@Azimuth yeah, I understand the challenge, I’m a graphic designer and I was playing around with a circular map design when I stumbled upon yours. I still might finish my design as I was incorporating some map changes I found interesting. But so far I think I’ll need some blow up boxes or something to make it work at a reasonable size.
My First Custom Map
-
This is my first custom map, and I know it’s not the best. The seazone numbers are the same as G40, and the map is designed for the years 1936-1944
For gameplay on the map, here’s some features I added:
I removed the infantry and production from the neutral Latin America countries, as I didn’t find it necessary.
I plan on working on a diplomacy system in the game, plus historical events, such as anschluss.
When playing a 1936 game, the only ongoing war is the Second Italo-Ethiopian war. Ethiopia can be managed by an allied country. Also, the Rhineland is demilitarized. There’s also a occupation system (similar to that of hoi4) where if you decide to have gently occupy territories, you get 1 less production from the territories, but there’s a lower chance of rebels. You can normally occupy territories, in which there’s no downside or upside. If you decide to harshly occupy a territory, you get 1 extra production from the territory, but there’s a higher chance of rebels.
I plan on making a better map, but I don’t have the money for photoshop. (I used paint.net to make this.)
I will post updates as I work on it.

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

Nice work @ari236

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