Status: offline 		I have seen a few requests for screenshots of various parts of the AE map in the AAR threads and elsewhere. To help out with the workload of the guys doing the AARs, I will provide screenshots if anyone wants to see a particular part of the AE map in this thread. Please let me know what you want to see.

BTW: Thanks, Andrew... you've done so much to improve this game I'll never be able to thank you enough!

There is no way to put all of India in one in-game screenshot. Aden is represented as an "off map" area as shown in this screenshot. What part of India did you want to see?

Some of the frontier is shown in a previous screenshot, but here is some more. Does that cover it?

I have to do some serious compression to get these files below the upload size limit (200kb), especially when there is a lot of land, like in this image.

Yes they are. There are two types of urban hex in AE - light urban and heavy urban, which provide defence multipliers of x2 and x4 respectively. Heavy urban is equivalent to the current urban hex in stock.

Whether a hex is light or heavy urban depends on its population level. Batavia and Soerabaja are light urban hexes.

Here is a map of that area. There are some more bases in Northern Australia compared to stock.

Australia will be malaria free, just as it is in my original map variant. Apart from that the malarial areas are about the same.

It might be a good idea to post a screenshot of the terrain keys for further reference.

Status: offline 		The 'dots' for dot bases are extremely hard to make out (especially in the PNG/Solomon's shot you posted earlier).

Is this due to the conpression of these screenies? I assume it's better in the game?

Status: offline 		I'd be curious to see the expanse of water between, say, Wake and Midway, or Tarawa and Baker Island. Does it even fit on one screen now?

Also, is there any chance you could show us a small section of varied terrain -- perhaps of the Canberra area or Seattle -- without compression? E.g., just show us a few hexes at full resolution. I'm especially interested in seeing the gorgeous new mountains and farmland and urban hexes with an uncompressed view, even if it were just 3x3 hexes. For that matter, those interested in "dots" might be interested in seeing, say, Lunga at full resolution.

But they are still pretty good screen shots of a non-existant game.

Status: offline 		Fantastic map! 

I noticed both railroad and regular roads in same hex.  Is this for tactical and strategic modes of travel?  or Is it possible to damage the road/railroad networks?

Also any chance of seeing a screen shot of the Philippines?

Thanks
