Let’s scramble them all, please – 2 Brits & 1 French off London, 1 Brit off Scotland.
I have to say, though, I’m still confused about what game we’re playing – is this just the Balanced Canadian Mod, without any of the new House Rules that barney has been coding? I can get the Canadian map to run (sort of; it crashed when I tried to enter scramble orders), and I can get the Global40 House Rules to run, but I’m not seeing any game that has both the “Changer” player and the “Canadian” player at the same time. You might need to give me some very detailed instructions about how to get this setup – explain it to me like I’m five, as they say on Reddit.

We are playing the former one.
Regarding getting the merged map, Looks like I haven’t done that yet! I’ll do it now - by incorporating Canada into a version of the House Rules map.
Have you registered your email with MARTI, here: http://dice.tripleawarclub.org/ ?

Ok, I’ve added “Mega Mod” to the G40 HouseRules repository. You should be able to download that repo from within Triple-A and if you do that you should get the Mega Mod in your list of maps.

I changed the name to “Global_1940_House_Rules_with_Canada”

Thanks for the reminder! I just registered successfully with MARTI just now.
I don’t see any new maps in the “Download Maps” window in TripleA – does it usually take a day or so for them to show up after they’re added to the list?
Also, what I meant to volunteer for was to test a big chunk of the new 1940 House Rules, like the new unit types, new victory cities, extra bases, and so on. I’m willing to include Canada in that chunk because Canada is awesome, but if the only addition is Canada, then you might not have much fun with your playtest – I’ve literally never played 1940 before, and so I’m sure I will make dozens of rookie mistakes that would have been obvious to a more experienced player. On the other hand, if we add a bunch of new house rules into the mix, then maybe the standard moves won’t work well, and one person’s guess is as good as the next’s!
If you want to stick to just Canada, I’ll still give it a try for a few turns, but I may surrender early if I’m getting crushed.

Actually – I’ve over-estimated my time and energy, and under-estimated how easy it would be to try this stuff out. I’m very sorry to have put you to the trouble of setting up the game, but I don’t want to play any variants of Global. The map is just too huge for me, and I find it all overwhelming and not fun. I know there are lots of people who enjoy it, and I hope you find a better partner!

Righto.
When you click “Download Maps”, you should get a bunch of potential maps. House Rules is over under the experimental category.
Surprised your interested in the house rules bit though.
