Hey IL, I remember from your old website you had an eastern front map where the territories were cut into hexagons. Not the huge one, but a smaller one. Ring any bells?
Yes and that file was also found as like 2 others, but the one you speak of did see the light of day ( printed it out and played many times, the others not). I cant throw that out as a freebee. I may still make that a game.
You know i can send it to HBG…good idea
That map was awesome BTW and huge. the smaller one was played to death and too me wasn’t that fun. I will look and post if i find it.

I bought the big one from you, but also wanted the little one. Let me know if you find it! :lol:

Which map is for the Eastern front ?
Which map is for the War in the East ?
Which one was better ?
Which map is for the War in the East
Thats an other map. Its quite good and large, you wanted the smaller ones which i posted and are all eastern front style games.
The best one will go to HBG. i want to see what they do with it and it probably happens to be the one you really want. I will post some playtest pics and you can tell me if its the one.

I have the big one, but never played it. Never found anyone wanting the challenge. Also I had it printed out on 2 huge posters making it a little unwieldy.
Yes, that is it!
That is a great map! I made a few minor alterations on it. I think the 1942 starting line crosses the Don River right north of stalingrad, which didn’t happen. Also, I think there was a direct rail head to Stalingrad from the east.
Here is an image:
Thats the one to be submitted to HBG, im interested to see what alterations you made. I mean to say those were the only two changes?
I see that one hex control is German and its over the river Volga. I need to check on things. I can always edit it.

No, there were a few other minor things. I think I slightly moved some of the cities around? Maybe altered some rail roads? I’ll see if I can’t dig up the map.

Hey, I found it!
If you want, I can PM/email you list of changes I made for historical accuracy.
Yes, thats the map I’ve seen before.
Question, how many pieces aloud in each hex ?
War In The East setup just random deploy or setup charts ? I only scanned the rules to see if I had them.
let me dig up the rules…

above are rules links to those map files
Regarding the game with the really nice map, It says 4 land units per hex, unlimited air
So I take it the really nice map that you gave to HBG has its own rules ?
I like how the Eastern Front rules are simplified.
Yes really professional, but i didn’t give it to them just yet. Doug and I will have a conversation first.
Plus the map needs changes, minor
Last question. So your saying wait for the Game if it comes from HBG ?
What was wrong with the Eastern Front map and rules ? To conjested at the fronts and to spread out ?
Regarding Eastern Front et al files, etc:
I don’t know what was going on with those modules unless i basically replayed the games. They are dutifully made with real Historical positions and ratios of units. So where units are and how many IS really Historical to a fault.
Stacking limitations: The German player is allowed to stack up to 6 land units in each hex, while the Soviet player can stack up to 4 units per hex. Planes in cities do not count against stacking limitations.
sorry Karl this is the correct rules of stacking for Operation Barbarossa
