Im not talking about a digital Map, but a real one. I consider myself very artistically minded so I think I could do it without it looking too bad. What materials would I need, how much time would it take? I wanna do a global map from about 1920.
JJ's Axis & Allies Global (detailed) custom map file (for large scale printing) + GIMP brushes

Inspired by the beautiful maps that can be found on the internet, I decided to teach myself GIMP and make a map for A&A Global myself. It contains many (historical) details and is therefore intended for large-scale printing. Please let me know if you find any mistakes in it, it was quite a job and then something can go wrong…
v2 released;
- Fixed ocean borders. (thanks to barnee)
- Some fixes in land value symbols.
- Added an extra layer with 4 px black inner borders. (At first I didn’t want too tight boundaries, but after playing with the necessary beer for a while, they turned out to be just a bit too unclear 😁)
- Kamikaze symbols checked and in red color now.

I also share the GIMP .xcf file so you can play around with the map as you like. In addition also the GIMP brushes you can use to place the several symbols.

@Lompestein Awesome work! Big thanks for including the .xcf’s and brushes as well, that should help others get a leg-up on their own projects.
