Final Global setup!

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.

Guten Tag Mein Freund und Wilkommen!  :-D

Check out this link from A&A.org’s own home page, it has a pretty good global map (click the map to expand)

Thanks bud.

Im looking to Frankenstein the ultimate 1940 global game ;) still looking for a battle chart too

You can buy small flying bases from games workshop for $4.50 each….
They are pretty good…kind of big on the bottom though…check them out!

Hmm….this victory condition seems to make winning even tougher for Axis.

In any case, thank you for the reply!

@mwindianapolis:

how about just toss for them?

UFC cage match in the back yard!  :evil:  :-D

I have posted a new R1. Lets play the game!

All that is needed to destroy the RN is the Luftwaffe for one turn when they do not have that much else to do. The Germans losses are limited to a few subs and a plane or two. It is a bit extreme but i understand why it might be needed for balance.

I played it. DJensen is correct.
