Hit allocation aid

http://www.yourfilehost.com/media.php?cat=image&file=20070420_hit_allocation_aid.png

(I find PNG is great for our cartoonish graphics…lossless compression)

[Imperious Leader]

Looks decent.

Is there any way to get the latest and greatest of all of the AARHE .jpg files in one location.  I’m having trouble following all of these posts with the changes and edits.

[tekkyy]

Hi dandspach.

For a quick solution, go to boardgamegeek (link below) and download the 4 ZIP files.

1st post of this thread is maintained by Imperious Leader and has the latest. He made 95% of the AARHE graphics.
I made the hit allocation aid chart so its not in the 1st post yet. But its in the boardgamegeek ZIP files anyway.

We have two locations for file releases.

Victory City Chart

Quite packed. No room to put something like the IPC production chart for VCP points.

Hm…maybe this isn’t all that useful anyway.

[Imperious Leader]

Hey thats pretty nifty. Can you begin uploading the files on BBG?

[Micoom]

Looks good Tekkyy  :mrgreen:, but that Italian flag should be placed right off Bucharest instead of Berlin I think  :wink:

[tekkyy]

The hit allocation chart is with the battleboard ZIP files on BGG.
This isn’t on BGG yet.

Oh yeah, not Berlin.
Peer review is important.  :wink:

I’ve been printing these on matte (not gloss) photo paper.

Looks great I think.

Tekkyy i could just kiss you ! :-P

It just struck me how much of a professional job we did and what great promise our varient will provide to thousands of AA players. Please finish the path we both traveled on for so many months and upload all of the files. All the others who worked countless hours and days on this project have my unending support and best wishes. You are all held in high esteem and have accomplished something greater than the sum of our individual contributions. Now others have a chance to really play something terrific and we have given them value for their game and deserve any and all accolades that may ensue.

If you make a nice print of the map and other items please post the picture in Board Game Geek.
