Battle Academy 2 has a robust random map generator for both skirmish and that can be used in the map editor.

Re: Looking for specific app or program

That is an old map from WitP board game i believe, i got this from module vassel. So imported this on another program making things much easier to collect and move token or pieces. I think the map is dated back 1977. Few things needed to be corrected , etc.

the map is 8414 x 6666 pixels and double ...

Re: Looking for specific app or program

Well it looking good so far, just need to spend more time on how to use the program. The Pacific map is great and massive scale, surprise the program can do that.

I wanted to add more depths and trying to make more realistic as well. Such as resources, transportation, building options, etc ...

Re: Looking for specific app or program

Thank Nikel, i found something on Steam that will work, just need to buy it though. That Tabletop Simulator would be easy to use once setup. Look interesting, can create anything you can imagine in there.

Yes, you can because it is a different layer. To create the pic both layers were merged.

Too lazy to record a video and upload it to demonstrate :)


I use paint.net. It's free.

Re: Looking for specific app or program

As long you can move that pic around on the map, it cant be blend into the background.

Like a table top game (app or software) you can load your own map in the background then add/remove pieces around the map.

Been checking on Steam, kinda tricky what to look for that will work for me. There is ...

Re: Back in the Game Again

I though about getting back into this again as well, but there no way i am playing against AI while playing Japan. The AI cheats!

Idk really hard to find good players willing to stick with the house rules and not to cheat at the beginning, knowing where everything is from the start.

Re: This game even work anymore?

Not sure, may have something to do with the box version (CD) not compatible? IDK, but i uninstall that, delete everything in that folder and use that download from the Matrix site. After that, the game ran fine. Btw i didnt patch it or anything else, just checking the software out.

It is not bad ...

Eternal Zero

Interesting Japanese movie, took place from Pearl all the way to the end of the war. I couldnt understand Japanese, since there is no English subtitle there. Noticed some are very expensive and hard to get on Amazon, etc. By watching the movie on youtube, seem like a really good movie with some mix ...
