Interesting . Thanks Flashman.
Axis&Allies Express: EAST AFRICA
-
Does anyone know where to get detailed information on the campaign? Wikipedia only takes me so far.
-
I don’t know much about the campaign but I would suggest starting a new topic in the WW2 history part of the site to learn more about it! :-)

Map 1.2
-
What happened to 1.1 :wink:
nice map though what program are you using to make it? :?
-
Apple’s Paintbrush-and it works great
1.1 was a miserable failure which was never posted -
Oh I used Apple’s Paintbrush for my first map but then I downloaded Sketchbook express from the mac app store because I had a hard time downloading the paintbrush file onto the website, nice map though I am glad version 1.2 came out better than 1.1 :-) :lol:

Map 1.3 (Final?)
Spartan, I think we may be the only ones who care, but I really like these mini games. They’re fun to design and I kinda want to try Norway next. They’re both good for training, low-attention span friends, and travel
I could train my friends to play A&A like this
Basic Combat: East Africa
Economics: Winter War?
Naval/Air Combat: Greece
Adv. Combat(Put it all together): Norway
-
Sounds good I was also thinking of doing operation torch and stanlingrad I was also thinking of making a box that can store all of the maps and pieces for these express games, that way in the car or whatever all the maps could be switched out, kind of an all in one gaming system! :-)
-
Croesus, I like the map but sea zone 14 I think it is is unnecessary and makes Africa look to skinny. You might want to work on that. :-)
-
Just to be sure, you do know that that is lake Victoria, not the Atlantic, right?

The rules are tricky, but I have the setup about figured out.

Yes, but not showing at least a little land makes it look a little weird… :|
-
This game looks great! I’m a big fan of the smaller campaigns that you never hear much about. I don’t think we’ve seen enough Italians or French. I’m also a big fan of Express Game: Battle for Greece. Looks good Spartan. If you are going to make another one I suggest the Winter War. It’s an interesting period in history. Also if not that Stalingrad would have me crapping my pants. I love Russians!
-
Hey Ryan glad you like my map Winter War and Stalingrad are both on my list to do next! :-)
-
Stay back Spartan, Norway is mine
Iwo Jima and Okinawa are currently unclaimed
-
I never said I wanted Norway the next on my list is Winter war (Finland vs Russia), Operation Torch (Italy vs UK, US, France), Stalingrad (Germany vs Russia), Battle of France (France vs Germany and Italy), and Poland (Poland vs Axis), I will Iwo if you don’t want it.
-
No, I have decided that I want Iwo, Okinawa, Coral Sea, Norway, and Maybe the Aleutians, but that has weird dimensions
You get 5, I get 5, Unless SunTzu wants Coral, or Iwo, maybe even Oki -
Wow! Now I know how im goibg to spend my free time. I’d love to make one too. Any suggestions? If someone could help me to decide what tools to do it with that would be a big help. I’m thinking about a China campaign. I love land oriented battles. Its too bad you guys called the good ones. Poland and France? Cmon :oops:. All well. Throw me some ideas will ya. Also be warned my scope of skill is not high. I can only do so much. :-)
-
Ryan you can have France if you want, I would suggest using Auto desk Sketchbook, you can get the lite version off of the mac app store, other good programs include Apple Paintbrush, and Microsoft paint.
