AARHE: Map files

@Imperious:

You should dump the squares with that anchor and put the ports inside on the territory. make the anchor white and the box the same color as the territory so we dont have to see those lame boxes and slit our throats

surprised you didn’t make buryatia a port.  :lol: :lol:  there are way to many of them. i aso think there are too many victory cities too.

Oh yeah you still haven’t replaced the links in your first post with these.

Actually all 4 versions (standard/italy, plain/setup) of the map still has Sahara as “Impassable” rather than “Desert” lol.

And to be easier for my print outs I might even put “Strait Interdiction” and terrain bonuses on the map too.

Maybe we should have a list of known issues haha.

actually replace the dead links with these even newer links
on my ISP webspace so won’t be inactive deleted
fixed a few typos here and there (eg. UK player aid battleship was still 24 IPC, just picked it up in a game)

Updated “standard” map:
Honululu, Tobruk and Dakar VC added.
Hong Kong VC replaced Shanghai.
Astrakhan VC replaced Almaty.
Gibraltar, Argentina, Peru, New Zealand, China now mountainous.

(AARHE’s “standard” map is a map that keeps revised’s IPC and unit setup. The only border change is that Baltic Sea can no longer access Western Europe. Information are added to help new players.)

edit: two broken links are fixed by adding “_”

Put these latest links up.

I found a solution to the certain symbols (like IPC icons) in our illustrator file disappearing in PDF and photoshop.

You can “fix” the symbols.
The VCP icons works. But the IPC icons don’t.
One difference. The IPC icons have text.

Break link to the symbols.

I’ll post 300dpi files shortly.
And we can now use adobe reader to view the .ai files. After those changes.

http://home.exetel.com.au/cometo/20071208_AARHE_standard_with_setup.tif

fixed: Switzerland missing IPC icon

white screen?
its probably the white border
remember its 300dpi so if your browser is not set to auto zoom out…hehe

oh and browers don’t tend to load TIFF

regardless, you can do right click and go Save-As

by the way I just realise Spain’s mountainous terrain was left out hehe

further small fixes

fixed: added missing Spain mountainous
fixed: added missing Turkey destroyer
change: increased battleship icon size so its easier to tell part from destroyer

2008-01-27 special edition PDF
special edition: AARHE on real world map
http://www.mediafire.com/?ajxgtrxurlj

only practical for very large prints
you need 1.8m to get Europe the same size at original game board

OOB = out of box
SE = this special edition

OOB
gameboard 51cm x 84cm
play area 46cm x 78cm
Norway to Southern Europe 21cm
Western Europe to West Russia 23cm

SE
play area 84cm x 178cm
Norway to Southern Europe 24cm
Norway to Southern Europe 23cm

I was thinking they won’t fit.
They’ll come in at a later stage when I decide on size problems for the special edition.

If we go through with the make-pretty update to normal AARHE maps those’ll have territory and VC text.
