Never a prob here either. Always fast. And I like the "Out of the Wrapper" thread there showing the contents of the BoH box very much. Wish every board game company did that. From that thread, it doesn't look like the maps are truly geomorphic given the dirt roads and paved roads not tapering off at the board edges. The maps are noticeably smaller in hex count than those for ASL (13 vs 34 IIRC) meaning that two BoH maps side by side length-wise would basically span the length of 1 ASL map. So 2 BoH maps with dirt roads and 2 with bitumen kinda makes some sense. However, as with say, the Platoon level Panzer Grenadier Series having smaller mounted maps than its older rival Panzer Blitz, the smaller maps of BoH do create some goemorphic oddities. PG is ripe with them in its Bulge game resulting in some very ugly map combinations and impossiblities. With BoH, the house on Map 16 sitting where a player may want to DYO a width-width road net and the dead end road on map 14 create some issues. Then again, we are living in the days of scanners, so making an posting map overlays should be an easy solution. Adam.
