Map of Somme Area 1916

[rabu]

I just finished the Somme area map this evening and it's available for download on the Combat Ace downloads page for Over Flanders Fields (click here).

 

The original, large, paper map which is the basis of this set was lent to me by Hugh Baldwin, "Bletchley," back in October 2006. It was a project to bring some maps into the Over Flanders Fields W.W.I. flight simulation as well as supply maps for others interested in this period of W.W.I. history. The original map was badly creased, ripped and worn and being very large I had to scan it in pieces, then paste it all together accurately in Photoshop and then restore it and enhance it.

 

The main map is now divided into 6 segments, each indexed to a map segment by Number/Alphabet. Each segment overlaps so that there is no loss of detail and each segment is clearly marked in the upper right corner with it's index letter number.

 

I hope you enjoy these and they help in your flying in the WWI OFF BHH game, or in any other historically accurate WWI sim.

 

These will print out nicely on Letter size paper (8.5"x11") or larger. Use them in game to mark way points, feature mark points, flight paths, etc.

 

 

Contact me if you have any questions and let me know if they have been helpful.
