@fieldcommander The only issue with the larger map 5x10 are the reach ranges. So if leave some space around the edges for pieces and such you might have a hard time reaching the middle of the board, like the all important Mediterranean, especially if you have short arms like me!
AA50 3-D Terrain Gaming Table (COMPLETED July 20, 2010)

I think you called Z61 “63.” That’s the zone that borders Hong Kong
:-o You’re right. Another fix. lol
-
Also I think Japan SZ is SZ 60 not 62.

BY FAR…. the nicest board I have ever seen!

And … it’s FINISHED.
I just need to set it back up and take some photos … then it’s game time!

That is some great work! I hope you have fun playing on that monster. I’m also going to move to canada to play with you.

Except for putting on some legs (Currently sitting on top of my poker table), this is now COMPLETE! Very difficult to get good photos with the plexiglass top on. :(

We have been playing on this board for about 2 months now… AWESOME!!!
Rorschach: Allies
Jeremy: Axis
Turn 15 and still no clear winner or advantage! (we play one hour a week)
The board is even more impressive in person… where you can see the 3D terrain.

Nice job. It seems from the pictures you have a sheet of glass over the board to keep the units from tipping, rigth?
You could have painted at the borders, IPC values, territory names etc. on the glass. That way you could easily use the 3D map for different games by changing the glass overlay :)

I think that having different sheets of painted glass for different games would be an expensive proposition. I don’t know how much Rorschach’s setup cost him, but the acrylic sheet which covers my own AA50 table set me back over a hundred bucks.
