I just wanted to say that I printed out a very large map size at 2440mm x 1118mm ( roughly 8 foot x 4 foot) on a digital printed transparency with a matt laminate and it has turned out fantastic. The quality was amazing. I searched everywhere to see if it could upscale and could not find the answers. Hopefully this will help someone who is thinking of doing the same.
I have built a custom table with magnets sunken into the table to hold the map in place. I wanted to use the table to play other games so the map had to roll up.
I also wanted to use the table for Global War 1936 and the magnets work well

Tall Paul,
Sorry but Ambilzi is the computer guy of the equation who scanned the original map, I’m the one who designed all the info that clutters the board… lol.
Ambilzi is an extremely busy guy, but I will ask him if he has a basic map file he can share with us.

––Thanks a lot. I’ve been thinking about getting an “improved” version of my enlarged G-40 map.
I really like the White-colored convoy zones on the map you two have made.
––And as far as “the clutter”,….it is well done but just not my preference. Besides, I like to have as many items as possible represented in 3-D form,….like HBG’s new rectangular Airbase pieces(shown below). Also, I like to be as flexible as possible concerning future changes,…like new UNIT TYPES on a Battle Board. Thanks again and I’ll look for your and Ambilzi’s answer.“Tall Paul”

I’d be interested in a vanilla map aswell.
That is: No bases, no information boxes, no turn tracker, no IPC tracker, etc etc…

Here’s a teaser pic before I post my youtube video.
Great looking table. Those recessed blue compartments for equipment are a very nice feature.

Hey there folks,
Here’s as vanilla as I’ve got these days:
https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/14003625/axisandallies.pdf
It’s the base map scanned in, creases and stuff removed, map corrections added, and a few minor aesthetic improvements such as more visible convoy/kamikaze icons
It’s about 100 MB and hosted on my dropbox (so be warned it may not stay there forever, if someone wants to re-host it, feel free!)
The file is a pdf about 20,000 pixels wide by about 9,000 pixels high.
I have a PSD file with layers for modifying, but it’s rather large and I don’t really have access to a decent host that would publicly make available a 1+ GB file.
If you would prefer not to have the “adjacent to” text on the far left and right borders, let me know and I think I can make that change.also, A&A.org isn’t exactly on my ‘frequent visit’ websites I’m afraid, so your best bet of getting ahold of me is a PM.

Thank you very much Ambilzi, I have converted your PDF into a JPEG and it can be found here…

Awesome thanks guys…
If i may push the line a tad farther…anyway to get it without the unit charts?

A shame for me to just profit off all your hard work, but thanks so much guys. This is excellent.

SSSSHHHH!!! We don’t use the word “profit” in this thread… It’s a free exchange of gaming materials :)

So it is! My mistake. :wink:

Here is a link to a jpeg file of the map without mobilization zones… so you’re free of stat evidence that interfere with your advanced house rules :wink:

That is beautiful,
Thanks to both of you guys :-D
