Sorry folks, family came over and I've been dog sitting so I have hardly been near the computer in days, not that getting sick yesterday helped. Even now I am on my way up to look after the dog. Dog and family are gone after New Years day so i will hopefully be back online regularly soon and have this project wrapped up. Its really my fault for not getting enough work done on it before the Christmas week, but who's pointing fingers?

Merry Christmas folks!

No worries.

Looking forward to seeing what it's going to be exactly. :)

No need to apologise Tanit, you can only do what you can only do. I assume the winter chill has given you a cold? I would trade my current weather for your ice weather anyday, atm its 46 degrees celcius!

I look forward to your project!

anyways, jokes aside: any news on this whole monopoly thing?

I'm back and running! However I need to reinstall my copy of photoshop so this could take a week or maybe even two if projects weigh me down. Who ever thought the final stages, building the centerpiece image and dividing the images in groups on 8 1/2 by 11 sheets would be so much effort? All the cities are done, the community chest and fate squares, utilities, railroads, Free parking and go to jail squares are done. Just need to do the center, Go and Jail squares. Also, would you guys like custom fate and community chest cards? It'll mean the project takes a little longer, more for coming up with ideas than actually making the images, and it will be more to print out. On that note would you also like custom square information sheets with the costs, name, rent information, etc on them?

Yes to all ! :p

**Tanit** · 01-11-2011, 02:41

Ok, I will get on it!

**Blxz** · 01-22-2011, 10:55

Hows this going? I played a game of monopoly yesterday and just thought to myself "this would be so much better if it was less london-centric and more EB era...."

Looking forward to it Tanit.

Sorry, this project was put on hold due to other work. But I think I'll take it up again.

**Ibn-Khaldun** · 07-02-2011, 08:58

Good to hear that!

Although I have not had time to make custom cards for the print out, the squares and centre are all done and I would like to release the printout as it is so far. It may be a year late but the design has been overhauled and I hope you like the end result. I may still take a crack at unique info, chance and chest cards for public enjoyment, but it is, admittedly, not high on my priorities list.

The holidays may be more or less over, but thats no reason why you can't still receive presents!

Card replacements travelling from GO.
GO, Massalia, Community Chest, Roma, Goods Tax, Amber Route, Numantia, Fortuna, Gergovia
Bibracte, In Prison, Taras, Pillars of Herakles, Pella, Pergamon, Persian Royal Road, Taksashila
Community Chest, Persepolis, Baktra, Free Docking, Pella, Fortuna, Babylon, Antiocheia
Silk Road, Memphis, Kyrene, Red Sea Straits, Alexandreia, Go to Prison, Rhodos, Pantikapaion
Community Chest, Athenai, Isthmos Causeway, Fortuna, Syrakousai, Pirates, Kart-Hadast

The orientation of the center pieces:
Top left corner, the one closest to free parking, should include Spain, Gaul, Greece and Italy
Top right corner, the one closest to 'Go to Jail' should include Sarmatia, the community chest card placement and an image of a Galatian
Bottom left corner, the one closest to Jail, should include the logo, egypt and a Baktrian Hetairoi
Bottom right corner, the one closest to GO, should include Arabia, Persia and India

I will try ot upload a picture of my own printout later.
