I based off what they pretty much had at peak of war. I didn’t do the 1 piece equals so many. I just made it like Uk 6 BB and spread them out. US I had 7 BB but reduced it to 5. 4 damaged in Hawaii at start of game. If it had like real 4 light cruisers and 2 h cruisers I just made that 2 normal cruisers and 2 more normal cruisers. To eliminate the 3 diff pieces. Everything else straight up with tweaks to setup as we played the game.
Yes the eastern front setup is more like spring of 41 than dec. 41 like pac is. based on the game balance and timing to work
Out. As u see the battle of the Atlantic is at its peak too. More like dec 41 there. Only issue in most games if not all is the d day invasions. Most happen before June of 44 in all games but to get correct US wouldn’t attack Europe until turn 7 or 8 with torch happening sooner
That would be a major setup change and year of turns.
I have my own map for game too.
Global War 1939 Combat Chart for 12 sided dice
-
Here is a battle chart I plan on using when we play this weekend.
Did an attack & defense battle board/reference chart that I intend to put in a sheet protector w/attack on front, defense on back. I’ll make up two sets (one for axis, one for allies). When we battle I’ll place them both next to each other (lining up the #'s top & bottom) as you see in the attachment and use it as a battle board. It should print out on two 8 1/2 X 11 sheet of paper (landscape).
Please let me know if you see any mistakes (there’s a lot going on in this game). Making it up I think it helped me get familiar with all the different values and units. Maybe it will be a good reference for newcomers like me.
Edit 8-24-12. Noticed I spelled Defense wrong (twice) LOL. That’s what you get at 4 AM. Please reply if you see anything else off so I can fix it.
Edit 8-26-12 added ***tac bmr can boost any tank+1 on a 1:1 bases (on bottom of Attack sheet)
Edit 8-30-12 re-named to include “combat chart” in the down load description, nothing changed in the chart itself.
Edit 11-18-12 to update damaged battleships now attack/def at 5 or less
