EcoWar: Maps for viewing
« on: May 03, 2006, 12:01:09 am »

Maps are now in the Eco War Information Thread, stickied at the top of the page.

Don't panic about all the hexs being marked as econ 5.   Obviously, that is just a ruse.

Planets and bases can be seen once the game begins.......

LOL!

Sorry, Bonk.   I didn't pay attention to the size of the images, I just saved them as jpg's and figured that would be "smaller" than the bmp's that they started as.  But I didn't check to see the actual size.

I appreciate you compressing them for me.   I've replaced the jpg images in the Info thread with your png images.  Hopefull the thread will load eaiser for everyone now.

Thanks again!
