I got the map printed for buddy ( not Barons version) and here is a few pics of map and his painted pieces

Pardon my ignorance, but the point of this map is to print it on a larger scale than the one that comes in the box or there are other changes (territories, sea zones, etc) done as well?
I just got this board game a few days ago, and haven’t had a chance to open it up yet so wondering if I should just start with printing this map or not.
Thanks!
The printable map is 167cm x 86cm, the OOB map is 107cm x 67cm. The printable map consists of the landscape style (background bitmap) of the 1942 1st-edition map (created by imperious leader) AND/BUT the border and territory configuration of the 1942 2nd-edition map. The map of 1942 1st ed. was used because the OOB 1942 2nd ed. was barely nice (awfully stretched territories especially in Europe).
So, yes, the point was to put the 1942 2nd game to a larger scale than the OOb map. Seazones and territories remained the same as OOB.

Little up for Dedo about the final version of this map :wink:
Some final clicks have to be made…after roundabout 40 hours of work…
You will receive several maps:
I recommend to CHECK THE MAP before printing! All borders are new, all names new.
Newest version, triple border, mob zone, IPC track:
I STRONGLY RECOMMEND TO CHECK THE MAP PRIOR PRINTING!
PLEASE LOOK ON p.2 AND p.3 OF THE THREAD FOR THE FINAL VERSIONS!!!
5 VERSIONS OF DIFFERENT STYLE ARE DELIVERED!!!
Newest version, double border, Mob zone, IPC track:

Again, thanks a lot. Will wait for the two last one, check them, and see which one i will print. You are the boss !
I have, myself, translated into french, for those who would be interested:
Both file downloads are corrupt for me.
What do you mean by “corrupt”?
You cannot download the file? It does not open? There are failures in the map?
Both file downloads are corrupt for me.
I just downloaded both maps without any problems. Maps were displayed correctly. I assume, you may have done a mistake in the download procedure?
Correct procedure:
1. click on link
2. screen of mediafires open, a download starts, but:
3. interrupt the download by clicking on the download button at the upper right top of the screen:
Will wait for the two last one, check them, and see which one i will print.
It would be sufficient, if you checked just one of the files! The files are more or less identical. If the 3-borderstyle map with IPC and Mz is correct, than the other files would be correct, too. The remaining two versions (without Mob zone, without IPC-Chart) I’m going to release as soon as no failures occure in the check of the already uploaded files.
This procedure is just due to a lot of work lurking if only one mistake is revealed: if one file is incorrect, I will have to correct all four files, make four new pdf’s und will have to upload four more files. Thats two hours of work.
Will try to check the map tomorrow.
Ok Dedo, i spent some time checking the 1942 2ed and 1941 maps. I will reply in the right section for 1941 ed.
So, what i noticed concerning the 1942 2ed map :
Hope that helps

I won’t have accesss to the internet until friday.
The most schocking is the german insigna : there is some red missing up and down which gives them a weird/unifinished look. (and under the title of the game too)
No change, it must be an individual screen solution error, can’t see any differences.
East Mexico, not East Mexiko, and Mexico, not Mexiko
Fixed.
“Panama Canal” and “Suez Canal” are missing
Fixed.
On the original map, it is written “Anglo Egyptan Sudan” not "Anglo Egypt Sudan
Fixed.
The slashes (ex : Spain/portugal), i think they are too thin
No more slashes.
The drawing on Sea zone 55 & 58 has a problem of transparency if you look closely (the other drawings do not have this problem
Fixed.
Sea zone 52 : this is written Wake instead of Wake Island
Fixed.
On the mobiization zone, “UNIT STATS” is missing if compared with the original. Stas are ok, even not given in the same order (i personnally prefer yours)
No change, I omitted “unit stats” voluntarily, there is no relevant information.
The starting IPC are 31 for UK (instead of 30) and 41 for Germany (instead of 40) . RThere may be an errat, i did not check
No change, 31 and 41 are the correct IPC values, already displayed on the map.
Hope that helps
Yes, it did.
