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 finished the facilities, blast markers, rockets and turn marker. Almost finished with the neutrals and their roundels.
Major and Minor IC.
Air Bases, Naval Bases, Blast markers for Battleships and Carriers, Rocket launchers for tech. (I tilted one on its side to see the color sticker) I also posted an example of a naval base on an orange chip noting damage to the facility. For the most part these will not be used since the map has them printed on it. These are for newly purchased or damaged facilities.
and now for my turn marker. I had originally posted a 12 sided dice with different countries on each side. I had problems making it magnetic without destroying it. So I came up with the Fatman which was the first plutonium bomb. I thought the Fatman would be appropriate since it was the weapon that ended the war. I thought about unveiling it on August 9 but decided to post it early. August 9th was the day it was dropped.

I wish I would have done this before I printed my map. I edited the roundels for Italy and replaced them with the fascist Italy roundel instead of Iran’s roundel. Why was the Iran roundel chosen to be Italy’s roundel?

You, sir, are an inspiration.
Given time, I think I’ll “sincerely flatter” your works.
