I’ve created a separate thread for my work on the OOB 1914 map. Please go here to discuss it in more detail.
Images of the Map?

And the power to unleash the Spanish Influenza.
Ha! Roll two die per unit. “Snake eyes” means death.

Here’s a printer-friendly version of the map Flashman uploaded, for those of you who’d like to playtest the map without using a gallon of cyan.
Yes, it’s a little “Easter-y,” and we’re still missing many of the IPC values, but if you want to get a rough feel for how the game plays, here you go.
P.S., If someone can figure out how to format this so it prints out on 8.5"x11"'s, that’d be awesome.

Is there an easy way to rotate it so you get more on the paper; don’t know if the image is quite square.

I can rotate it in MS Photo editor, but it tends to distort the pixels a bit.
Edit: Here it is.
-
Nice, I quite like that look. Do one for me when I get the map finished!
-
Here’s one where I upped the resolution and “printed” it to a PDF, should be able to just print it out on standard paper. Might be a bit big (like 42" instead of 36") but close.

I’ve started a new post here (http://www.axisandallies.org/forums/index.php?topic=30159.0) with my setup on the printed board. Not too shabby!

Slight revision of the map, I’ve put the Finland border where it should be after noticing a line I hadn’t seen before.
What I can’t see is the SZs in the north; is it possible that (ref my map) SZs 6 & 11 are one, and that SZ 11 actually lies between 10 & 12? Seems rational, but damned if I can see.
It would make a profound difference to the Allies if a transport could sail from London to Archangel in one move.
Note that Finland didn’t have an arctic coastline, in fact I don’t think it ever did.

Looks like the north is more like this:
Still not quite sure about the borders of Kiel-Berlin-SZ 11, though.
Thanks to DJensen for help with this.
-
Oh, nice. So Petrograd is actually in Karelia.
-
Seems so. It’s possible the Kiel-Berlin border may run down the middle of Schleswig-Holstein, but that would mean that Kiel isn’t in Kiel…
Seems strange that there are no ships in SZ 11, I assume there’s a German NB adjacent. Possibly Kiel services both SZs via the canal.
-
This is a possible solution to the contradictory information about the Kiel area:
-
The is the solution from the Diplomacy map, quite possible given the heavy influence of that game.
Denmark is considered a joint land/sea area, Ships can pass from SZ 10 to 11 via the canal.

Flash Im pretty sure the IPC value of Constantinople is 6.

Question? What is with the pic of LH in Mexico?
Thanks for your maps, they have all been great. I bet your map will be better than the actual map. Will you continue to update it as we get more info and all the IPC values?
-
I want this map to be as close as possible to the production map, so Mexico had to go.
What better to replace it with?
Another note: Finland should not have an Arctic coastline (not until 1920):

Flashman, can you make out more of the map from the ‘6 second box opening’?

I don’t think anyone can with the speed of that video. I tried to pause it but couldn’t figure out how. I swear, that thing’ll give someone a seizure.
