hi hunters

i am looking for a large world map poster with the grid references on it that the u-boats use. does any one know of one or where to get one from?

cheers

Ideally one with the official convoy routes on it,as indicated by the actual UBoat captains themselves?,would be handy indeed.You could then print it off and have it pinned to your wall near your gaming table

Do a search on google,you are bound to find something on there.As for me knowing of any,afraid not.
Google is your friend!

http://uboat.net/ is a good site,maybe they have something?

many thanks Paul Riley

what im after is a poster for my wall - large'ish, a print as a piece of art work. i think the maps themselves are quite beautiful with all the different colours.

its come about because i am reading operation drumbeat and i am following Reinhard Hardigens progress by grid reference. would love to be able to pin point his journey as he crosses over and starts his attack; it is a terriffic read

and a big print with all the grid references on would just look super framed in glass.

cheers

I taped my SH3 game map to the wall

...think the correct name for this map is

Kriegsmarine Marinequadratkarte

..would love to have a poster size replica of it framed in glass

cheers!
