@superbattleshipyamato Right. alot more complications introduces longer play. More areas means longer play, More units longer play. I wish their was a light 12 page version with only about 6-10 more units, not 60 more. The map would have about 60% less areas and play would take 2-3 hours but still be buckets of dice concept. That would be my wish plus dedicated piece sets or a version that used counters like nova games edition.
If anyone is interested in making a TripleA module of this….

Looking great so far Variance, keep up the good work.

OK I am up to part 4 of Veqryn’s tutorial “Map utilities”. This looks a bit technical but I will give it a try when I get some time. Here is the map resized down to 40% of its original size so I could post it here (the full size one is 4806kb). I am assuming that at some stage in the process it will get me to upload the whole directory to somewhere??
I also made 100/100 pixel roundel files for it with the same textures I used in this map as background. You can’t see the textures on the reduced map so I will post a couple examples. I also made roundels for it with the same textures as background so I will post a couple of those too.
So here’s the map so far (islands, convoy zones and other stufff are not done).
-
USA roundel
-
USA texture
-
impassable texture (looks rocky to me)
-
seazone texture (waves)

proallies neutrals

ok so i took your .png of the map
i opened it up in paint.net
and then i:
1. clicked “black and white”
2. clicked “contrast” and set the contrast to +100%
3. repeated step 2, two more timesthe result is a map without those offwhite pixels
feel free to use this for your basetiles

As Veqryn is no longer active in TripleA and hasn’t visited this forum for seven years just - out of curiosity - let me ask please:
Have you created TripleA maps in the past? Or are you going to start from scratch?
