Sources for WW2 battle maps. I enjoy doing maps and would like to do some "historical" maps. Any help will be appreciated Poppy
The Reference (http://www.the-proving-grounds.com/reference.html) area of The Proving Grounds has a number of links to historical maps that may be of use to you.

There is a complete set of scanned 1:100,000 scale topo maps covering all of Ukraine at
http://www.lib.berkeley.edu/EART/x-ussr/ukraine.html
Could be useful if you are doing Eastern Front scenarios.

You can also get 10-meter resolution satellite imagery for all of Europe and some other parts of the world at

It ain't historical mapping per se but it's a very spatially accurate, very consistent base map which you could use to see the real terrain in a lot of places.
