Why Matrix can’t print WitP Map posters and sell them separately from the game? Additional money for Matrix and no need for WitP players to torture their printers.


From what I was told they are going to.

That’s great! I hope the scale will be appropriate.

Wouldn't fit in my house, but perhaps I could remodel the garden

Gen Melchett: Look, this is the amount of land we've recaptured since yesterday.

Lt George: Oh, excellent.

Gen Melchett: Erm, what is the actual scale of this map, Darling?

Cpt Darling: Erm, one-to-one, Sir.

Gen Melchett: Come again?

Cpt Darling: Er, the map is actually life-size, Sir. It's superbly detailed. Look, look, there's a little worm.

Gen Melchett: Oh, yes. So the actual amount of land retaken is?

Cpt Darling: Seventeen square feet, Sir.

Gen Melchett: Excellent. So you see, young Blackadder didn't die horribly in vain after all.

Status: offline 		Much more than I love this map. I still can't believe that after a couple years of work
they couldn't have come up with a projection that didn't distort distances (Like making
Singapore 100+ miles closer to Saigon than in the real world) and include so much
"waste space" (Take a look at the SE Pacific and the Arctic---two places very unlikely
to see any usage). It's very pretty, but could be a whole lot more useful.
