WIP Italy-Austria-Crotia Map

Hey all - I'm working on a new map for the Community Project in the DC: Case Blue scale. It's Northern Italy, Croatia, and parts of Austria so far - I intend to extend the map north and east at least as far as Vienna. It's not anywhere near done yet but here's a WIP shot:

I plan on using this map to model alternate history scenarios (Italy vs Yugoslavia; Italy vs Germany in Austria w/ an Austrian civil war; maybe something entirely ahistorical).

Looks nice :) I hope you make a few good scenarios with it :)

Thanks! I plan to. As of right now I've halted for research - most of the main rail lines are done, now I need to make sure I'm getting the finer details correct.

Mostly I'm just looking for good research maps of Italy, Yugoslavia, Austria, and (secondarily) Germany and Hungary for the time period.

I'm looking in particular for land use maps (like this one, but accurate for 1940: http://www.italy-map.info/italy-map/italy-land-use-map ) so I can determine which hexes should have heavy forest vs pasture, plains, etc.
