      Axis & Allies Express: EAST AFRICA
      There were talks of making an Axis and Allies Travel-Friendly Game, and that forum became mostly about Axis & Allies Express: Greece, so I present to you my preliminary VERY rough map of the same Idea with the East African Campaign

      Note: This game was started today, and is still a work in progress, only the map is started

      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

      Probably already been asked, but do you have a price range for this puppy?

      While that trick is legitimately awesome, and will be used someday. I refer to the distortion that Larry gets. The island of Java would never be the size it is in game, nor would any territory in all of Europe. How does he get a general shape, and then distort it to work?

    • RE: Game Design

      While this sounds great, the game is intended to have a design reminiscent of Diplomacy, so many players are required. I guess I’ll just have to pay people to play

    • Game Design

      Hello all, I’m trying to design a game, likely to be highly complex. I was hoping someone might help explain several features of the process.

      1. Mapmaking-How do you draw maps? I have, in the past used blank maps from the internet, and then used paintbrush to edit them into the shapes I like.  However, these never have the level of resolution I feel necessary, and working with that resolution slows my computer heavily. Second, the colors feel wrong, and my game has a majority neutral territories starting out, and I feel like a map with huge amounts of white is an automatic turnoff. How do you all deal with neutral coloration?

      2. Rules - How do you get the diagrams, and pictures found in A&A. Obviously a one-off printing won’t have that kind of quality, but how can it be emulated? How do you ensure you have covered everything?

      3. Units - I’ll probably just use units from other games, but how do you design them. I’m good at designing rules and maps, but I’m no artist.

      4. Playtesting - If you’re lucky to get in, say, 1 game in three months of A&A, how do you test a game? It’s not that I don’t have time, just no one to play against.

      How expensive is that?

    • Mapmaking

      Lots of people make map files. This is all well and good, but how do I use them? I use high-quality paper, but I’m pretty sure my computer doesn’t take quarter inch thick cardboard? So if I were making a 1400s Imperialism themed game, I still can’t get the map, never mind the units.

      They can’t spell, nor do they seem to know the release date correctly, but: http://www.amazon.com/Axis-Allies-1914-World-Baord/dp/B00B0EMNB4/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1362579191&sr=8-1&keywords=axis+and+allies+1914

      Seazone 13 to seazone 16a: You think he’ll give us a symbol too?
      Seazone 16a: Shhh… I’m already designated as “a”. What the hell does that mean? When will it end
      Seazone 16b: Calm down guys, Larry will save us
