This map is of the Spanish Civil War in 1936. It's not to scale in a few areas, but I think it's relatively accurate.

Team A:
OS - Civil Guard + Nationalist political parties
GS - Condor Legion (Nazi Germany)
JS - Fascist Italy
PL - Army of Africa + Spanish Foreign Legion
Team B:
BM - People's Republican Army + Civil Guard + Republican political parties + unions
YC - International Brigades
AR - Spanish Communist Party

This map should be played with FOW. There should also be no CO powers. Ban megatanks, neotanks, rockets, missiles, piperunners, carriers, submarines, black bombs, stealths, fighters, and bombers. Mechs, t-copters, and b-copters should be lab units. AR mechs and pipe seams in the southeast represent increasing amounts of Soviet aid. The JS artillery with the PL t-copters represents Italy giving transport planes to airlift the Army of Africa into Spain.

A really nice map. Will have fun playing as the weakest faction: International brigades

Grimm is the colorized version of General Franco

No Brit*sh aid?

What British aid?

"During the Spanish Civil War, most European countries followed a policy of non-intervention ... Primarily arranged by the French and British governments"

Updated map review:

It is impossible to replicate on this map the events of the Spanish civil war, but that is for the most part because it is impossible
to recreate with mechanics of Advance Wars various events that took place. Geographically great, passable balance-wise,
overall 6/10
