HBG's Global War 1939 FAQ

General Hand Grenade,

I really appreciate your You Tube videos. Global War 36 can seem intimidating to those of us who don’t have the time to thoroughly research it. I barely have time for a couple of G40 games a year. It’s very helpful to learn from your mistakes and it’s refreshing to see you so upfront about those. Please keep up the fantastic work.

Rank Carcass,

Your videos also helped in my education of GW36. I look forward to more content from your channel.

I have been slowly building up to play GW36, and recently finally got a map from HBG. Both of you will be responsible for starting with a greater understanding of the game and will have saved countless hours of my time having to figure it out.

I enjoyed the “Battle in the Bush”.

Just wanted to say thanks.

Hello all.

Thank you for all the interest. Much appreciated.

Just got a new computer, last one pooped the bed in the middle of map making.

I am working on new refurbished version of this game.

I am excited at this opportunity to give this version a face lift and a make over with emphasis on keeping the game streamlined and not overly and unnecessarily complex in nature while adding new elements to the game.

After getting some actual experience at other A+A varients out there, I have been introduced to alot of good and bad ideas.

But these varients all have one thing in common. They are all overly complex with much of it unnecessary and only achieves adding unwanted extra time to play. I am a firm believer in the Keep it simple stupid (KISS) method.

With that said, stay tuned for updates.
A d12 system will be used.
Game start date will be 1939 before polish invasion and politics will be a part of the game. In fact politics and the political landscape will play a huge role in how each game unfolds. My intent is that no 2 games played will be the same.

Technology will also play a major part for all the powers and may also influence the political landscape of each game.

I envision a gaming experience in which the players control the fate of their respective nations, and not necessarily follow the traditional and historical paths used by previous games or history.

The basic game mechanics will not change much, but the players freedom of choice of actions will.
