I like the setup information for Axis and Allies Global Second Edition 1939 and was wondering if there is a setup for the global game for 1936 which include the Italian - Ethiopian conflict, or if there is global setup starting in 1937 which would primarily include China and Japan?
Original 1914 A&A map upsized?

Does anybody know if the original 1914 game map has been made into a downloadable file? Thanks in advance.

@Imperious-Leader Right and a big thanks! I downloaded your file recently after seeing it on several YouTube channels. Nice work indeed. I am in the process of getting a printed map. But I am also wondering if the WOTC box version, even with its flaws, has been made into a downloadable file.

I’m working on a map file for 1914 based on the original boxed map. Just like my 1940 and Anniversary map files. I just didn’t open create a thread on the forums yet, but I’ve come a long way in stitching together the different individual scans and cleaning up the map folds and creases.
Might take a few more months before it’s finished as time is very limited at the moment.

@Tjoek This sounds great indeed. I will be interested in your progress and look forward to seeing the future map. I like the boxed map but it sure is aggravating to play on.

Great news! If you need a scan of the map, I could help you. It is just a little stretched at one side maybe worth to look at it because I asume youve got the skills to fix it. I always wanted an oob map of A&A 1914.

Thanks for offering your help, but I already scanned the board almost a year ago.
So far I’ve stitched together the different scans and removed the folds and creases in and between the boards. Also I’ve retouched all the scratches and small dust particles in the scans.
I’ve also replaced the Sahara with similar artwork but without all the IPC tracking and unit costs etc. I simply dislike my maps to be too busy. But that will be an optional download, I’ll provide both versions.
At the moment I’m working on re aligning some of the territory names and roundels. After that I will enhance the colours and replace the roundels with high quality versions to prevent any scanning noise to be visible their on the final map.
I should start a new tread…

@Tjoek Cleaning up the impassable Sahara is definitely needed. Can’t wait to see your work!

I’ve created a separate thread for my work on the OOB 1914 map. Please go here to discuss it in more detail.
