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.

Good catch, there is always something :) I will updated that later today.

These are fantastic! They put my charts to shame! Great work!
-
but its fine if we dont share it with others right? because i modified your charts for private use and since i am the only one using it i know that most of the work was yours so im not passing it of as my own
That is my personal view. As long as someone isn’t passing them on to others claiming (or implying) them as their own work, I don’t have a problem with people modifying them.

Hey Mickelson, did you ever see that Axis and Allies Globe I made - for a forum avatar?
Wasn’t it dope!

I’m printing these out now and will be mounting them to thin cardboard. They will look like the AA50 charts when done. Thanks a bunch!

No worries. I went out and got a large black piece of picture matte, was $15 and a can of adhesive spray. They really do look great with a hard backing, should last a long time. (Assuming I don’t have to change them with more changes from Larry :) )
-
Many thank you’s for all this work! It’s exactly what I needed to keep all the new updates straight. Hats off to you!
-
Great work Canuck!
Printed on hardboard and looks great!
For those having trouble printing them:
Had this proublem at the copyshop too.
What should help is:- open in photoshop
- change pixel size to 300
- save as pdf
- print pdf
Thanks again Canuck!

^ that or just scale to fit your print media and you won’t loose any resolution.

These are awesome, Canuck! Thanks for sharing. Also, thanks FMG for converting them to PDF for ease of printing! :-)

I know it’s been said many times already…
Great job 94Canuck - These are my favorite charts to date.

Global NO chart missing Collect 5 IPCs per turn that Germany controls the United Kingdom. Theme: High national prestige.
On Japan set up chart Shangtung should be spelled Shantung.

Updated.

I am relatively new to this forum but I love the dedication and ingenuity of its players. Canuck94 these charts are AWESOME. I just printed them out and am going to laminate them at Kinkos. Great job man and thanks.
-
It has nothing to do with you being ‘that guy’, it has to do with your approach in general. A simple, “spelling mistake on the NO chart, fyi” would have sufficed. Will update tomorrow.
-
Hey these charts are awesome! Thanks.
In the research chart it should be super not suber submarines.
-
Both corrections made, files updated.
-
Great work 94Canuck! Really nice aids.
Any chance you will be making some task force markers?
And any chance you will be making equivalent aids for the Europe 1940?
