Darn it IL! Every time I think I have our house rules nailed down you make me rethink them…Good ideas and despite the reworking it creates with our group we are thankful for the time you put into the thoughts presented.
Curious though - how many of these do you use, with any regularity?
Thank you so much! I was planning on figuring out how to work these in, but you’ve done it already? Just curious, has this had any playtesting? I know I’ll be working it in to my games in the future!

They evolve based on playtesting. I am sorry but i want perfection so even in sleep, i’m considering changes as well as research.

I am lost where is the most recent file for the global map and the finalized rule book. And wasn’t this originally a partnership between two. I had this huge map printed out at one point that was 8 ft by 4 ft and I remember at the center of the bottom there was the roundals and the authors of the map. I’m pretty sure this was it but I can’t remember and it’s been years. I plan to start up playing again.
I do recall this map being incredibly well designed and thought out. And the team being committed to evolution of the game.
So I don’t know if anyone’s still here and active but if you have a link to appointment the right direction that would be great!
P Panther moved this topic from Other Axis & Allies Variants on
@cminke whom are you referring too?
@Imperious-Leader Maybe you?
There was a duet that worked on a global 1939? maybe 1940 map. it was large and it was available by PDF. im talking years ago but it maybe something like “Thethingy123” and imperious leader i thought maybe not but i wish i could remember what it was or has any save of it.
@cminke It was you and Spitfire! The 1939 version!
is it still available? I want to reprint it and play it. my last board had so much damage after playing it so much!
IL’s Axis and Allies Global 1939 and 1942 files
Its in the house rules section under customization.
@General-6-Stars Yea exactly. Is in there. As far as a rule-booklet that someone mentioned, that should be in a file further down.
