AAA flag and banner. All done via internet. They mail in a tube and no gimmicks
I just need more than say 30 people to say “make this”
100+ hours of my time won’t go wasted then. Also, to motivate me get me a great scan of the 2nd edition map so i can trace it.
I would definitely print it out. All of my A&A maps are SUPER-SIZED! :)
I don’t have my board any more, but there is a picture of the board in the rules, which can be found here

it may not be high enough res for your purposes… I tried…
I would love this map! I specifically got on here today to see if there was one available…
I would print it :-D
Already have your spring42 map and 50th both supersized.
I would also print it.
The printing service mentioned above, will they also ship to Denmark?
I would also like to print it.
To whom it may concern: I know a manufacturer in germany, printing those maps in a high quality (blockout banner, 720 dpi eco solvent print) for low costs (e.g. for AA1942 first edition 162cm x 86cm, 42 Euros plus 22 Euros for shipping).
Just get me a good scan head on without distortion. A good large Picture could work, note the one on this site wont work. Just help me out and i can do the rest… kinda lazy but once i get going, it is a firestorm.
@Imperious: I`m not in on the scanning thing, but I tend to give an order to a copy shop to scan the map. Afterwards I would load the file up or, if possible, send it to you. Are there any recommendations concerning file format or size or scanning parameters?
Well if you do it i can guarantee that i make a map from it.
The scan or picture must be head on, no angles just drop down view and good lighting. For a poor example, check out Djensens picture of 42.2 from this site. A good example would be his picture of 1914. I drew my map from it.
Do it and you guys got the map. I can try to finish before Christmas.
I’m late to the party. But throwing my vote yes please on this…
(I was one of those who bugged you about this!) - Can’t wait!
@ imperious: right now I’m searching for a scan/copy shop, able to scan an unflexible paperboard in a size of DIN A0. Till now, I found only one shop in Hamburg, unfortunately, they can print the map at the earliest on January, 6th. So, it looks like that we won’t receive an additional christmas gift (:-().The format of the scan file will be “*.TIFF”, resolution 300dpi - would this fit the requirements for you?
yes that works, but you know if you scanned the map as a PDF or PNG you would do much better.
Do I understand this correctly - a PDF- or a PNG-file would work better as a TIFF-file? Or do you mean, if I scanned in PDF or PNG I would need a higher resolution as 300 dpi?
TIFF is like JPEG, which this format causes image to pixelate. PDF or PNG not. No TIFF file- instead PDF or PNG
@ IL: I’ve sent you a personal message concerning the actual development.
Yep, working on it in 48 hours
IL: Yes, please make this map. My friends and I get together every week to play using your AA42 Supreme Map. We are forever indebted to your work on that. The large printed map is amazing! We want to buy this version of the game, but we don’t want to go back to playing on a small game board. If you can make this, that would change everything :)
I am 60x39…. 50% larger
IL: Thanks for the 1st edition supreme map. I have some muscle control issues and the larger map is just more fun. Is the work on the 2nd edition larger map really happening. It will be well used and loved, if so!
