I would love to see the map, but cannot open the file. Do you have it also downloadable as pdf or bitmap?

@Tjoek I am also very curious about your AAZ map project did you start already?

@Tjoek outstanding work!! Many thanks for releasing the map file. I have waited for this to happen since 2013 :-D

It will take some time but I promise to share pictures of the printed map . Again, thank you very much Tjoek!

@Tjoek definitly the dark one

@Tjoek Since I use my own houserules with more historical USW zones, I dont really need the icons on the map. But I am interested in how they look for sure. Maybe you´ll have one strict oob map and another one with some upgrades… Can´t wait for the next update!!

@Tjoek :+1:

@Tjoek said in Tjoek's A&A 1914 OOB Map file:

Boost colors to be more vibrant as the scans are a bit dull

I am very curious how this will finally look like. We always loved the colors of the oob 1914 map.

@Chacmool Until now I used this custom map to play OOB A&A14 (I only enlarged Western Europe esp. Ruhr/Elsaß/Switzerland/Piedmont, you can see that Gibraltar moved a little bit westwards)

@Tjoek Wow, thats a fantastic work! It would be very nice of you if you share the final map with the oob harbors and the Mobilization Zone.

I think AAZ has the perfect scale and size for playing a fast game of classic A&A (without Zombies). Its bigger than AA41 and smaller than AA42. Also the graphic style is, together with AA14, my personal favourite of the whole franchise. Is there a mapfile available to print this one a little bit larger? thanks a lot and happy new year to you all!

@Tjoek

Great news! If you need a scan of the map, I could help you. It is just a little stretched at one side maybe worth to look at it because I asume youve got the skills to fix it. I always wanted an oob map of A&A 1914.

@The:

I think one way to limit the power of a mono stack arty, or any mono stack is to have the black(wild) and or the white(damaged) sides of the d12 only be used by a combined arms force.

Your suggestion seems more elegant to me than changing dice colours during battles. In fact I don`t like the new force advantage rule at all.

To weaken monostacks the blacks and whites should count as fails if thrown by them, or even better blacks and whites cancel hits against the enemy, this would represent the lack of support by other arms.

IL do you consider creating a war room global map like for the other A&A titles?

@Imperious:

Yea this year, looks like Christmas

Would be nice!

Just ordered one signature edition. This will be a long year of waiting  :lol:

the changed setup for marseille seems like a big thread for the ottomans, an amphibious attack on constantinople with these 3 inf and 1 art (together with the strong french med navy) followed by an british reinforcement could end mehmeds holy war in round 1.

Great version! Portuguese East Africa has the wrong colour since its french alligned. Albania should have the colours of Italy not Russia.

Will the ottomans be just red/orange germans or do they get their own sculpture like in AA14?

@Imperious:

Yes you can do that, but for sale its gonna be 5 feet tall x 3.5 feet

Is this game still alive? Because I followed this thread for years and it was nearly finished in 2013.
Hard to believe that I will ever hold this little plastic soldiers in my hand though I want to buy this game so badly, twice… Would putting the project on kickstarter do any help?
