Improved Forced Perspective Map

@malstrom:

… a downloadable PDF photo of the global board?

In the Global-Thread there is at least a high-res. photo:

You can easily convert it into a pdf of course, but I assume you think about something like IL’s maps.

@daffy2war:

The suez and Panama canals have different sea zone #'s on either side of them but no white border seperating them, does this count as a free move through the canal?

The canal itself is not a space, but the two seazones are different and it does take 1 movement point to move from 98 to 81 and vice versa.

@noon:

invading turkey seems useless and dumb. why let the allies put all those extra men on the board, and what real advantage do you get from occupying turkey??? it makes no sense

The Axis take Turkey so they can move land units from Europe to Africa without using Russia to open a second front to attack the Brits in Cairo and Africa so that the Italians can become a threat the Germans send reinforcements especially with a major in romania.

Thats if your playing by the book I play by IL’s neutral rules where the true neutrals are split into blocks so that me invading turkey doesn’t give the US South America

If you want to move land units from Europe to Africa USE TRANSPORTS which are less expensive than taking Turkey and giving the US South America, UK Mozambique, Algeria, Afghanistan, Spain, and Portugal, and Russia Mongolia

The allies still get Spain, Portugal, Sweden, and Mongolia

hi guys!

since dynamic counter would ruin it: first post coming up!

to the point: i have a layered europe map in the works. as i understand modules for regular sw are a work in progress as well, i still found this the only way to have a ‘map’ ready in acceptable time (i’m from central eu, would take a month or so for the actual boxes to arrive…).

only problem is with the layering, in the sense that you do need some basic PS knowledge and the sw itself (or equivalent) if you want to use it… meaning tossing around units and so…

still, if you’re interested, let me know, should be ready around… sunday evening (US time)… expect a huge file… :)

also, right now i m using a 1500x1500px base map, the highest resolution i could find. if sone happens to have a better one, please redirect me… (map only, no units and glares and stuff like that)

(note: player with some AA experience - myself - seeking opponent for aae40 game, as posted under the relevant section…)

I think that functioneta means that you can travel from canda to mexico by sea zones

It’d still be nice not to have all the little edges and stuff

@Yoper:

I gave you the answer that I feel he will give you since it is similar to that which I believe he has given before.

Plus, it is better if you do the asking.  If you feel that it is a big deal, then take the time to ask a thoughtful question of him on his site and he should answer you.

Maybe I will. Who is the moderator on that site?

@Canuck12:

On that note though, I actually liked the subtle “watermarked” convoy and kamakazi zones.

Same here ;) just when the allies get too cocky you remind them of a kamakazi strike. “Oh, did’nt QUITE see that coming…”
