For those of us who use hex boards I found this site where you can download some Panzer Blitz and Panzer Leader map boards. Quite a few different ones there.I think some some of us can find them useful.

Great find. The markers are way cool, and they did a good job with the new maps and winter maps.

Nice site, thanks. I enjoyed reading "An Informal History of PanzerBlitz."

You are most welcome and thanks grin. I just happened upon it when I was looking for some OGRE compatible hex maps. Robert

Thanks Guys. I do try LOL. I am always on the lookout for anything I think can be useful and interesting. Robert

Wow, this brings back memories of scooting between wooded hexes and poking noses in and out of those gullies hoping not to be spotted. And then there's the dreaded Target Elevation Table !!!

Here are few more,

"PanzerBlitz/Leader(AH) – new "geomorphic" map boards. Each of the boards is divided into 4 sections. To print a board, print the
Left (LL) Left Center(LC) Right Center (RC) and Right (RR) board sections on any inkjet color printer. The five boards represent a large woods, generic open/hilly terrain, an artificial industrial pond or "gravel pit", a river with tributaries, and a gorge with steep slopes/cliffs. Author is Doug Swanson"

Just go down to the PanzerBlitz/Leader(AH) for the new "geomorphic" map boards.

I forgot to mention all the new counters too that I liked. Especially the minor countries and early war stuff. Robert

I also downloaded the miniatures version of PanzerBlitz before the site was taken down.

This site may be very helpful in making map boards. It has quite alot of aerial photos and maps from a few military sources like the Army Map Service for example.
