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?

It’s all the same sea zone so I really don’t see what difference it would make….If you can amphib into Bulgaria you might as well go a millionth of an inch over and amphib into Constantinople.
-
But Greece is likely to be less well defended, and from there you can attack Constantinople over land. There’s nothing the Turks can do about this other than invading Greece and adding 4 units to the Allies. With correct Bulgaria, they can use that tt as a front line against the Allies.
-
Or they can let the Allies invade and take the damage from 4 extra ottoman units and then constantly just pump reinforcments over from 1 whole province away. Not to mention with only 2 transports in the region, it would take a small mirical of the dice for the Allies to actually threaten the Ottomans from Greece. And if the situation is one where the allies can afford a large fleet of transports for more units…then it’s likely that the Centrals have already lost.

Are these micro dice?
-
I assume its the 12mm size, like in this chessex box.

For completions sake the final update:
Just spotted the SZ 22 border needed changing.

MVP award to Flashman for his excellent map work over the past months.
Thanks again, Flashman :-)
-
Hmm, looking at the pic it seemed that the dice were quite small compared to the chips.
-
I have to agree with wove100
Thanks Flashman for the previews

Really not happy with the quality of the dividing line between the two boards; see attached. My 8 year-old niece could do a better job making those match up. Hope this is just a ‘prototype’ board that djensen got a hold of, not the production model.
-
I am sure it will be that bad or worse.
I am upset the dividing line doesn’t run the other way through the med and italy. Instead it runs smack dab through the western front!
What were they thinking!
-
Well, the 1940 boards didn’t exactly match up very well either (in colors or lines), what do you expect?
-
The boards should have run with the split going horizontal not vertical.
Instead of cutting through the western front, and all its clumped up territories, it could have ran South West to North East, through the Ukraine, Budapest, Italy, the Mediteranian, and the Sahara.
-
Probably would have been a good idea.
-
As it stands now the line bisects 13 land territories and 7 sea zones.
The other way the line would bisect 9 land territories (and Sahara) and 4 sea zones.
-
I though they’d sorted this type of production problem: had a big gap in my American Civil War board. Really no excuse for it.
-
It appears they worked hardest at matching Greece.

Even though, arguably, they got the flag wrong:
-
Must be their anti-monarchist tendencies as Americans.

Yes very good point, Larry really has no help of this obvious stuff. Can’t count on WOTC to look at AA products with objective reasoning. It is too bad really.
