Maps of Italy

[Geography Dan]

Does anyone know where I can find a good, detailed map of Italy wihtout any extraneous ares (Greece, Balkans, France, Spain, etc.)

Yes, of course: Mercator's map of Italy. You can find it at his HP (called "Fantastic Worlds", go find it at the links section). It has been used in the scenario "Up the deadly Boot" by John Petroski and my "3d Punic War" scenario.

I've got one I drew a while ago for my 'Unification of Italy' scenario. I'll send it over.

Hey GD, aol says your not accepting any embedded "attached" files. You wanna fix your preferences so I can send the map.
Thanks.

[Geography Dan]

Sorry, I can't change it. Parental controls.

I saw Mercator's map. Is there one that does not show the Balkans, and that shows more detail in Italy?

My map is of Italy only.
It's too bad I can't send it...
Can't you get your parents to change the prefs.

[Geography Dan]

nope, sorry.
perhaps you could put it on a website for dowmload or e-mail it to someone else who could put it on a website for download. Then again, that would be a lot of trouble just for one map. Perhaps I can use Mercator's map and just block off the Balkans.

There are some other maps of Italy, which can be found in my map database:
http://civ2.sidgames.com/database/maps/index/euro.cfm

None of them can beat mine in accuracy, of course

[WarVoid]

OK, I sent my map to Stefan.
I hope it's good enough...

[Geography Dan]

AAAACK!
Stefan, I can't access your site because of parental controls! It says "Web Restricted" when I try to go to it!

Very much with the same problem, I couldn't find an image some time back of Italy without encompassing too much of the surrounding turf.

I put together an unfinished map;



which can be downloaded from http://www.ozemail.com.au/~aswe1/IT-CH2.zip . It contains a 'read me' that notes the Arctic terrain used as a deterrant from city site locations - this to be dealt with visually in Terrain1.gif.

(It was to be used in an Italian Medieval scenario, but I never got more than about one-third of the way through designing. I'm not the first though to bow out of a scenario's creation in midstream)

Mercator, may I upload your Italian map and the map you made for "Pharaoh"? I'd like to offer all the maps I used for my scenarios.
