      Been working on a modified version of Axis & Allies: 1914.

      How would you draw the new territories?

        Search for
        equirectangular projection of earth svg free
        or europe

        Load the one you like into Inkscape as its vector you can scale any part of it easily.

        Each TT/SZ and should be able hold 9ish 54px high units at 100% zoom.

        Im not a map drawer.
        But I would divide Spain, Norway, Sweden & Finland, they are all hard going terrains.

          @Schulz For Turkey the Trans-Jordan territory in the original never made sense to me, I would divide it up into at least Syria and Hejaz territories. Also I think Egypt would do better with Sinai split off.

          If you’re looking for names for territories also you can look up maps and name them after cities/major battle sites in that region. This is basically required for countries like Russia that have huge provinces

            @TheDog Also adding territoryEffects to the map can simulate this further, like mountain territories in Northern Italy/Caucasus. Maybe only a mountaineer unit can have good combat and don’t get debuffs

              I'm not sure what the best way to split the Ottoman territories is.

              Constantinopolis will obviously have both a factory and a dockyard. I'm also thinking about giving both Damascus and Baghdad a factory as well. Splitting Sinai would make defending Suez way too easy, I guess. I would put a few Ottoman infantry units in the Libyan Desert as well to represent the Senussis and make things more interesting.

              Arabia could be better off being impassable.

                The only reason I suggested splitting off Sinai is more to give the Ottomans a bit of early expansion; don't know if that would make Egypt too easy to defend. I like the idea of adding the Senussi front, most people don't know about that and you don't see it in many maps. I agree that central Arabia should be impassable. Though, I wouldn't give the Ottomans too many factories as they were pretty unindustrialized.
