This is an awesome idea. Only if you are particular, but when they numbered sea zones they missed out on the Caspian Sea which you can build units in, so i guess that would be sea zone 128…no biggy though.

Also what size could you enlarge this to before you lose quality i dont mind putting together pieces of paper to make the map up…i think stationary stores have printers or copiers that do A0 or A1 size paper or would you keep it to the original size of the board game?

[nimitz1]

I suppose it could go fairly big before it starts to lose some quality but it should do nicely for a map about 1.5 times the game boards.  Thats what I was aiming for, something about 1500mm x 800mm.  Whoever does your printing just make sure its scaled to suit your needs.

The original board is around 1750mmx800mm.

I think the best solution is to design a new map based on the original one with a better resolution. I never tried anything but IL does indeed have the skills to make one. I may try tough.

Hi Noll…thats what I did the fix-up for…decent resolution and it should be good out to around 2m.  see http://www.megaupload.com/?d=13F1QLF0

Columbia – Colombia
Equador --> Ecuador
Portugese Guiana --> Portuguese Guiana
Rio de ***??? --> Rio de Oro
Eire is missing (Pro-Allies)
Crete is missing (Pro-Allies)
Anglo-Egypt --> Egypt
Tanganeeka Territory --> Tanganyika Territory
Tsagaan Olom --> Tsagaan-Olom
Line Island --> Line Islands

And cosmetic changes that I would personally prefer:

( Pro-Allies), ( Pro-Axis) and ( Impassable) all have a space after the opening ‘(’ but not one before the closing ‘)’. Either use space on both sides, or on neither side.

And maybe you could divert that seazone 5/6 line a little bit to coincide with the Amur-Korea border? :-D
And if you really want to be perfect, a cosmetic change to make Quebec and New Brunswick border, to remove the ambiguity?

Hey

Hawaiian Islands needs 1 IPC.

Nimitz,

Have you finished this project yet?  Any photos of it?

[nimitz1]

Not yet…real life has caught up with me recently and I’ve had less time on my hands than I expected.  I’ll post here when I get it underway.
