Printable maps?

Post by glennsweet »

.... just wondering if there are "printable maps" of those maps used in the game? There are references in the "orders" menu to locations on the classic 1858 map that are not recorded (C.Snyders farm... south of town).

The original map can be obtained from the Library of Congress website.

http://lcweb2.loc.gov/ammem/gmdquery.html

Enter 'Adams County 1858' in the search box, click and select item #5. You can download it and edit it to suit yourself.

Thank you Jim. Very useful, especially for those of us from overseas who have never been there.

I hope it might be possible to have a zoomable in-game map (or even just a full-screen fixed one)at some point. While the armies suffered from questionable maps and intelligence, at least they didn't have to visualize the battle via a mess of overlapping icons on a field the size of a postcard.
