Does Matrix have a plan to sell, or include with the cd, a large map ?

There was a .PDF map that came with UV. I imagine there would also be a similar one with WitP, and that you could print it off just as easily.

Two maps, one pretty one, and a plastified one, to draw on with different colored markers.
Yeah [X(]Lots of different colored markers! Yeah!. Drool drool.
(The wait is getting to me, I guess)

Print out the map, glue it to foam board, buy a card table, Plexiglas, and grease pencils and your good to go.

I plan on buying the map Matrix puts out (provided its released same time as the game - otherwise they probably shouldn't bother) and laminating it. Then I can draw on it with markers and such and just wash it clean. I work at a copy center and will be laminating it myself so it works perfectly [:)]

In UV, the map fitted neatly onto a A4 size page.
I tried to print it onto A3 size ( computer paper). But the text was fuzzy at that size.
WITP covers such a large area that a map at A4 size will not be useful.

The map is a series of 1500x1500 sections. Printing it out will not really help you as the locations are not *on* the map artwork itself.

I asked Joel about printing off some maps and selling them, he siad that it is something that they will look at but are not promising anything. I guess that it is a simply question of market forces....if enough people ask then there is a greater chance of it happening.

I'm thinking of painting the map on the wall of billiard/game room and hiring a Dana Wynter look alike to move the little flags around
