    • Rules clarification. Sea Zone 3

      Can anyone tell me if the UK can place purchased units in sea zone 3? It looks like it’s touching the main island but not by much. Does it mention this anywhere in the rulebook by chance?

    • RE: Large scale AA42 map

      @Imperious:

      But if you check this can the file be edited?

      Technically yes (however not easy). But for those people that just want to get it printed I don’t think that would matter. Maybe offer two versions? One that everyone can download and a second editable file for those that can find someplace for you to upload it. Just a suggestion.

    • RE: Large scale AA42 map

      @c64:

      And one more idea :
      I just took your old map ( around 91,5 MB) and saved it again in Illustrator CS3 as a PDF file with the option “Preserve Illustrator Editing Capabilities” unchecked.
      See here ( first line ) :

      This reduced the size from 91,5 MB to 16,9 MB !   Maybe you try this.

      I just tried this as well and that’s what I got. Good solution. :-D

    • RE: Printing a large scale map

      You have to tile your pages when you print. It’s under page scaling.

      I have Illustrator CS3 as well. How small is the .ai when you .zip it? Did you embed all the images or do you have them linked?

      Edit: Might be able to cut down on file size if you zip the source files and .ai separately and have multiple downloads.

      What program are you designing and laying this out in?

      What’s all that junk? I had a 1 year subscription about a year and a half ago from purchasing a laptop from Dell and their datasafe worked without a hitch.

      Keep us posted! Your new map looks great.

      Edit: Dell has a DataSafe service that allows you to upload up to 2 gigs free (as a trial). It allows you to share files with anyone.

    • RE: Axis & Allies 1942 Game Board Size

      I finally went to my local Target and picked it up. I set it up just for kicks and I couldn’t help but laugh at the game board. Not not sure if the boards too small or if the pieces are too big. Either way the two don’t mesh. I would have gone with smaller pieces if everyone was set on the board as is. Might have saved a little more money too.

    • RE: Axis & Allies 1942 Game Board Size

      Yeah I think the game board size is a big turn off for me. I’ll have to look into how much it would cost to get a large map printed.
