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.
Playing Global 1942 at GenCon
-
I just wanted to take a quick roll call to see who is playing Global 1942 Setup at GenCon this week. Sounds like we are going to have a bigger group compared to past years.
Global players are hard to come by for face to face matches. Maybe we can coordinate another event post GenCon.
If you’re coming please respond and include where you’re traveling from.
Look forward to seeing y’all there.
I’m traveling from Nashville, TN.

How does the Gen-Con tournament A&A work?

Coming from Little Rock Arkansas :-)
While I’m registered for G42 (friendly on Thursday and qaul on Friday) I’m more looking forward to the G40 pick up games :lol:

3 to 4 rounds of the tournament, single elimination, using the Global 1942 set up. Axis win by having 125 IPC’s worth of territories on the board at the end of 7 rounds. Officially there is a time limit of 8 hours, but that is due to the championship game being limited on Sunday, because the conference shuts down early.
Most agree on the front end to play the full 7 rounds.

we played to the tournament rules weekend before last. 7 turns is about what fits. 8 is possible I suppose. At least 3 of us from the KC area are coming for the G42 tournament.

Thanks for info. Will plan on coming next year.
