So are the columns just different variations of the same A,B,C,D, and E segments? (I'm a bit slow today)

I like it, especially the 1756 map on the top as a representation... you could even have things pop up in unexpected places!

That is immensely cool. I love the 'tilable' nature of it all - I know there's a word for that but I can't remember what it is... I think I mean 'I love how it tessalates'. Great job!

Beautiful hand drawn map Silent Invader it's a really characterful addition to what is already a very cool project, the digital map on the other hand is very instructive and just show's how much flexibility you have with these boards and just how much variation you can create on each individual board with all that fantastic terrain of yours. This has really inspired me to make some of my own boards rather than just plumping for a battle mat.

I'm assuming Christian is correct. There are only 5 "panels", 6 with the sea panel, but they are used with different terrain features upon them.

Personally I think its brilliant, and typically well thought out by SP.

Love something like this for Indostan.
