A post just for Mark. We discussed making campaign maps on Saturday during our 18C POW game. I remembered seeing something on this subject but couldn't remember where.
Luckily I stumbled across it again on the Napoleonic Wargaming blog (link below)
http://napoleonicwargaming.blogspot.com/2011/01/campaign-and-wargame-maps.htmlHe's used an AA Europe atlas and ProFantasy to create a stylistic campaign map of Germany (ideal for some of the stuff we're planning for 2011). A lot of work and effort but a great end product.

| Grand strategic map of Europe |
 |
| Germany - strategic map |
 |
| Simplified strategic map - North Germany |
 |
| Tactical map of the North Germany (as used by the players) |
 |
| The white square deotes the territory being fought over in a campaign game... |
 |
| ...and how that square is then represented on the wargames table. |
I need to see if the same can be done for Portugal and Spain.
