I would like to add that kind of map to the game map screen, but the map would have to have a historical feel to it, like Johnfb's map here.

Unfortunately maps like that didn't exist in World War Two. Even depth information was sketchy for some parts of the world. The chart in SH4 has both KM grids and Latitude/Longitude coordinates, but it's not transferable back to SH3.

That said, I would like to see something similar, but for the coastlines: all the seacoast cities and towns, lightships, everything that is on a real nautical chart. I keep an actual KM grid chart plus several National Geographic maps on my desk, so I can log my position by land location as well as sea coordinates.
