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 Team game when it comes out!

C. WHO THE F*** CARES!!! LETS JUST PLAY (jk option) -

-
A.
One way or another, as long as every player knows the rules and has some way of knowing the map and position and pieces, we’re good to go. :-D
Most of us will probably have the board game at nearly the same time.
I think Germany goes first, so hopefully I get my game about as early as everyone else…. But if I don’t, I’ll find some way of making a G1 :lol:
-
hopefully by the weekend of the 24th of august we will get it. if not then we shall wait.
-
Yeah me too, I wouldn’t know where to start.
You don’t have to know how ABatlemap modules work. If you know how to use Paint.NET, or are interested in figuring it out, and can be meticulous and detail-oriented, that is all you need.
Don’t feel obligated at all… I’m just sayin. If I don’t find the help, that is fine - I will still try to do it all myself, it will just take me a few - to several weeks longer to get it finished.
-
i can try and iof you dont like rejeect it. if this speeds up ill do it.
-
If it’s not too late, I shall also be ANZAC and China.
-
were gonna see if more people come. if not you may because you are a minor country of france.
-
I’d be willing to sceede control of Italy to i-rock in exchange for playing as China
-
Deal.
USSR: Proud American
Italy: i rock
France: UN Spacy
US: maverick_76
UK: Funcioneta
Germany:Gamerman01
Japan:
ANZAC:
China:Clyde85 -
whens this going to start? aug 24th?
-
hopefully the weekend of the 24th. by then we should all have our games.
-
bringing this thread back to life. Since We are dropping I propose the following Sides. We may not have 1 for each country but hopefully this works.
Since the US/USSR are going to be neutral fro awhile they should have a minor power. So i propose.
USSR: Proud American
Italy: i rock
France: UN Spacy
US: maverick_76
UK: Funcioneta
Germany:Gamerman01
Japan:Clyde85
ANZAC: Proud American
China:maverick_76.This way each neutral power shall have something to do until they enter the game. Clyde you got a good deal I gave you Japan for puny China. Let me know how you feel.
Edit: If anyone new wants to join just say so and well add you.
-

-

-

-
I’m curious what Gamerman01 and Irock’s strategy will be? There has been discussion of various strategy’s and opening moves. I’m wondering if they will consider them. Also, will there be a chance for the peanut gallery to critic moves as they are played after each nation’s turn?
-
1. If you want to jpoin ask
2. Since this will be played here if ‘peanut gallery’ wishes to review we invite them to. -
