I took a careful look at the Global War 1939 board that Coach is selling over on his new site… and I bought it! I think it might be my favorite board that I’ve yet seen, and it might be big enough to combine with a complete Panzerschiffe navy. When it arrives, I’ll break out my Panzerschiffes and check for compatibility. If it works and if no one out there seems to have a more full naval line-up by this summer, I’ll probably start gradually working on adding to and painting my Panzerschiffes to create my ultimate navy. Meanwhile, I’m going to wait and see what sort of piece sets are available by then between Coach, FMG, & TT before pulling the trigger…

Hey dadler: Here’s my latest table on how to maximize the number of useful units

Also, our chances of ever having both a heavy tank and a heavy tank destroyer seem remote at this point, but we can dream, can’t we? Heck, we could even maybe put in a Medium-Heavy Tank (Panther ?) at 3/3/2/7 and a Super-Heavy Tank (Maus ?) at 4/4/2/10… But maybe that’s just crazy-talk…

Very cool. Thanks for the ideas. I would use this table but I would make things like Elite infantry and all the heavy stuff dependent upon unlocking them via tech. Do you have anything like this for air and naval units? |

i really would like to see the M18 and the Pershing as the U.S. tanks
