Tjoek's A&A 1914 OOB Map file (Updated February 9th 2020)

Not printed yet, but I’m intrigued with this map which was originally created by Demaris: (https://www.axisandallies.org/forums/topic/33023/azimuthal-equidistant-g40-map)
I just add more layers to custumize it.
I’m curious if this gives a good playing experience, when it is I may put some overlays in it for more playing fun.

Is this in MS Excel? If so, can you share the file?

Sorry it’s not in Excel.

@WorldWideArmy:

Hi All,

After building a custom table for my global 40 setup I was looking for other maps to use on the table.

Surprisingly I found there aren’t really any available in this size so I decided to spend a bit of time creating them from some of the great resources available.

If your looking for a copy of AA50 that fits your game table, you are in luck sir!

I’m considering building Guadalcanal next… what do you all want?

@Dafyd:

THAT IS SO COOL!  That is truly incrdible detail.Â

thanks Dafyd…this was my first post of the bombers but it screwed up, I have the other thread with the same title with more of them painted if you liked this one.

@mentok27:

Man now I wish I had some new stuff to share. But I didn’t finish any pieces  I started recently…. I did do quite a few Hungarian pieces but I was waiting till I did the Air Force as wel before I snapped a pic.

I lost a lot of time recently on the battlefield 1 beta.

No problem, you have inspired me to get back to painting. Due to health reasons, I haven’t done anything in a year, but I’m about to least, do some small jobs, here and there.

Can’t wait to see your Hungarian pieces. :-)

Cheers,

John

So very true. When I first started painting my aircraft I had to include decal roundels for the players to distinguish the pieces from one another. My naval units are painted mostly with a color scheme for playability except for the capital ships like the Carriers and popular Battleships. All of them have a decal or flag to show which nation they belong too. I actually replaced the OOB British Cruisers because I thought they looked too close in size with the destroyers. I ended up replacing with some ships I found on Shapeways. The biggest problem I had with naval units is that they can exist in the same seazone with enemy pieces unlike land territories. Because of this I decided to keep the subs, destroyers, cruisers and non unique battleships following a color scheme. There are so many colors in the spectrum though we should be able to come up with a solution that will make them look more historical yet keep the pattern or color scheme for the nation. I really would love to paint all the ships historically and maybe I will revisit them again someday. Every time I go back and repaint my pieces I seem to get better at it. Or at least I think I do, hehe.

Also, let me thank you for all the work you put into this. It is both practical and beautiful and I think it’s great work, top-notch in all aspects.

Much appreciation. I enjoyed putting those charts together. I own a WWII atlas that was actually published during the war, and which contains all sorts of interesting information about the military situation around the world, and one of the sections at the back has a recogniztion chart of Allied and Axis aircraft, depicted as black silhouettes. It’s a neat feature, and it was the main inspiration for the A&A unit chart project
