We played with dice, not low luck.
Global 42 Quicker, faster

The official 1942 setup from Larry Harris
ghr2 found this link somewhere and he posted it in the A&A variant forum
But since this is an “official” setup by Larry Harris, I taught it should be posted on the G40 forum.To sum it up… This is a 1942 game played on the 1940 maps. It will be
a much shorter game then the present 1940 Global game.Larry Harris

I haven’t tried it yet, but if any of you can, it would be nice if you posted a small session report to tell us if the game is balance and how long it takes

I was test building this on Triple A and i noticed that GER only has $ 54 in territories. Did they save like $ 1
-
I noticed that and that Italy only had 9.
Should there be an Italian Mech in Tunisia, as there is also a Frog Inf?
Otherwise, I should be starting this in the next week. Am very happy to have a different set up.

Sweet!
I already already feeling in the mood to crank out the Global 1940 again; but now I’ll do this one on the map! :)
EDIT: Would someone be willing to post a picture of the map with this new set up? And zoomed in pictures for each major area of the map?
-
Also need to get this on triplea fast, so we can play it on the forums/online!

Here is a triple a file depicting the starting set-up (not counting any loaded transports)

there might be a few errors, but its pretty close

Could you post a non-triplea link please? Like jpeg? I can’t see it from this computer.

I have taken pictures of the new setup.
I just don’t know how to post them. -

just use the snip it program from your accessories. mac and linux has one too.

This setup changes the turn order though…
-
The Russians can take back 5 tts for a total of 7 IPCs, attacking 17 German units with 36 Russaian ones and the Germans are unable to counter as they have a third of their strength in the West. Looks hard for the Germans, but they can make headway in the Med.
it would be a brave UK player who builds an Evyptian IC.
UK starts without a Med TT too, so cannot threaten much.
It looks interesting and my friend and I shoukd get a few turns in next week. -
Can you edit the turn order in G40?
Or must a new game be created ?

Well, over at Harrisgamedesign, Krieghund said this:
Yes, it’s legit, but there are some errors in the post that need to be corrected, most notably the turn order.

Wonder what the actual turn order is then…

Turn order is
Russia-Germany-Italy- UK pac & eur - Anzac - Japan - US - China - FranceThe board feels empty for me compared to G40
The German bulge in Russia is getting crushed on Russian turn 1 for sureStill I see lots of interesting decisions. US have ground troops at Guadalcanal and can already strike other Japanese islands
Pictures of the initial setup (sorry for bad quality)
http://s1365.photobucket.com/user/duboismerci/library/?sort=3&page=1 (uploaded each pics 2 time my bad again)Only problem I see is that the setup says 1 italian mech inf in Tunisia but also says 1 french inf in Tunisia
and Shan state is empty, seems kinda odd for me -
So the turn order is normal G40 ?
That is much better :) -
Nothing is concrete about G42 yet.

Why?
