Fair enough! And thanks very much for the writeup. If anyone tries this again, consider adding:
2 German subs in SZ 10 (Greenland)
2 German subs in SZ 12 (west of Morocco)
1 Japanese carrier with 1 Japanese fighter in SZ 62 (east of Tokyo)
We printet out the map at 118" X 60" on a expanded polystyrene plate
and build a table with drawers for the miniatures around the map :-D
we took the big miniatures from A&A for more details and now the game
is perfect.
We all want to say THANK YOU for your amazing map Imperious Leader.
Here i have some pics for you:

Wow!!!
That is huge. I thought my 48"x 96" was big but……
I have map envy! :|
I few comments:
I see on the wall you printed my Great War map and the expansion map for Africa.
Have to played a game and also what version of the rules did you use? We are at like 12.0
Also, the map you printed on the table is not really AARHE, but can i assume you are using the map along with the rules for AARHE 4.0?

Because of the good quality of the map from Imperious Leader we could
realise the size of this great map. We wait wishfully for the global map 1940
(AAP & AAE)
@Imperious Leader
Yes the great war map is awesome too but we played it only a few times with
rules 9.0. did you have any link with the new rules pls? this forum is a little wired
for us german krauts :-D
You’re right this is the wrong post because i didnt find your original AA50 map post,
we play this map with the original rules from the aniversary edition and some other
inventions.

WOW Streifenkarl, that is just AWESOME!!
How did you print that map so big (or where did you do that) and what did it cost?
Also, where did you get that miniatures from?
Thanks,
Star
@ Imperious Leader
thank you for the link, we try to play it with those rules because atm we play only
the global map 1940.
we printed the map by a online poster-print-shop like posterjack.com (Germany)
and costs 250euros, the whole project (map, table, miniatures, special A&A Dice
and some other little stuff) costs much more than 1500 euros.
The miniatures are from the whole world, we’ve buy’d a lot in US ebay, from Japan
and some shops like http://www.tabletop-store.com/kat/Axis-&-Allies-Miniatures-C1283.html,
the problem is to find the smaler miniatures from the different countrie’s, primary the most tanks are too
big for the map wo we bought first some Booster Packs and Starter Packs to see the dimensions from
the miniatures.
Next problem is to find the transport ships of all the different countrie’s, these are very rare also all german
miniatures, these are the favorite ones for you american guys :-D
What does this mean?
“play it with those rules because atm”

Thanks for the quick reply Streifenkarl!
So you use miniatures from the starter/booster packs and the rest you find on ebay, is that correct?
And I’m from Die Niederlande by the way ;)
