Don´t worry. It is "print on demand" provided by CafePress. So unless they don´t run out of paper you´re pretty safe [;)]

I WANT HEX SIDE DETAILS, DANGIT!!!....[:D]

Woo hoo!

On order already [:)]

Once it gets here, I hand Kinkos another $10 for lamination and I'll be set for the winter [:D]

[kaleun]

I'll get two, as soon as I get back from vacation.

hello k, are you taking your laptop on vacation?

Ordered mine too.. once it arrives it will have to be laminated so I can draw all sorts of impressive looking arrows all over it.

I'm not sure about playing myself in a hotseat game (as has been mentioned in another topic - I did too much of that with boardgames 20 years ago!) But I reckon I'll have to play out at least 4 different war planners arguing over the map..

'We must attack here *draws big arrow on map* and then cut them off here! *different colour arrow* Then, other me 'No, we must strike along this island chain *bigger arrow* and hit them where it hurts!!' *hastily draws circle on some island*

This'll be the final straw for my poor girlfriend!

LOL! Especially if you guys play the Japanese side and accurately simulate the IJA-IJN rivalry .

I ordered a copy of the hex map. Now I have to figure out how to display it without my wife noticing it. She is not big on me buying new games, but a Digital Download is relatively easy to add to my collecting with out all the incriminating CD's, boxes, manuas and everything. A 3 foot map is a little more noticible

Now the next big decision....

With hexes or without?

[Brady]

Excelent! I was hoping to be able to order this:)

[Tankerace]

I'd order one, but since they can't even get a cd to me I'm kinda hesitant.

Digital River and Cafepress are two different companies. When I last ordered from Cafepress they shipped all the stuff to GErmany within 3 days.

Do you have a better picture of each? I want to see how invasive the hexes are on the map. The pictures on the web site are too small to make out any details. I realize you are doing that somewhat to keep people from printing out their own, but a little more detail will help me decide which to get.

Thank you.

My hex map shipped this morning! [:)]

I'll let y'all know in a few days...

There is a hex map out there on Spooky's site. I believe it's the real deal, so you can take a look at it Stil..

Marc,

Know what I'd like to see? Same map with the ocean hexes a very light blue. This would allow us to laminate and write on the map, making notes more visible.

Just a thought.
