Europe Map Projection Redux

[RJL518]

PRETTY COOL INDEED…U MIGHT BE VERY CLOSE TO THE REAL THING

[oztea]

my sea zones are way off……i have a gut feeling

[mike b]

Sicily should be worth 1 to make it worth attacking
also Ottawa is totally in the wrong place  :mrgreen:

[Guest]

Do you work for WOTC?

[oztea]

I work at a junkyard

Im going to rework the map tomorrow more than likely

Things I know are 100% right

The names of the UK territories in Africa
UK is two territores
5 territores between Berlin and Moscow territores (need to fix on map)
“some” neutrals will have IPC values in europe (need to fix)

thats all i have gathered from Larry and Krieghound….

I bet my seazones are wrong…i bet it takes more moves to get to UK from US
russia is all messed up stillm thgere where threads on larrys board where he said how many moves from one city to the other (lenningrad to rostov is 2 territioreis away(
seazones in mediteranian need reworked (1 island per zone)

[Guest]

I bet your map will probably be better than what WOTC puts out and with less typos too

[oztea]

new template
No IPC values just yet

Great job!

Minor points:
Sweden has too many ee’s!
Canadian capital should be on Ontario side of Quebec border.
And Nunavut should be Northwest Territories.

[oztea]

i also forgot to lable cyprus

Nunavut is Nunavut because i think there is already a northwest territoreis space in pacific….or is that yukon territory…i cant remember

Some thioughts:

I start from the OLD Europe Map.

Yiours has some features that seem Ahistorical …

AMERICAS

Canada - I think there wont be that many provinces: merge Newfoundland with Quebec, Merge Manitoba and Nunavut (or whats called)
USA - I had hoped that the US is split into NewEngland, Old South and Great Plains (add NewOrleans as another VC please ;)
South America - I think Brazil should start as NEUTRAL Allies leaning…
Guyana could should be UK, but I think it will be left out.
I’d suggest to Split Argentine int 2 (Chile)
Wondering if Equador, Paraguay and Uruguay should be on the map too

AFRICA

North Africa looks good to me (maybe a VC to Lybia)

I do not like the look of the Congo/Nigeria area - I especially hate the SouthWest Africa “label” Its so wrong…
Another territory carved from the Sahara - Tchad
Mediterranian- another SZ splitting Corisca and added Baleares
Malta SZ splited into East and West
Create SZ splitted to North and South

ASIA

Split Transjordan into Palestine and Transjordan
Split Persia to North and South
Split Dheli to Baluchistan and Bombay (instead of Dheli)
Instead Yemen better Aden (in the 40s)
Add Kuwait as UK posession NOT bordering Transjordan.

EUROPE PROPER

I LOVE Green Spain ;)

AUstria SHOULD CZ and Hungaryare too much in the East

Austria should be between Bavaruia and Northern Italy and not Bordering Bulgaria
Italy could be one more territory maybe
Add Bessarabia teritory- bordering Romania instead of Hungary
Instead Novgorod /(city) better Karelia(merge karelia/rename

BTW I loved the Circle treatment of the russian Cities in old AAE ;)

Yugoslavia should border Greece

I believe Vyborg should be smaller and Karelia extend to Encompass the Kola peninsula which is now falsely treated as part of Finland

Finland, Bulgaria, Hungary and Romania should start Neutral - Axis leaning IMHO

BTW - great job you did here

“Hey Emperor_Taiki, East Africa – how will this be represented in AAE40?
Well I think so. I mean the French, the Italians and the British are all represented down there. I mean there’s Kenya, Tanganyika Territory, Rhodesia, Union of South Africa, South West Africa, British Somaliland, Anglo-Egyptian Sudan and an administered from London - Belgian Congo, and that’s just the British stuff… Hope this answers your question.” - Larry

[Guest]

You didn’t name the territory in the middle of France.

[oztea]

“I am the man with no name…zapp brannigan, at your service”

whoops on that france thing…

[Guest]

Also the upper right Russian territory is missing it’s name as well.

I am not criticizing, I am only trying to be helpful.
