Looking for a map(s) for kreigspiel. Please help.

The only ones I know of that are specifically for Kriegspiel are by Too Fat Lardies, available here: https://toofatlardies.co.uk/product-category/kriegsspiel/ (https://toofatlardies.co.uk/product-category/kriegsspiel/)
I’m not sure what would be the most feasible way to print them, probably a print shop that can handle large formats.

I keep an eye out for maps at charity shops.
I've managed to pick up some useful ones over the years,
and they are cheap.

P.M. Thank you I did eventually find these, but a 44 sheet map that has to be taped together, does not seem the way to go.
has.been Thank you also, I did acquire a few bicycling maps while in England years ago that might work well. and I do have a large collection of maps but the scale is too small, the best being1:25,000. I am hoping for something close to 1:10,000 or bigger.

I recently ordered a map of Waterloo from https://fineartamerica.com/featured/map-of-the-battle-of-waterloo-alexander-keith-johnston.html?product=tapestry-88-104
i ordered the largest size they do which was 88x104 inches and works out to be a scale of 3463:1 so you may find one of the smaller versions will fit for a kriegspiel they also have maps available for other battlefields

I had Kreigspeil several years ago, since sold it. I recall though that it came with large maps designed to be played on.

https://maps.arcanum.com/en/ (formerly Mapire) have tons of maps perfect for Kriegspiel. You would still need to find a print shop though unless they offer a service through the site I'm not seeing.

Druid and Aaron, thank you for the information I am looking into it.
