My new project "National Battle Boxes" -updated 1/7

The various versions of Axis & Allies optionally require some sets of cards that more practically represent some features of the game mentioned in the rulebooks. They cover the regular versions but also some improvised adaptations.
The sets presented here consist of separate photos for each card, and some of them are from edits of single decks posted by other members. Also featured are some new back covers.
The following cards can be printed on any website that prints and sends cards such as e.g. the MPC (makeplayingcards.com).

A) National Objectives and Bonus Income
They are normally available in versions: Anniversary, and 1940 SE (Europe etc).
i) Anniversary 50th - National Objectives and Bonus Income Cards
The following set of cards is printable in Poker size 2.5"×3.5" (63.5×89mm):

ii) Global, Europe, Pacific, 1940 SE - National Objectives and Bonus Income Cards
The following card set is printable in Bridge card size 2.25"×3.5" (57×89mm):

With the addition of a few extra cards to the Global set this can be used for both the separate AA Europe 1940 SE as well as the Pacific 1940 SE versions. These have the corresponding symbol “E” for Europe and “P” for the Pacific at the top right and replace the corresponding card from the Global set.

However, this set has been improved by the designer in 2020

and is available along with other sets on the website:

B) National Advantages and Technologies:
i) The National Advantages feature is normally only present in the Revised (2004) version but they were also introduced in the customized Anniversary Upgraded Version designed and posted in 2018 by member Dagon81 at the link:
https://www.axisandallies.org/forums/post/352353
I supplemented this presentation in 2022 with sets of similar cards for the Revised (2004) and adapted it for the Spring 1942 and 1942 SE, omitting the 1940 SE versions.

ii) The Technologies feature is normally available in: Revised (2004), Anniversary and Global 1940 SE. I created card sets for these and adapted them for the Spring 1942 and 1942 SE versions as well.
They are printable in Poker card size 2.5"×3.5" (63.5×89mm), presented in the links:

AA NA & TECH Cards.jpg
It should be noted that in some sets a slight deviation from the border of the red dashed line was preferred in order to keep the original size and quality of the subject unchanged but also not to have too large margins around the main subject of the cards, which would look something like this:

I have had a 3D printer hobbyist CAD design a new BB playing piece and a new DD playing piece.
The BB is based on the WW1 UK Iron Duke modified for appearance. It is, certainly, better looking than the original BB design. Additionally, I (we) used a depiction of a WW1 US 4 stacker DD to make a modified DD playing piece for A&A WW1. The rationale that the Sub replaces the need for a DD just doesn’t ‘cut it’ (make sense). Most of the colour filaments used to 3D print these units are a good match to the original playing piece colours. I will post pictures of these as I have assistance doing so.

@SS-GEN

Will do. Thanks

Make up your own House Rule……here are some ideas

Recruitment Center (this one just happens to be a Nazi)
-The ability to build Reg. Infantry at non-factory territories
-Territories must have a value of (1)
-Only (1) Center per Territory
-Cost: 9
-Movement: N/A
-Build of (1) Reg. Infantry
-Can be Burned, or removed round before capture
-Can be Captured and be used
-Can be Bomb and unable to produce Infantry till repaired.  Cost of Repair is (3)IPC

These will be on my Shapeways Store Soon

Very nice work. I’m way too unsteady of hand and mind to pull that off.

Im working on a display for my HBG Minis.
But I decided to make a small table.

But i picked a different way of making it. Instead of picking out where to place tanks and etc… I played a small war game on it. Hence “Living boards” as each bored is determined by the outcome of a battle.

ORBAT
Allied-3 M4 Sherman/ 1 F-86 Sabre
OPFOR-4 T-34/ No air

Rules
Tanks
Rear- Die roll of 2
Sides -4
Front-5
Top-2
To defeat a shot you have to out roll the die.
Air support is a single sweep of 3 die. Air is called in rolling 4 die and getting 12 and up.

Turns
First 3 turns were moving. Turn 3 had the first M4 fire at a T34.
At the end of turn 3, 1 Sherman had been lost.
Turn 4 saw the loss of one T34
Turn 5 saw the loss of another M4
Turn 6 saw the loss of another T34 and a filed Allied air support call in.
Turn 7 saw no losses despite the Successful role for a Sabre air support.
Turn 8 saw the lose of the Last M4.

Result.
The Bridge leading out of town (Occupied by OPFOR) is blocked with the remains of the M4s.
The ORBAT forces lost half their strength, and must await engineers to clear the bridge.
The Bridge is still intact, but may have some damages due to the exploding tanks.
Allied forces failed to establish a front line on the other side of the bridge.
Images
Is they dont show up, right click and view image. Ill work on fixing them ASAP.
Turn 1

Turn 2

Turn 3

Turn 5

Turn 6

Turn 8

Out Come
OPFOR can push towards a Allied Airbase, where hopefully the Allies can hold to keep Air Support close (12 or Higher. If lost, the die role becomes 18 or higher.)
ORBAT
4 Allied Tanks
1 Allied Air
6 Opfor Tanks
1 Opfor Air
Any comments on how im making my displays? Also hope this is a proper area to post this customization, or would it fall in minis.

Thank you Paul. These all look very cool. Looks like I have a few options.

@djensen I bought a bunch once for my kids birthday grab bags. There was a few different sizes and shapes at the time.

I should go back and see what they have.

I need something for the A&A&Z game. My 42SE uses the boxes from my second Anniversary edition game. Those are nice boxes!
I made inserts from a file here or BGG which was print/fold/glue. It made 6 sections for the Ann. boxes. Inf/Armour-Art./Fighters-Bombers/AC-Battleship/other ships/Tokens.
