I am creating my own AAX (Axis and allies express) based on the battle of El Alamein

I have the starting locations


But am wondering whether or not to make it a hexagonal game like BotB or a territory game.

Ideas would be useful

Hey Fox the pic does not load but you should really stager the amount of units a division represents by actual strength.

Lots of faked footage but a good source of inspiration:

No from the research I have done there appeared to be no reinforcements in the battle. However there will be air support. There will also be supply rules for advanced players.

Maybe but I will probably play test it and give the Axis specific victory conditions. Also remember the devils gardens because there will be specific rules which slow the allied advance and so the Germans/Italians should be able to take advantage of this

Map v1.1

Good job Fox... This is really cool. But is there a reason for the division markers? Is that part of the setup, or...?

Thanks the Territory lines need to be edited so they look nicer. The divisions are there because that is where they initially started and the initial map I got of the net has them on it.

BTW here is the link for the thread about ABattlemap
http://www.axisandallies.org/forums/index.php?topic=12873.0
Also if you want to get the G40 map go to the G40 forum and go into the thread Func's G40 module
