New ASL player here and wondering if anyone has spare SK style map boards 9, 11 or 33 they'd part with for a not too insane price? Maybe you got both Doomed Battalions and the original Map Pack when they were in print and have duplicates? I can find older mounted versions on E-bay, but those don't work so well with the new SK style boards so figured I'd ask here.

These (especially 9 and 11) come up in a fair number of scenarios in my growing collection, but it doesn't look like DB is going to reprint for good while which appears to be the next time these would get reprinted.

Thanks in advance if anyone has got one and can reply or PM me!

[During the transition era, I would mix abutting mounted and SK boards thusly:
if I needed a mounted board, I'd stack an unneeded SK board beneath it;
if I needed an SK board, I'd stack an unneeded mounted board beneath it.
In this manner, the final arrangement was all same-thickness.]

They all 3 seem to be available on the MMP website for $6.00 apiece. It won't get much cheaper than that.
All three are listed as Sold Out on the website and I checked with MMP in person as well. Tried a few different retailers that stock maps and they are also out of stock of these three. But thanks for looking!

Texas-asl has some high-res scans of boards on their website.
You might be able to get a print shop to print the three boards on card stock.
The images will be 8" x 22" so the cardstock would need to be a bit larger.
This is a temporary solution until Doomed Battalions is back in print.

Yep, that’s roughly my backup plan. The files upscale well with AI resizing algorithms meant for drawings and I could just print the halves separately on a photo printer I already own.

But I figure if there is someone out there with extras in a crate waiting to be eaten by mice or be damaged when the water heater ADJACENT to them leaks, that maybe they could convert them into a nice meal or scenario pack by selling them to me instead…

Thanks for the idea!

Unless I'm missing something, those are VASL boards, which are only 72dpi, and thus not high-res. Shrug.
You could be right.
However, they print well (only slightly pixelated).
If I did not have the MMP maps, they would be usable until I could get the MMP maps.
Thus, I assumed that they were high-res.

There are a few of the newer boards I would like to obtain (KWASL, AP17), but they are out of stock -- and have been for quite a while. It makes me wonder if they will ever be available sperarate from those products.
