Episode 108

The Germans can’t get back into Rome! The Japanese hold India! The publisher is lazy as Hell and hasn’t put out an episode in 3 weeks!

Join us for round 8 of Global 1942.

Sorry for the delay, work’s been killing me. Also, I’m pretty lazy. If it’s any consolation to you as punishment for not putting out any episodes, the Universe hasn’t let me play the game either. We’ve got 2 games in thus far in 2014 and this must me rectified.

Hey guys I posted a poll in the forum to what others think about having a separate section for G42. Please vote and maybe we’ll get one.

done

82 for Russia, LOL.  BTW, I checked your site and really like your painted figures. I also painted all of our pieces.  We included SPA and Anti-tanks with our house rules.  HBG has very nice pieces but if your looking for some nice tanks and anit-tanks check out this site. http://www.ghqmodels.com/store/g11.html  I will have to get some pics of our pieces for you to see as well.  :)

[Most Holy]

Aye, I’ve seen that site. Cool stuff there. Feel free to post any pics here or on the modifications thread. Give me the link when you do. I love seeing painted pieces and knowing there are people just as deranged as me about this game. My work is certainly not the best out there but i really enjoy painting and seeing my own improvement as I continue. As always thanks for listening and for giving us feedback. Our next few episodes will be posted in the anniversary section as that’s what we played last. Hoping to get a good long game in for the 9th of May to celebrate the Soviet Union’s crushing of the Fascist pigs in Germany.

My friends and I are meeting in Michigan Thursday, 17  through Saturday, 19 for Global war 1940. Should be fun :)  I will post some links to pics from our game/games if you don’t mind.

[cyanight]

We completed game one with USA losing their capital on round 6. That’s was my fault I was playing Germany and could not resist.  Anyways Game 2 is more balanced because of tech rules. Germany has Heavy Bombers, UK has Rockets, and USA LRA.  This game was saved with TripleA and maybe we can finish it someday.   The orange chips are 5 and black ones are 1 for IC damage.  Also Green chips on our game are 10’s not 3. 1940 Global is such a long game.    It was a lot of fun.  Can I link Pictures from Facebook on this site?

[cyanight]

Here are some pics from our game…

bummer, can’t see the pics. it says they’re unavailable.

[cyanight]

Can you see these? These are actually two different games.

This one Shows Japan’s Kamikaze tokens, treasury and 1 tech die.

This is are magnetic economy board.

[Most Holy]

Aye, beautiful pieces dude! Very well done. are those decals? I’ve always wanted to try decals, they make the pieces look 10 times better than my hand painted roundels.

[cyanight]

Yes they are decals. (1/144 scale). The part that you can’t see in the pictures is that all the fighters and tactical bombers have magnets drilled into them to make them stick to the carrier. They actually jump off your hand onto the carrier.  All of our players enjoyed that perk the most. Made it so easier to move the carrier’s with planes on them. I put 2mm x2mm magnets in the fighters and 3mm x 1mm in carriers and tactical bombers.  Also set the polarity so that only axis planes can land on axis carriers and vice versa, lol.

Here is a pic of my Flying Tiger.

It was not easy finding a good China decal that small. Here is the link of the where I found it.

The rest of my decals I got off ebay. Just do a search for decals.  If you look at the IC’s you will see decals on gold complexes.  This indicates a major.

Here is a pic of the damaged Bismarck from failed retreat.

Nicely done cyanight, nicely done!!

[Most Holy]

That magnet idea is brilliant I’m going to look into that next time i paint my navy.
