Global Map, High ress and with starting pieces on!

Yea, different ways to play. Triplea live makes for quicker decisions. Forum is fun too. You have enough time to make your optimal move.

Idk, I’d look for people that prefer your /their play style if playing online.

Personally : ) I like to play later in the game. I think of it as a different challenge.

Could also try different Victory conditions by how many RDs it takes to win or lose.

For example, wrestling. Minor, Major or Draw. each is worth more than the other well except for draw lol

@ PainState Sorry Dizz : )

@Koobs:

Just bought the two 1940 games, and I definitely recommend buying the boxed games. It’s just a whole different feeling; opening up the boxes, setting up the pieces, etc. Really makes you more immersed in it.

Very well said.

@corporal:

  I have the Global 1939 from Historical Boardgaming….was wondering if anyone has come up with a '39 setup for Global 1940

Go to House rule forum and look at the AARHE rules files, its a sticky.

Someone on BGG has a global 2e map with the setups. Check either the Europe 1940 or Pacific 1940 games there.

The rules are the same on this point in both editions.  See the Official Europe & Global Rules Clarifications.

Thanks for the responses.  They were a big help.

@Pelanderfunk:

I don’t know what the official name is, but I looked around the internet for a long time before I broke down and made my own.  You can get “croupier sticks”, which are what the croupier uses to collect the dice in craps, but it doesn’t really have that “war room” feel to it.

I just bought some wooden dowels and balsa strips from a craft store, then I cut the strips into rectangles and wood-glued them to the ends of the dowels.

Yeah I was thinking of doing the same.
