Contrary to what has been suggested about downloading the 11x17 maps. Then taking them to Kinkos for print. After taking my disc to Kinkos, making 2 trips, and a phone call. They will not copy them even with the disclaimer on the map.

Office Max did mine no problem. In fact they look great. Me and a friend actually like the copied ones better than the originals.

Kinkos here did mine no problem and no questions asked from my memory stick.

I had the Easy maps printed at a Staples no problem. I also took my Squad Leader maps to Kinkos and copied them myself, blowing them up 250% in color. Cost me $50, but it's the equivelent of 20 full-size maps.

Hey, that squad leader map enlargement sounds like a great idea. How did they turn out? Could you post some pictures of them because I'd be very interested in seeing them and if they turned out good getting them done that way myself. Did the hexes turn out to be the right size? Thanks,

I was luckily enough to have plotter at work. So I printed out all ten maps. The paper is glossy and a thicker then the paper that the maps from the starter kit come with. And more importantly no creases. I'm going to mount them on some matte board so they'll be sturdier.

Maybe it's because most of California dislikes all things Military.

Our KINKOS just has a CYA sign up, telling you if you get caught conterfeiting or infringing CopyWrong, it's Your Rear not Theirs.

what part of your body did you pull that info about Calif. out of?

I've been printing my own squad leader and the new A&AM maps on my scanner/printer. I'm going broke buying ink cartriges. I finally decided to take copy the new A&AM map filies to a disc and take them to the local print shop but I noticed that the full sized maps are supposed to be printed on 11" X 17" paper but the original A&AM maps only measure 10 1/2" X 16". Does the difference account for the border?

By the way. I love playing this game on squad leader maps. It gives it a whole new dimension.

check around for a small printer as they offen will print stuff for you. I have all my original maps on foamcore and am finishing the mounting of the new maps.

I've been printing the smaller maps out on #110 card stock and then gluing them to form core board and they work fine. I also took two sets of the original maps and glued them to foam coreboard and they all line up nicely.

I am considering blowing up my Panzer Leader boards. And then I would have to blow up the Panzer Blitz and Arab-Israeli Wars boards. Then there are the Assault maps...

I also looked at the Panzer Leader and Panzer Blitz boards, I felt the SL boards worked better, though they are relatively crowded with terrain.

I guess if I wanted desert, I could blow up my Campaign for North Africa maps...
