Well, a redesigned larger map would give extra space in which to put the plastic units, which would be nice, but it wouldn’t necessarily mean that it would take longer for the units to travel across the board because that would depend on whether the sea zones and land territories are large in size but few in number, or small in size but large in number. In the particular case of my custom table, neither factor was changed because the plastic units only get put on the normal four-panel part of the map. The auxiliary map panel on the left is just meant to help with the wrap-around visualization – though as a bonus, it also gives some extra free space as a handy working surface, as do the two table wings.
Final Global setup!
-
Can’t open it either…but the changes listed are all the changes, right?
-
As this was a public playtest effort, there are two kinds of people: those who participated and those who shouldn’t complain about the results.
Thanks to all of those who participated!
A rare show of emotion, I LOVE IT.
-
So there will not be any more Alpha’s or setup changes in the future? This is the final version which will be released in the second print?

@Young:
Incredible,
+2=pro allies
+3=pro allies
+3.5=pro axis
+3.9=pro alliesNo experienced player will ever lose England again, and Germany’s only option seems to be a drive toward Moscow
Don’t you think it’s a bit early for that kind of statement ?
Since Russia can attack Germany as soon as UK falls, maybe we are going to see  more G4 Sealion with less than 13 transports…

Perhaps, but I’ve always had an extreme personality. If sealion is still on the table, it might be a round or two later, with more resources required, and more loses taken.

Lol.
But you are right.
There are 2 kinds of people: those that will buy the next Axis & Allies game and those that won’t.
-
Their are actually three kinds of people in the world… @#$%s, !&()s and aholes…
You know where im going with this if you’ve ever been fortunate enough to watch “Team America: World Police”
:lol:

I try to use as many of my German units in the combat phase during G1. However, unless I attack Russia G1, I will be simply repositioning many of my valuable units in the non-combat phase giving myself a better setup for G2. I’m leaning toward a G1 Russian attack, but I would like to hear from those that play tested these changes and what their results were.
-
Is it the final setup… Or is it not…
Will there be a Alpha Final +1? :wink: hehe -
Is it the final setup… Or is it not…
Will there be a Alpha Final +1? :wink: heheThe answer to your question is always the same, it’s 99% final (the same answer two modifications ago). My suggestion is, when you see a second edition of global on your game store shelves, that’s when it will be 100% final.
-
i hope it is final enough that any future change can simply be done with a bid, just like all the other games……
-
Krieghund did say it is final.
-
After looking at the board for a couple of hours, 1 Strategic Bomber, 1 Fighter, and 1 Destroyer sounds like a good first round buy for Germany.
-
I would argue 2 strats and a sub. Really bomb the hell outta london starting rd 2. and hope for bad aa dice.
-
Wait do they get more land troops?

TripleA G40 please!

So the New Russian NO say each original German, Italian, and Pro-Axis. Does that include the Italian Territories in Africa, and the ones with no IPC. Hmmmm Originally this NO was just Europe centric–- did it just expand?
-
Its not Europe specific
-
If the Russians can get to North Africa, they deserve a bonus.
