23X35 German Kriegsmarine Grid Map

Reinhard Hardegen · 05-24-11, 10:38 AM

I have two versions of this map, one with the Kriegsmarine flag as a back ground, and one without. Both are copies of the original Kriegsmarine grid map from WWII. At almost 2'x 3' in size these maps will make a great wall display for any Silent Hunter gamer. If any one is interested in getting one of these maps, please let me know, as I will be getting them printed in June. This map is 1 ½ times larger than the Grid map found in AOD.

I would be interested in one. - Garry

No problem, I will let you know before I print them. If you like I can customize them for you.

Hi,

I'd be interested in the maps too. I'd like to use them as a background to a chess board with a North Atlantic naval theme..

Thanks

Gavin

Making finishing touches to the map now, then I will make them public. As I stated earlyer I can customize any map to the buyers liking. These are large maps and can be framed using poster frames. Maps will be sold at cost + $5, $2.50 from each sale will be donated to Subsim.

Hi,
accidentally I read this post.
Attention, I don't know these grids maps are free of copyright...
... than you may find them on the web searching on google image "Kriegsmarine gridsmap", scanning rapidshare or in this post.

I'm a private collector of KM maps, you may see my >100 maps on www.kartengruppe.it.
On the registered area of my site you may find the links for the scan (I've uploaded on madiafire) of some original kriegsmarine nautical charts & atlas, come from my personal collection... so copyright-free

May I make a few suggestions? This is what I imagine the pieces would be...

Perhaps the HMS Hood and Repulse could be rooks, one each of the York and County class heavy cruisers as bishops, and the Town class light cruisers as knights.

As for the Germans, I would have the Deutschland class Panzerschiffen (I can't really think of any other ship designation) as rooks, the Scharnhorst class battlecruisers as bishops, and the Hipper class cruisers as knights.

Darn, I'm rambling again.

sz6nt0 · 07-04-11, 04:01 AM

Sounds a good idea. I'll have a look at the Deutschland class ships.

I had thought about the old battleships Ramillies and Royal Soverign as knights as they were slow but useful.

Here is the finished chess board. I just need advice designing the pieces - should they be on plynths ?
