@Combat:
look at Websites that print vinyl banners. You can get them as low as $50. I printed my map using cheapbanners.com
Thanks… I’ll check it out.
IL's New Global 1940 map file…

I appreciate the comments and have seen that map you worked on. I really only work on things that i feel some attachment too and a desire to see it finished. In your map it seems there are way too many areas and the game will take too long to play. Perhaps if you did a Europe only map for 1939.
-
I have the privilege of just being able to have a giant game sit on a table for weeks on end, so the large scale can play out over a week or two.
-
Consider if you just made a new version based on the maps i already made with new rules, many would be halfway ready to try it. Part of the issue with making new maps is the cost associated with investing another $100 into playing somebodies version of house rules. If they print off one of the larger OOB maps i already made, they can benefit by playing OOB or with the Varient. Also, changing the rules and perhaps adding new pieces and setup date but keeping the same map allows many to jump right into this new game without much expense.
That Global 1939 thing is a fluke, i know you want the same interest as that module. Part of their problem is they keep changing the rules and at a certain point that turns off people who just give up.
-
I dont really want to change the rules dramatically, I just want more territories. As odd as that may sound.
-
OK compromise:
Just do a Europe only map in the style of Global 40. Draw the lines you want. Lets do 48 x 48. I will redraw the map and use your ideas but they must be accurate ( the names of areas need to be researched so Flashman won’t come out with 50 different versions and post another one every five minutes). Lets’ let him have a vote on the names of areas, he knows like i do but he probably knows better.
Then we research the economic values and plug in IPC values to areas. Let’s base it on whatever year you want the game to begin. I have info on all years BTW.
Perhaps latter if this project is interesting i will do a hookup version of 48 x48 Pacific…down the road

I love the expanded maps. I have printed the 40x45 ones and love playing on them. It’s nice having the extra space to play on, and keep the units in there own territories. Just wondering how the 48x54’s will look live. :) Tons of space for more units to fight it out.

Albania is different color than other Italian territoriesOther than that, this is fantastic IL!
Thankyou :-D -
IL,
––Just marking this thread for future use of your wonderful maps. Thanks in advance. :-D
----BTW, if you’re ever interested in making a “variant” map,…I’d love to see what you could do for a
“Solomon Islands” Game with a map the size of a complete Global. Possibly 48" x 96" or 60" x 120".“Tall Paul”

You may have heard it all to often already, but i want to commend you on your work here. Great work on the digital map file.
Question is, Is this the same map as the 1940 2nd edition? What is the difference between the original and the 2nd edition? I am a current owner of the 2nd edition, and want to make a plexi board with no bend/hinge points ;)
P.S. if i knew how i would do the same myself. If i did know how I would like to have all of the set up right on the board, just like it is on the neutral territories. Makes for a much faster set up, which gets you to gaming much quicker… Faster gaming makes a happy gamer :)
-
It is 2nd edition, change was Canada went to one area ( from two) in Pacific.
-
Thanks for the speedy reply :-D
Im going to work on trying to get the set up of personnel right on the board. I have high hope for myself, but it may take a while :|
-
good. Make it to a high standard.
-
IL, having super hard time down loading this off 4share web site. can you please repost it using an oter site. thanks -chuck
-
Ok that was a request so ill make one for Mediafire

Sorry to that guy, but… I have no problem getting the pacific or europe maps but no luck with the combined map.
Also will you be going to GenCon this year? I need to buy you a beer!thanks agian
-chuck -
OK. You can reward me by bringing the map to Gen Con and posting pictures on this site.
I don’t have a combined map because everytime i try that the program crashes.
You are on your way to be a customizer!

@Imperious:

I was wondering the same thing about the combined map, so I combined the Europe, and Pacific maps. I tried to get the joint as seamless as possible. This full map is 108 x 48 Inches. I haven`t yet printed it, but looking forward to the print/table when I get a chance to build it.
