Funcioneta's 1940 Global module

I think it looks just fine Func thanks a ton.  Only one thing, you have a major IC placed in East Germany, it should be a minor I believe.  Thats the only error I’ve noticed.

Check if there is a aa gun at Volgograd or not. I’ll update the setup in a couple of days anyway, when I get the real game

Edit: also check Poland setup, because I’m not very sure of it

No AA there, no.

[gamerman01]

UK NO should be “No German subs on the board”, not “no subs in Atlantic”

[gamerman01]

Germans start with Norway/Sweden/Denmark NO, so should be flagged at start.  Sweden doesn’t have to be controlled by Axis, just so it’s not controlled by Allies.

WOOT Thanks Func!  We can now start epic G40 games without referring 5 million times to the board/website!  Thanks much!

@gamerman01:

German NO in Egypt is THREE IPC’s in Global.  It is 5 in Europe only.

It’s 5 in global, 3 in Europe

How do I get the screen to scroll over without resizing the window?  I’m using a 1920x1200 monitor and it almost fits on the entire screen, but it won’t resize past Hawaii in the Pacific.

LOL, nvmd, I figured it out.  Right mouse button.  Yeah.

Not in my rulebook, it’s not.

Func, Mickelson didn’t have the NO’s right.

The other UK NO is ALL original territories of UK AND ANZAC!

NOT Canada + ANZAC!

Funcioneta, please add a Air Base to the Philippines and the setup.

thanks func.  much appreciated

I’ve been curious about this for a while: what are the arrow units for? And all the other ones to the right of the flag you use for the income tracker of British India?

[gamerman01]

Calvin - Arrows indicate neutrality status.  Right arrow = pro-Allies.  Down arrow = pro-Axis

Func - Iraq is not spelled Irak

Kenya and Tanganyika are backwards.  Kenya is north of Tangan.

3 infantry and a tank is correct for Poland.

[gamerman01]

French Ecuatorial Africa is properly spelled “Equatorial”

[gamerman01]

I wish you wouldn’t have changed the names of some of the territories.

East Germany should be “Germany”
Hungary should be “Slovakia”
South Germany should be “Greater Southern Germany” (We’ll all abbreviate it anyway)
East France should be “France”
East Mexico should be “Southeast Mexico”

There may be more, but I’m tired of looking.
Changing names causes confusion between players who have the board, and those who don’t.

Thanks.

No, I made markers for pro-axis and pro-allies (as It says in the readme)

[Funcioneta]

OK, seems that there are some minor errors here and there, as I guessed. I’ll fix them all when I get the real board. If would be handy if someone post a list of all the errors

Errors regarding markers and setup are easy to solve, because all you have to do is modify start.aam

However, errors regarding to the name of territories and so, those need coding and, worst, need redo the setup from zero (because of how AABattlemap works). I’d like doing all at the same time

I think that ‘France’ will continue being named as ‘East France’, because it can be confusing with the name of France as playing power. Same goes to Germany/East Germany, UK/England, etc. In fact, I think that many of the territories have very bad names … Alberta-Shaskas-etc-etc? And why not West France? Or Stalingrad? Anyway, remember, this is only a beta  :-)

Thanks to all for the input
