A&A 1914 Triplea

There are multiple ways to do it.
I think a paint program like Paint.NET or photoshop or something, you could create a second layer and draw the territory borders on top of it.
But the end result should look something like the attachment I added below.
It doesn’t have to be colored, but the Border lines must be pure Black.
Anti-aliasing should be turned off. In other words, it should be pixelly, (no fuzzy lines). The territory borders should be 1 pixel thick.
-
OK, I experimented a bit using Paint.NET starting with the SZ borders. The Line/Curve Utility helps a lot there.
But how accurate does it have to be? I mean the SZ borders are really easy - but the territory borders …
:? -
depends on how good you want it to look
whatever you do, try to keep the same style all the way through
-
Will it be difficult for you to program the ‘contested territory’ rules?
-
i dunno, i haven’t read the rulebook yet
but i won’t start on anything until the basetile image is finished first by someone else

…
but i won’t start on anything until the basetile image is finished first by someone elseIs the “basetile image” the result of tracing the border lines?
If yes, I will continue my work on it, unless someone more experienced throws his hat in.
But it will take me some time. Spare time is rare … -
yes
the final product should look like the attachment i added in an earlier post (it was the territory borders for ww2v3 [aa50])

It is easier than I thought. I think I will have that ready within the next few days.

Hi guys,
Not sure if this is the right place to post this but thought I’d share with you all a A&A1914 map that I made. It’s pretty much finished now so any thoughts/comments/suggestions would be welcome. Thank you! :-)

Looks very good! Are you going to enter the territory names/IPC values?
Glad someone is working on this. I’m itching to play this game more.
-
Thank you, BJCard. I think I will leave those out for now as I’m making this map in MS Paint and it’s difficult to get the words/numbers on at this 45degree angle. So I guess players would have to try and write them on themselves.
However, maybe this map could be used for TripleA or Battlemap or something, I don’t know.

I noticed and admired it too. Great work Loz.
I too would like to see it on AAA. -

Maybe it would be better if the words/numbers are not at a 45 degree angle… if the game is going to be played as a ‘square’ instead of a ‘diamond’, then just print the names horizontally.
