Yup! Scale was perfect for the map…the infantry are too large to fit comfortably in Belorussia or West Russia, but they fit great in France, Italy, Africa, and China! Quality is 3.5/5 stars. Some of the infantry didn’t detach cleanly from the sprue, and the modeling is slightly chunky, but overall the pieces are durable, handsome, and clearly distinguishable.

Updated “standard” map:
Honululu, Tobruk and Dakar VC added.
Hong Kong VC replaced Shanghai.
Astrakhan VC replaced Almaty.
Gibraltar, Argentina, Peru, New Zealand, China now mountainous.(AARHE’s “standard” map is a map that keeps revised’s IPC and unit setup. The only border change is that Baltic Sea can no longer access Western Europe. Information are added to help new players.)

I found a solution to the certain symbols (like IPC icons) in our illustrator file disappearing in PDF and photoshop.
You can “fix” the symbols.
The VCP icons works. But the IPC icons don’t.
One difference. The IPC icons have text.Break link to the symbols.
I’ll post 300dpi files shortly.
And we can now use adobe reader to view the .ai files. After those changes. -
ok fine.

these links don’t work. just blank screen
-
white screen?
its probably the white border
remember its 300dpi so if your browser is not set to auto zoom out…heheoh and browers don’t tend to load TIFF
regardless, you can do right click and go Save-As
-
by the way I just realise Spain’s mountainous terrain was left out hehe
-
further small fixes
fixed: added missing Spain mountainous
fixed: added missing Turkey destroyer
change: increased battleship icon size so its easier to tell part from destroyerhttp://home.exetel.com.au/cometo/20080113_AARHE_standard_with_setup.png

Where is the text for cities? Nations? huh? is this a minimalist interpretation? Salvador Dali style?

I was thinking they won’t fit.
They’ll come in at a later stage when I decide on size problems for the special edition.If we go through with the make-pretty update to normal AARHE maps those’ll have territory and VC text.

I should have this done ( the one with the IPC icons by tomorrow)
I am working on a waterloo game and it takes up my time.
-
which map? if are you talking about the 1939 map my should talk about it in the 1939 thread
my intention was to separate them since AARHE sort of more house rule and AARHE 1939 is sort of more variant -
No the map with the icons fixed so it has the new layout. i guess thats would be 1939, but perhaps i need to fix the phase 1-2 maps as well? Can you do this? This is really getting on me as i have alot of work to finish.
Waterloo
Leipzig
Sturm Europa ( see BGG)
War for Independence -
yeah I’ll do the standard map
the 1942 Italy map I plan to remake lateryes you deal with the 1939 map
(remember to use the new layered file) -
Ok thanks. post when ready.
