E3 Mod & E3 Map thread

[unmerged(81141)]

Thank you Fernando. As I have not created any counter, I can send you all existing flags, and you can design counters, if you wish. But we must first define all countries.

mumia, we will find something for Caribbean islands.

Have you made any progress? Have you seen my proposal for Africa?

 

[Fernando Torres]

Sure. I can also define your colorscale if you wish.
I have made those one : http://forum.jeux-strategie.com/index.php?showtopic=57664&view=findpost&p=1052333324 for WiF Platinum Edition so if you like them...
Just send me an email when you need me for something.

You mean Morocco? Yes, I've seen it, but I have much less time to add it to the map. I plan first to finish European map.

Where do you need add all new countries? Any chance to add some in Germany, France or Russia? I mean potential German puppet states in France and Russia and regional states in Germany (Hannover, Saxony, Bavaria, Schlesvig-Holstein, Meckleburg...).

Sure. I can also define your colorscale if you wish.

Which colour has Poland? Still that light yellow? If yes, could it be to make Polish colour more red (light red, not too pink please ), something like in EU3?

 

[unmerged(81141)]

I will look those, Fernando.

mumia, I mant have you ade any progress with any map, Europe, Near East, Africa, etc.

I proposal for Africa was... could you draw outline of African continent, and borders of colonies, Liberia, South African Union, Etiopia, etc. along with surrounding islands, Soa Tome and Principe, Madeira, Spanish islands, Cape Verde, etc. But not imediately, when you have time, and later we will define provinces...

We need states to fill free colonial provinces, like islands East of Africa, Pacific islands, etc.

Pastel light yellow.
But i can define you a light red if you wish.

It's stupid question, but when the mod will be ready for download?

 

[mumia]

Some progress with map is done, I found these all 111 free IDs And I found transcriptions of Georgian and Armenian alphabets so in Armenia we will have provinces Erewan and Step’anakert and in Georgia Soxumi province.

For Indian Ocean islands and Pacific islands you could just make them part of federative countries, same as Carribean islands.

It's stupid question, but when the mod will be ready for download?

New map (of Europe) should be ready in first half of 2009, then all events, revolt file should be changed... so it will be ready in future.

 

[unmerged(81141)]

Yes, and about African map I mentioned in previous post?

Estland. I do not know. But I am not optimistic that it will be released in 2008.

Tomorrow is the first day when I'll have really no time to draw anything so I'll draw it in September or October...

 

[unmerged(81141)]

All right. And one more question. Have you possibly drawn Israel, Lebanon and Syria?

 

[mumia]

When I'll draw Africa I'll have to draw some Middle East countries to make good connection between Europe-Asia-Africa.
If you have ideas when to add provinces in Europe (mostly western Europe) you can post them and i'll see what can I do (they'll be added to my top secret list <hyhyhy>) as I think UK or France need 1 or 2 more provinces.

 

[ROMANU]

you mentioned german puppet states in france and russia
in frace: no idea, l'etat francais (AKA vichy frace)
in russia: I think a total ocupation would be most likly if hitler/SS/extremists are in charge
and the creation of a severly punished russian state (creation af Turkestan, Ukraine, Siberia, loss of territory to baltic states finland, etc, german enclaves in crimea, Arhangelsk, St. Petersburg, Rostok...

it may be also an unlikly possibility of creating small puppet states (Moskau , St. Petersburg, Kuban etc... maybe a german colonisation state in crimea,

Well, I tried to invent something semi-original using CorelDRAW for Union of Yugoslavia and Greece:

Maybe I'm not competent to say anything about Greek-Yugoslavian history but why this flag includes 3 french fleur-de-lis? And maybe you could make something simplier. You know, in vexicology all elements of flag mean something so maybe it should contain some concrete Greek and yugoslavian symbols like 2-headed eagles, Serbian or Greek crosses.

 

[unmerged(81141)]

Actually, mumia, this flag is culturarly and as you say, vexicologically, completely correct.

The background of the flag is HoI timeframe Greek flag (vanilla flag is modern). While blue tone is imported from Yugolsav flag, along with red colour, to represent panslavic colours. Leaf motive in the central cross represents common Balkan traditional ethno pattern, present on traditional outfits (similar to pattern on flag of Belarus). As you can see, two red strips are tied in the middle of the cross, which represent strong connection between two nations. And finally, three fleur-de-lys symbols, represent Balkan lilies (Lilivm carniolicvm) present on CoA of Serbia and former CoA of Bosnia and Herzegovina, also modern symbol of muslim inhabitants of Bosnia and Herzegovina. If you look at SER/YUG CoA, you will notice same lilie symbol as French.

This flag seems more as a french genoa flag. What about with the Greek corss with the Yugoslavian backround colors?

 

[stonecold316]

I understand you drew the provinces but where did you find these blank maps of Europe? Or did you draw everything by hand?

Great work btw!!!!

 

[Sgt. Optimus]

Well, the flag looks great, but I don't dig those fleur-de-lys. I think double-headed eagle should somehow fit into the flag.

Maybe an eagle with combination of Greek and Yugoslav CoA's on his chest surrounded by two laurel branches, like these for example: http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/7/7c/Coat_of_arms_of_Greece.svg/514px-Coat_of_arms_of_Greece.svg.png .

 

[unmerged(81141)]

Observe the part of CoA bellow eagles:

Same fleur-de-lys.

Delex. "Greek cross" is Orthodox cross. I do not think it is wise to put it on the flag, as half of Yugoslav population is not Orthodox.

stonecold316. Mumia had drawn everything.

EDIT: Second atempt, but I prefer the first one:

 

[Sgt. Optimus]

That's better, but still, It just doesn't do it for me

I'll give it a shot, wait!
