Thanks Brain, that would be about right. Although, not quite large as that because I has to trim the edge of the paper right to the map border (along the top and bottom half). But before you print it, make sure you go to page set up and set the size to fit ‘4 by 4’ on A4. Obviously, if your printer can do A3 then go ahead and do that. Well, it only just fits on my table. But the good thing is, the territories are pretty big.

Okay, let’s have a recount. So far we have seen the finished sculpts for the following units:

TANK
SELF PROPELLED GUN
INFANTRY 1
INFANTRY 2
COMMANDER
ARTILLERY

BATTLESHIP
AIRCRAFT CARRIER
DESTROYER
TRANSPORT

So what’s next, FMG? I understand that you are still developing the following:

SUBMARINE
CRUISER

FIGHTER
DIVE BOMBER
BOMBER
AIR TRANSPORT

HALFTRACK
TRUCK

BUNKER
NAVAL BASE
AIR BASE
ARMY HQ

Can you please confirm if this is all correct? Is there anything else I missed? Many thanks to you for all your hard work; it’s been about a year now and I hope all is running to schedule.  :-)

Hi all, the map prints out onto 16 sheets of A4 paper; I don’t know the exact dimensions of that though. It’s much bigger than the AA50 map.

Thanks for the correction on New Foundland; my typo there. Nova Scotia is connected to Quebec. Quebec will start the game with a Minor IC.

Thank you FMG, thank you! Just tell me when I can buy!! :-)

Hi guys. Nope, the neutrals will stay neutral in my game. And I have now fixed the Nova Scotia issue; thanks for pointing that out.

The blue installations are minor; the green major. This is a home made game of A&A Europe 1941 I am designing. Just working out the unit set ups.

Right, here we go. Capitols now more obvious, territory names and IPC values in place. Let me know if you spot anything incorrect or omitted by accident… Thanks!

The red dots act as both the victory cities and capitols. I could make a change to show London, Berlin, Moscow, Rome and Washington D.C. more clearly though. All the territory names and IPC values have already been determined and I will get them onto the map asap. Thanks Brain.

Nope, I changed it because I noticed the ‘Additional Options’ button below the text box, and it was as easy as that. The map is not quite finished. I just need to add the territory names and values, which I already have on paper.

Well here goes, hope this works:

Well, for that we would be grateful - really enjoyed the AAP40 one.  :-)

Yes, I’m curious to know the answer to that one as well.

Besides, they both look like Strategic Bombers. I thought a Tactical Bomber was smaller than a strat. I play Hearts Of Iron II and just using that as a resource, it has another class of plane called ‘Close Air Support’ (what we think of as a Dive Bomber).

Now, it’s my opinion that a dive bomber and a tactical bomber are two completely different things, with the dive bomber being extremely precise in its execution of ground attack. For example, the German Close Air Support (CAS) is the Stuka JU 87, and the German Tactical Bomber is the Junkers JU 88.

Just my thoughts.

Thank you for explaining that, Krieghund.

Yeah but are they legally empowered to stop somebody showing their game? I mean - they’re just officials, right? What can they do - make a citizen’s arrest?

Thanks Variable, I’ll give it a try. (I made it on paint and it’s currently saved as .jpg file.)

Well the map is pretty big. Put it this way - it’ll print out onto 8 sheets of A3!

Sure, I’d love to. The map is virtually finished but I’m not entirely clear on how to post it here on this forum.

I am currently making a super-sized Europe '41 game and my turn order is:

1 - Germany
2 - Soviet Union
3 - Italy
4 - United Kingdom
5 - United States

Amen to that. Even if the bases/installations are flat, at least they’ll be plastic. I tried giving my monopoly houses two coats of grey but it just scratches off too easily. Should have primed them first I think…
