AARHE Historical Map

The compression really murders it.

[tekkyy]

I just upload to rapidshare.de etc
whatever file
don’t matter if its 10MB

what are those greyish worm looking things?

[Admiral_Thrawn]

It’s so compressed. Those are rivers.

[Guerrilla Guy]

It still looks like an easy run to Moscow!

I cant see anything… can i get a larger pic?  I hope you added Malta  The territories are mostly great, but then again its hard to tell.

[tekkyy]

@Imperious:

also we need to add Malta to the phase 3 map. It was a very strategic point.

I feel that gibrater and Malta should have more significace in the game than territories devoid of value. The loss of either would have major problems for england.

oh just add Malta and give it interdiction abilities like our Gibratar

[Imperious Leader]

Ok fine.

[tekkyy]

and you can put units at Malta just like Gibraltar right?

[Imperious Leader]

of course… but gibrater and malta need soem defense after all they are fortresses of sorts… say that in these locations you need 2 hits to kill a unit… that like double defense or you can go triple defense?

[Admiral_Thrawn]

Malta is there but, the picture is so compressed you can’t tell.

[tekkyy]

after all they are fortresses of sorts… say that in these locations you need 2 hits to kill a unit

yeah we could do that

but gotta define
how many units the fortifications can hold
how many units the little piece of land can hold
which units (I say only INF) gets the 2-hit-to-kill bonus

eg.

Malta
*10 friendly land units
*3 INF takes 2 hits

[Imperious Leader]

Yes only infantry… but it really does not matter… nobody is gonna put tanks in Gibrater… 2 hits per unit is fine… stacking limit makes sence … say 3 units in malta/ gibrater… stacking limits on small islands should be at 3-6 units max… prob 3-4

[tekkyy]

which other “small islands”?

like Wake and Midway?

[Imperious Leader]

Yea all pacific islands sake Japan and aus.  it may be too complicated and maybe we should stick with just malta and gibrater. what you think?>

[tekkyy]

I would refer to numbers

Solomon Islands 28,450km^2
Malta 316km^2
Gibraltar 6.5km^2
Wake Island 6.5km^2
Midway ~5km^2
Caroline Island 3.76km^2

I would then limit

Gibraltar, Wake, Midway, Caroline
to 3 units

Malta (population today 400,000)
to 6 units, 3 with garrison ability

[Jennifer]

Will you make it possible to add the new maps to abattlemap?

[Imperious Leader]

Lets just make them all the same… say 3 units max stack… that way its simple.

[tekkyy]

yeah ok 3 units max for Gibraltar, Wake, Midway, Caroline and the new Malta

whats abattlemap?

[Imperious Leader]

OK the new map for phase 3 is basically done. I added finland at 2 ipc and norway is at 1 ipc, 2 pacific islands got 1 ipc each ( caroline/ solomons)
Australia is 2 territories 1 ipc each… added all new VC cities…

one problem the japanese capital of Manchuria ( manchukuo is Hsinking and not Changchun… you may need to change the name on the file for the draft.

added all neutral ipc values and changed all neutrals to white color.

Spain and her colony are a light brown … so if you attack rio de oro you are attacking spain as well.

anything else?

[tekkyy]

ok changing to “Hsinking” for Manchuria

actually no! I don’t think Spain should be light brown just to show Spain / Rio De Oro combo
this is a tiny thing and not worth introducing a different color

just make a small note to remain players
(like “U.S. Supported…” and “Free French…” message)

email me both the latest phase 2 and phase 3 maps plz

I wanna see other details like Turkey/Balkans and Black Sea
