Thank you for sending the map to my printer. I have been testing scenarios out with my A&A using my 1942 second edition. I just have been using sticky note paper to mark my Italian territories. I used the game pieces from my anniversary addition for the Italian pieces. I also added have tracks: cost is IPC 5. Attack 2, defend 2 as tanks cost 6 IPC in this version. Its nice to spend 5 IPC on an actual unit other than an AA gun. No artillery bonus on half track in this version
I also added the recruitment center from zombies.
Please see the chart below
MOBILIZATION ZONE
UNIT STATS COST MOVE ATTACK DEFENSE

ARTILLERY 4 1 2 2

ANTIAIRCRAFT ARTILLERY 5 1 0 1
RECRUITMENT CENTER 10 0 0 0
INDUSTRIAL COMPLEX 15 0 0 0

Hello Captain - any chance you might post a North Africa larger map file at some point? We really enjoy your larger maps and use many of them that we printed out for a large/single piece map. Thank you sir!
-
@Vital-Signs I’ll see what I can do but it will be awhile. There might be an additional layer of complication with that one as I am in the development credits and had to sign an NDA - but good point, let me take a look.
-
@The_Good_Captain OK - understood. Thank you Captain!
-
@The_Good_Captain Captain: We just printed a custom mat using your Fortress America map file. Outstanding!!! We also use your A&A Classic map as well. Any chance we might see your version of Shogun and Conquest of the Empire map files in the future? We would really enjoy having all (4) to complete the MB Gamemaster Series! Many Thanks to you Captain!
-
I have this for Conquest of the Empire: https://www.mediafire.com/file/1hf6u38ni6680by/cote_map.jpg/file
I don’t have Shogun. =(
-
@The_Good_Captain Many Thanks again! - This version of the conquest of the empire map does not have the $ tracker at the bottom, correct? Also, we will keep our fingers crossed for a possible shogun map in the future. That original MB gameboard gets really crowded. Thank you
-
@Vital-Signs I’m not sure about Conquest. I’ve never played either of these games - this map just happened to be on file with VASSAL. I don’t see anything for Shogun. If something changes, I’ll let you know and I’ll keep my eye out.
-
@The_Good_Captain OK understood. Yes we were hoping to get images (like Fortress America) of the Milton Bradley version of Conquest & Shogun. Thx again Captain!
-
@Vital-Signs I totally respect originality. Here is the best I can do: Most my maps are actually photos taken very carefully with a good quality camera in good lighting (I don’t know how to scan these things). If you get me a good quality photo of the map you want, I will slowly edit it for you and smooth out all the board lines and blemishes.
-
@The_Good_Captain Yes Captain! We really enjoy your photo edited maps, and we have them custom printed out for our games. They are awesome. We would love the original MB Conquest of the Empire and Shogun maps via an edited photo like your other maps. Unfortunately we dont have a high quality digital camera! Thank you for your offer to assist us!
-
@The_Good_Captain Captain: OK - one of our players has a digital camera. If we take a photo of the Shogun and Conquest of the Empire gameboards, do you have any advice for them to turn out as best as possible? I’m thinking I lay them each out (separatley of course) on a table/floor and take a picture in good lighting, yet try to avoid shadows, etc.? Thank you!
-
@Vital-Signs in my experience, you don’t want lights above the board especially if the game board is clear coated (like the board for Revised).
Standing on two chairs helps.
-
@The_Good_Captain OK understood. We will give it a shot nd get back with you. Thank you
-
@The_Good_Captain Captain - we have taken digital photos of these (2) gameboards. How can we get the files to you for your review/opinion of the images’ quality, etc.? Thank you!
-
@Vital-Signs upload each file to media fire and send me the link. or email me at ryanvoz@yahoo.com
-
@The_Good_Captain OK Great - each image looks to be around 8MB. Is email OK with this size, or do you suggest mediafire? Thank you!
-
@Vital-Signs good point. if mediafire doesn’t work, use dropbox (it’s free). In either case, just email or post the links. Mediafire is quicker and easier imo. But dropbox is fairly straight forward as well.
-
@The_Good_Captain OK - here is the mediafire link with a folder for Shogun and 5 pics that we took. What do you think of the image quality, etc.? I may be able to use a higher quality image setting on our camera if you feel it would be more ideal, etc.
