Global 1940 Faction Setup Sheets

[Simnos]

Hi All,

I created these setup sheets/cheat sheets for an upcoming game. They’re designed so that each player can sit down and have most of what they need to know in front of them all the time.

Example:

Download all the sheets here: [https://www.mediafire.com/file/je5iw8q2v16g0qt/Simnos_Setup_Sheets.docx/file](link url)

Feel free to use them in your own games, or change them as you see fit. I’ve put them on the Word file I worked from so everything is editable. I’ve printed mine on glossy paper and I think they look great. I may laminate them too so they last.

If you see any mistakes please let me know (especially if you see them before my game on 13/10/24).

Additional note: I have slightly changed the factions so that the US player has control of ANZAC and the UK player has China. I just prefer it that way. If there’s a will for it I could probably do an altered sheet with the original combinations.

@Simnos they look great. Doesn’t France go last though?

[Simnos]

@Darth-Vahl you’re right! Thanks. Will look to fix that and re-upload when I get a chance.

I don’t think it will make a difference in many games though.

[Darth Vahl]

@Simnos probably not. They look great and I’d love to print these up for new players to use.

Thanks, I used your sheets as a template to tweak around with and I build a new template for some player sheets I wanted to create. Having all those boxes was a little hard on the eyes so I went with a little cleaner version, and to allow that nice background art punch through a little more.

I made it for an 8.5x11 sheet and you should be able to place the faction roundels on the board at the designated locations to help easier track National Objectives and State of War (although the latter is usually easy to keep track of).

Anyways here is a sample of what I did with the Germany sheet you posted.

@throgmorton That looks beautiful mate. I’d definitely switch to yours for my next game if you want to post them!

@Simnos happy to share, I still consider them WIP but please let me know if you see any errors or if I omitted something that maybe useful. Right now a lot of the text is verbatim from the rule book so I do want to try and streamline it. I also couldn’t figure out where you sourced your background images from but ideally I would like to have a unique one for each (right now they recycle some of the others). So if you have any similar that could be used for the minor powers let me know.

Anyways here is how they look so far…

Look Way Sweet !

@Black_Elk has a buncha images he’d probablly turn you on to. There in triplea in his UHD map. Can’t do zip files here, so Idk how to post them, other than individually.

I doubt he’d mind. Idk. He’ll let us know :)

Edit
yea go to triplea and DL UHD Global.
Open it up until you get to flags folder

@barnee thanks I’ll have a look but I thought tripleA was more for maps and units and stuff, not wallpaper art that is being used for the backdrop of the faction sheets.
