I saw your post sitting so long I registered to give you a few pointers on maps. Most if not all the WotC map packs are themed in some way. Originally they were 2" hexes but were changed some time ago. The map packs you mentioned are themed as follows: North Africa - 3 Desert maps and on reverse side 3 jungle maps. Eastern Front - 3 town/factory maps and on the reverse side 3 Russian steppes maps. There are two starters, the one in the cardboard box is the old one and contains 12mm mini’s and 2" hex maps. the new starter is in a blister pack and has 15mm mini’s and 3" hex maps. The maps in the new starter are mixed forest/hills/clear. The rules and revised cards are downloadable through the WotC site.
A couple of questions..
-
I came across the 4 tanks from a starter while looking for something else. I now remember buying a starter set, over a year ago. It was the box with the minis in blister packaging on the outside front of the box. So somewhere I have the rest of the set, I think.
Is that the most current starter set, with the most current rules? Reason I ask is that there’s a different looking starter set on the Wizards A&AM site.
If not, what’s the item # for a new set, or rules?
I’ve posted these question on 2 other forums, sorry for the cross posting, but hoping to get answers soon as I might get to do some shopping today.
Thanks.

I believe that was the new starter, after they re-released the set with a consistent (and larger) vehicle scale. There has since been several releases for the various theaters, and WotC relased new revised unit stats on PDF as well.
