Europe
Work
is going well on combining my existing campaign maps with the Murat series of
wargame maps. The aim is to have a series
of five maps for each campaign phase, all of which will be based on the same
information.
The
five maps will be
Map
One - Europe with each grid square being a campaign area
Map
Two - Germany or Spain with each square being one days march
Map
Three - Campaign area similar to map two but with more detail
Map
Four – Campaign phase area showing all terrain detail
Map
Five – Wargame map to transfer battles from campaign to wargames table
Spain
This
is a combination of my original map of Spain and the Murat map of Portugal and
Spain. The grid is my original one and
each square is one days march. The towns
are those shown on Murat. Note that
quite a few squares are not named.
North Spain
This
is the campaign area for the Wellington v Soult part of the 1813 campaign. All squares now have a named town. The larger cities are each a campaign
phase. However some compromise will be
required because they are not evenly spaced as they were on my original map.
The
next stage is to produce a strategic map for the next phase of the campaign in
Northern Spain. This will be show a
section of North Spain, but with more detail
The
final stage will be to produce a wargames map.
This will have a grid which shows the exact terrain which will be used
on the wargames table.
