Hi ANZAC. For the HBG 1939 map, think of a 4x8 sheet of plywood. Its is HUGE and awesome. You need a big room for that size table plus room to walk around on all 4 sides. I only played the 1939 game one time and I can say it is definitely superior in a hundred different ways, but playing it is an order of magnitude more complex than global 1940. Global 1940 seems like the kiddie game next to it, which is nuts because global 1940 is not an easy game by any means. I’d say your best bet is to get the global 1940 if only for the pieces, and then blow the extra money for the 1939 map and elite pieces if and when you and your crew outgrow it. Another option is to play 1940 on this site with triplea.
Global 2e: Is Central US and Ontario adjacent?
-
Looking at the 2e global (Europe) map I can’t tell if Central US and Ontario are adjacent. That little south western protrusion off of Ottawa is what looks like may make contact with Central US.
Anyone?
I checked the TripleA map and they have a very noticeable connection between Ontario and Central US, but I don’t play that game so I’m unsure if this is the case.
-
Yes, Ontario is adjacent to Central United States.
I know it looks a bit confusing, but I’m pretty sure that you don’t count the Great Lakes as a water barrier like a Sea Zone. I guess we are supposed to assume that the Axis would use ferries and/or bridges to cross them. -
