For all we know, they're working on it already? I do wonder what mapping software they're using. It looks boffo!

Another one showing the rest of Iran and part of Iraq is also called for. Be nice if they're working on it.

I bought both of these and to be brutal, I was a little disappointed that they covered a relatively small area. From the description I was expecting a larger area to be shown.
That's no fault of the maps, they're still very useful and fit in nicely with the maps we've seen in T2k, that was simply my assumptions coming in to play but like mpipes and Matt Wiser, I'd really like to see more of those regions mapped out.

Are they detailed enough to run a campaign, especially the Carpathian one and are they worth the money. Thanks

They are very much like the map supplied in the 1st Ed. box and in the module "Going Home" although they cover a smaller region than those maps.
They both come as a base map and also as a map with hex overlay.
I think the Trans-Caucasian map is better value because it comes with many more iterations of the map but considering that they're both on discounted sale at the moment, I think they are worth buying if you intend to run a campaign in the area (or you're a collection nerd like me).

Purchased the European map and I really like it
Covers an area from Belgrade in the south to Prague in the north and would be perfect to run a Danube campaign from Belgrade to Budapest, Bratislava and Vienna.

I should have mentioned as well, that because these maps cover a smaller region than the maps from the 1st Ed. box and Going Home, they give more detail per map (smaller scale, higher detail) so are subjectively more useful.

I believe the designer posts here as jedo. He's also responsible for building a numbered hex version of the original T2k boxed set map and indexing it with canon unit and encounter locations:
