nice work really like the panzer blitz
how do you determine which advantages each country gets or do they get them all?
As to the air and naval bases you can print some simple symbols, there are lots of those on this forum. The rules are similar… you may also leave those out of the game. Also, some cards mention tactical bombers… I got them from www.historicalboardgaming.com
Air bases allow +1 movement during noncombat phase, allow interceptor rules for fighters and on islands allow the defense of adjacent Sea Zones.
Naval Bases allow +1 movement during noncombat phase and repair of battleships.
Both can be damaged and destroyed during strategic bombing raids but both have AA defense. Rolls of 3, 4 or 5 damage the base, a 6 or more destroys it. The damage is not cumulative, after a bombing raid the base is either operational or damaged or destroyed, no chips here, just turn on the side to show a damaged base.
The decision on the number of National advantages is up to you and the group. If you intend to play with Free French rules you need at least to use one card - Liberation of France. The Chinese must also play with one that already comes with the game - Flying Tigers. 6 cards per major power is the maximum…more than that and you will probably forget some advantages. Each player may draw randomly or choose any decided number of cards or you might just give more experienced players less advantages or try to balace the game allowing the Axis or Allies to have more or less advantages. The number of cards is the same till the end of the game.
Some advantages seem to be major advantages and others minors… you may seek to balance that also allowing only 1, 2 or 3 major advantages per player.
I really like the cards did you design them or can they be found somewhere? Thanks
Sell me these cards. How much?
Really liking this project - I asked for a list of these awhile back but never got a response - looks like you’ve been busy 8-) !
Do you plan on making these cards available to the public? As in ordering them or a downloadable file for printing?

Hi, there is a file on BGG ref to those cards by Coachofmany and modified to fit Global 1939. Check it out to see if they are close enough to the ones you are looking for.

Thanks!
Yeah - like those spotter cards… but I’m wanting the template for those pictured…
Cheers Radar.
I designed them all… a real pain to find suitable decent images ;) The advantages, some are well known, some are adapted to AA 50 and others are my own design.
Yes, these are for free download. I cannot sell them of course, you’ll have the chance to download and print them.
Each card dimensions are 2.6 x 3.5 and not the usual 2.5 x 3.5 inches… so that can be a problem as all the online print services print 2.5 x 3.5 inch cards… and a different corner angle too.
I can convert them to the regular size if no other option comes up…
But, before placing them for download, what do you think of the advantages?
I’m thinking of making the cards available in a template for this online print shop…

Has anyone ever required their services? Other?
Thanks for posting that web site. Checked it out. Looks like I can get my 200 event cards custom made for $14.00 before shipping. Going to use the 2" x 3.5" size.
So are these available yet? I would really like to get these cards done for our game day at the end of Feb.
Thanks. These look great.
Ok, done! Just download and print them on A4 international paper sheets.
B is the common back.

So, what do you think of the advantages?
Does it work 4 global
Please make them available as playing cards…check out Artscow which can make them for like $8 bucks a deck. Also not fond of the Italian roundel, I would use the same roundel that the game uses for the backs of playing cards…
Awesome cards Dagon, was going to print up a test run set.
Yes, I can convert them to playing cards. As to the italian roundel I dont like the one from the game but I have a second card back version with all the roundels that come with the game. Anyone played with these cards already? I’m not sure these work with the global game, some cards are specific for AA50…
Great job with the cards. I have read this thread before but I haven’t been able to play AA50 in months and to try those out. There are a few ones that bother me a bit though because I think they are too powerful:
U.S. Advantages:
� Superfortresses � Your bombers are immune to antiaircraft fire. An enemy antiaircraft gun can roll one die against only each attacking fighter. (If no fighters are in the attacking force, the antiaircraft gun cannot fire). When conducting strategic bombing raids your bombers have a defense value of 1.
This means basically that the US can simply apply a bombing strategy against Germany/Italy to defeat it. I always dislike this because of how it can turn the game into a bombing strategy.
� Escort Cruisers � Your cruisers act as sea AA guns. Before battle roll 1 die if you have at least one cruiser in the hostile sea zone.
I assume 1 die per plane, which essentialy gives the US a huge advantage over Japan on the Pacific by increasing its defense against Japan’s planes.
The superfortresses may be intercepted by fighters, using my rules, you may defend a bombing raid if you have at least 1 fighter and an operational airbase in that territory.
As to the escort cruisers, so far, it hasn’t proved to be a too powerful advantage, but if so, you may roll only one dice for each cruiser.
