See attached pics of our Global '39 game over the weekend. We incorporated some of SS GEN’s 1941 game rules. They were a big hit among the group.
Thank you SS GEN for all of your work and dedication to the game!!!
Allies took the match end of T1.
Sweet picks. Thanks for sharing. Glad some of the stuff worked in your game !
@SS-GEN
You are the man.
@koba
super crisp picks ! Look real good :)
Looks like a great weekend session - thanks for sharing the pics - If you wouldn’t mind helping out I have a question that I can’t seem to find the answer to re Global 39? On the 7.2 setup chart for Germany - it states that “1 Armour” costs 6$ - yet on watching a lot of Youtube videos, it looks like people use a cost of 5$… Is this a special first turn rule? Any clarification you could give would be really appreciated. Thanks
Welcome to the site !
You are aware of the German rule on turn 1 if they Capture I believe Vichy France they can place a Inf Art and a tank there for 5 icps 1 time in game.
Yes regular tanks do cost 6 Icps.
If it’s 5 icps for a tank then that would be a house rule.
A lot stuff in game is in the rules under each country if you haven’t read them completely?
Hi SS Gen - Many thanks for your quick response - yes I have had a good read through the rules, but just couldn’t find anything that talked about first turn for Germany being anything other than $6. What threw me was this video - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iUVqIVjaipY if you go to about 1min in you will hear that Germany buys 10 tanks with 52 IPCS and has 2 IPCS left over… I appreciate the video is quite old so maybe that’s the reason it’s different - but just wanted to check as this would obviously have a fundamental impact! Thanks again for your help.
Oh that may have been when it first came out with the 6.0 rules. I LL check and see if I have those rules still. I think I have all the updates over the few years.
I’ll let you know if it’s in one of them earlier versions.
Here ya go. 5 icp Tank cost. Year of 2012.
Perfect - that resolves it and makes sense - many thanks again for your quick response SS Gen - much appreciated - looking forward to getting going with this - the setup alone has taken several hours!
SS is correct
5 IPC tanks are from the old ruleset.
As one who used to play Germany a lot - I miss them.
