Re: Sired's Map project - Updated- 4/16 - files available see first post

Anyone who knows if it was intended that Sired blood changed the IPC of Celebes from 3 to 4 on his OOB map?

Here are my latest ship customizations, the CV-4 Ranger and CV-7 Wasp. These two ships have been missing from my aircraft carrier lineup. Now I have all the US aircraft carriers available from the Lexington class to the Midway class.

The Ranger & Wasp have highly detailed flight decks and authentic hull camouflage. As you can see, the realism is taken to the next level. There simply isn’t anything else like them offered on the market. These look good in pictures but they don’t quite capture the magic of holding one in your hand.

Both are fully magnetized to hold two aircraft.

The Ranger is a 3D print sculpt from EBard Models.

Nice work @ari236

@Playing-Kid said in My First Custom Map:

You can use Gimp as a great free software to make your maps

And I agree with Gimp. That’s the tool I used for working on my map files.

I have recently had a new business open in my town that does custom printing.  He is a very nice guy and can get maps printed on vinyl and many different materials.  He can also do other things as well like cards and player aids.  His prices seem pretty good too.  theonedesigner.com

I have made alterations, mostly to territory values along with adding a few new territories, to the Global 40 game to more accurately (as I believe) reflect the relative values of the given territories of the game map. Here is a list of my changes and/or additions;
United States (value 47)…… East US 20, Central US 12, West US 10, Alaska 2, Hawaii 1 & Philippines 2
Canada (value 11) …  NB & NS 1, Quebec 3, Ontario 3, A-S-M 2, British Columbia 2 & NWT (new territory north of A-S-M) 0.
ANZAC (value 6) … New Zealand 2, Queensland 1, New South Wales 2 & Victoria 1 (S. Aus, W. Aus & NT all now 0).

Soviet Union (value 37) … Russia 6, Ukraine 3, West Ukraine 3, Novgorod 3, Baltic States 2, East Poland 2, Belarus 2, Rostov 2, Volgograd 2, Caucasus 2, Smolensk 1, Bryansk 1, Vologda 1, Samara 1, Tambov 1, Kazachstan 1, Novosibirsk 1, Yenisey 1, Yakut 1 & Amur 1. All other territories are now 0.

Maybe someone else will alter their game boards to these values. They are more accurate (relatively speaking) than what is presented by the game developers.

@DiscoKnekt:

Nice table! Really like the NO cards! We have a problem that people tend to forget what NOs they have so we need some kind of reminder, maybe this is solution! Is there any chance you could share the file for the cards so that i save some time typing them? :)

My NO card deck will be available soon, I will let you know by PM how you can get one when they’re ready.

one additional comment:

I recommend to follow the map1942.2-thread in the AA1942 section, the latest version of the map is linked there.

Wow!  Such cool pieces! (Been awhile Paul)  And there’s others I’ve yet to see that are posted -
