Speaking of maps... can you provide some good ones of New Switzerland and New Zion for the belligerents?
National Geographic has surely sent a few teams out to map both places (like they did every other place in the world) and so the geography of both would be public knowledge.

Knowledge that some of us might need.

I'm using this map at the moment. I have the rift being from 50km east of Adigrat straight south to 50 km east of Debre Birhan. Then turning Southwest to where Sudan, Ethiopia, and Kenya meet.



A New Switzerland map is being made with help from Ithekro, thought that one might be delayed a bit.

The Above Map I found to be quite Useful... the area of Interest is the Area between
Weldiya and Debre Birhan which from what I can find is the actual coastline on the Map of Africa Rocky Posted.

Weather permitting, I will aim to possibly have H1/July up on Sunday.  But no promises.

Thanks to all for submission of orders and other info.

Draft report for July 1-15 is just waiting for the other mods to give a sober second look.  It will indeed be up tomorrow at some point.

Spoilers:  Something sinks.  Somebody gets shot.  Oh, and we have our first serious two-sided aerial campaigns in history.

Yea 15 days combat in the Highlands I expect 10% casualties and thats with both sides being unarmed.   Add real bullets and lots of trained Pilots and if we get 3 or 4 flying days per week well lots of damaged aircraft and a few aces maybe....
