How to make BG version of TtR Swiss out of the computer game
First of all, you need the computer version of TtR(sorry for those who don’t want to buy the computer version…)
(or just download the map from days of wonder, but with the resolution, I think the outcome is not that nice.)
After install the program, “play solo” with the Swiss map.
Try to choose 2 Country to Country ticket and the beginning of the game so that the cities are not highlighted.
Double click the map to enlarge it. Use the “Prt Sc” print screen key and then paste it onto any graphic program.
You’ll have to do this 4 times , upper left & right, lower left & right. Then merge this 4 image.
Print them with scale of 120% enlargement, or 465mm x 722mm. Laminated them, pasted them of card board and do whatever you like to prolong it life.
There you’ll get TtR Swiss map…
Now for the destination ticket…
From the Days of Wonder site, I know there 46 destination ticket. 34 stantdard city-city ticket, 4 city-country ticket and 8 country-country ticket which have duplicates.
Draw new destination ticket every turn, and of course you have to use “Prt Sc” and paste them.
After the draw pile exhausted, You’ll have to restart the game because there are some tickets in Dumbot’s hand. Do this until you got 42 different tickets.
Then print them, remember 2 for each country-country tickets.
About the same size as tickets in TtR US version will do.
Cut them out, laminate them.
At last, You can also print the PDF rules of the Swiss Version in the CD if you want to.
    
I’ll probably sell them for US$100  (just kidding... not for sale~) for the time consuming process and the risk that I’ll be sued by Days of Wonder for copyright infringement.

Sean!
Sounds great,,,but I don't think you could sell them. I'd check into that.
Hopefully, DoW will just decide to make their own...maybe in a cheaper small-box format expansion of sorts. That way, those who deserve the profits will get them.
