city names, a row of VC points
technology, neutral, victory city and battle board would be nice if all the same colour/style scheme
-
are the 3 battleboards ok then? I just fixed them. they are great now.
did you check?
I am not too happy with them because i dont like the icons for the units. I need some decent icons ( and i dont want to make any from scratch)
BTW do you like the new embellishments on the phase 2 and 3 maps?
-
I can’t view it yet but 3 battleboard sho@Imperious:

separate battleboard should be awesome
you didn’t save with “pdf consent” so I’ll have to check it later at homeI am not too happy with them because i dont like the icons for the units. I need some decent icons ( and i dont want to make any from scratch)
for standard units you just take from OOB/LHTR right?
you mean the new units?
I’ll seeBTW do you like the new embellishments on the phase 2 and 3 maps?
last time I checked its whitened land-sea boarders and a shadwon under the flag
they are fine
again I’ll check at home -
tech/neutral player aid
tidier if you put all data tables on the buttom
at the moment its (=: data tables +:tech progress |:neutral position)
====||
++==||
++==||
++++||
++++||of course you have to recopy the data tables from the latest rule file again
but I think you know already :wink:(*technology data table -> all the “with” has changed to “at”, so its the same through the table
*neutral starting position data table -> “neutral is fully committed” changed to “Fully committed”, looks better, cos a bunch of “neutral” words in the middle +2 to -2
*dice rolls bonus wording changed) -
Ok i have finished the file with the icons. Im posting how it looks before i add it to the phase two map. Right now youll see what it would look like under phase three map.
-
ok here it is. enjoy. BTW i found a mistake Japan sea zone is supposed to be 60 and its labeled as 50. ill fix it. arrg. i hate when that happens.

I meant to tell you about that, we discovered it durring a game last weekend.

I love it IL, the starting icons is a big help.Your a master map-maker and I will be enjoying these.
-
thanks. ill have to add them to the phase two map as well.
the key thing was to find the proper icons. I didnt want to have to make my own.
thanks to Tim Lee at AH forums.

pretty good
setup time should be markedly reduced -
when I try to open the battle boards in photoshop or illustrator
it says fonts missing
can you change to some very standard fonts thnx
also the icons for optional units are not obvious, so maybe include unit names
(or maybe you have already…just the missing fonts not letting me see them)and for the maps
can you put “income numbers” with the layer where VCs are
I can see them in photoshop and illustrator
but when I convert them to pdf or jpeg I can’t see any income numbers
when I open them in acrobat reader I also can’t see any income numbers -
