Four of the six Total War maps have now been redone. The next step will be to send them back to the printer for full size color proofs. These are sent to us express and it it takes only two days to “proof” the proofs. We overnight the signed copies back to the printer who then gives us a slot when the printing will be done and ready for shipment. The shipment to Denver will include the counters, boxes and maps and will arrive in a very large semi. We will announce it here when the printer will schedule a slot. Given the holidays and the need to give the print folks some holiday, it will be early January before we hear.
Due to the delay, we are extending the cut off date for ordering unfolded maps and ordering Total War with the bonus Soviet 1939-42 Order of Battle. This will be January 10th. After that date, the bonus OB will not be included in orders for the game. This OB will be offered for sale much later in the year and the flat maps should be available at our regular map prices plus postage.
We had hoped to get the game to all of you before Christmas. We sincerely apologize for this delay and hope your Christmas and New Year will be happy and enjoyable.
Eye on the Spires. The clip of the Moscow area has been shown before but in the latest version, is just a little different. A 1948 Soviet map allowed for a one hex change in the city and the airbases have been added since the early draft map.

Thanks for the update!!!
Looks sharp. We are right now in the middle of a game of Struggle in the East and enjoying it tremendously. Friend use to play it a lot during college but this is only my second time beyond a turn. :O)
Looking forward to getting Storm of Scandinavia and future The Winter War when back in production.
Thanks for all the hard work!!!
Meant Fire in the East/Scorched Earth….not Struggle in the East…. :O)
Maps look good but I can’t help but notice an information overload for that scale.
