There is a new Gettysburg Atlas out that look like it would compliment the game very well. On the Military History Online forums in the map section are some posts and sample maps. I'll be getting one on my trip to GB on the 16th and 17th. Over 400 maps of Gettysburg and the Gettysburg campaign. This looks like a "must have" for you scenario designers.

You can get farther with a kind word and a gun than you can with a kind word alone.

I have a copy on the way somewhere. Looks like it will be a good cross reference to the other map sets we have used in designing both maps and scenarios.

Jim - did you get your copy yet? I picked mine up Saturday in GB. A pretty hefty book and a good addition to my library. Looks like money well spent. When I'm reading a Gettysburg history I'm always looking for a map in the book to go with the text so this will give me the map "fix" I crave. This Gettysburg Campaign Atlas looks like a great reference tool.

John,
Yes I have mine as well. :woohoo: This is an outstanding reference work that makes reading and understanding accounts of the battle much easier. Well worth the cost for anyone with an interest in the battle. With about 400 pages of maps you can't go wrong with this one.

Re:Gettysburg Campaign Atlas by Phil Laino
Yeah ordered mine a couple weeks ago, patiently waiting for it to arrive. 
I'm a frequent visitor of MHO, so it was fascinating to see Phil post some of the maps and have members of the community comment on them. Can't wait to get it. :woohoo:
