What's the first thing you'll do upon getting Europe 1940?

@SuperbattleshipYamato

Additional balance note:

On TripleA I set all sides to the Fast AI to guarantee equal players. As you can see, the Allies clearly won:

@fatal_papercut:

I just realized that I cant invade through turkey unless I declare war on all strict neutrals.  is there a big downside to that??Â

The downside is that, when you invade a strict neutral, every other strict neutral starts to lean in the direction of your opponents: if you’re an Axis power, all the strict neutrals become pro-Alllied; if you’re an Allied power, all the strict neutrals become pro-Axis.  This means that your opponents can walk into those countries and take control of their income (if applicable) and their standing armies (if applicable), without meeting any opposition, whereas you can’t do the same: if you enter a “pro-the-other-side” country, it behaves like an enemy and you’ll have to fight its standing army, if it has one (check for the silhouette of an infantryman on the map, with a number next to it indicating how many infantry units are present).  In essence, invading a strict neutral gives your opponents the chance to pick up lots of free infantry units.  (Incidentally, invading a strict neutral doesn’t exactly involve “declaring war” on the strict neutrals in the same sense as declaring war on a player power; it simply changes the political status of the strict neutrals.)

Hi L0ken, I’ve been trying for a while to find a copy of Europe that isn’t those crazy high prices you saw on ebay.  If you can let us know where to find it that would be great, or if you want to let me know how much you want for your extra copy that would also be fine by me.

I’ve been hoping to get it before a big board game part that I’m going to next weekend so e-mail really wouldn’t work for me, but let me know if you could do a faster transaction.

Thanks, and congraulations on your luck!

@bladewar:

the income of nations remain the same or change as well as I have seen that Russia has 38 such ipc for global version
–-------------------------
Use the box incomes, but give USSR 9 extra IPCs.  Do not give it the two infantry per turn in Novosibirsk.

Sorry for spanish clarification:
No te confundas “bladewar”, los IPC para jugar a Europa 1940 no son los mismos que para GLOBAL 1940. Por eso yo enumeré cada uno de los paises para “Krieghund”, para resolver todas las dudas. Ahora ya los tienes.

hi guys!

since dynamic counter would ruin it: first post coming up!

to the point: i have a layered europe map in the works. as i understand modules for regular sw are a work in progress as well, i still found this the only way to have a ‘map’ ready in acceptable time (i’m from central eu, would take a month or so for the actual boxes to arrive…).

only problem is with the layering, in the sense that you do need some basic PS knowledge and the sw itself (or equivalent) if you want to use it… meaning tossing around units and so…

still, if you’re interested, let me know, should be ready around… sunday evening (US time)… expect a huge file… :)

also, right now i m using a 1500x1500px base map, the highest resolution i could find. if sone happens to have a better one, please redirect me… (map only, no units and glares and stuff like that)

(note: player with some AA experience - myself - seeking opponent for aae40 game, as posted under the relevant section…)

I thought it was funny that one of the first things it brought up was a review for AA50.

Can we combine this with A&A on a Colonial Diplomacy map and play global?
