Grasshopper & Gargantua's 3G40 Deluxe Edition (Updated October 20th, 2018)

I believe around the year 2004 I purchased two great axis and allies maps created by a gentleman by the name of Ralph Boerke from Waterloo Canada.  The maps were laminated and the first one was a 1942 world map.  The second one was a Europe only map.  Anyways I just found both maps at my parents house. I have played the world map and loved it as Ralph included different rules for his game.  The Europe only map is huge! I never played it though :(. Has anyone ever played this A&A Europe map created by Ralph?  I know he was working on a pacific map also and wondered if he ever released it?

Anyway, if folks are interested in joining the development team, I could use the help.

Yes,
The Vichy and free French are battling it out.
This global game is pretty massive.
We like playing it though.

Hey, just as long as their new unit counter chips don’t have 18 different colors, I’m happy.

@Imperious:

BTW Eagle at least 20+ are from me to you. No i am not joking.

OK so I give you one applaud for stalking a fellow Volksgerman, and another smite for taking my thread off topic

Imagine the world map cut up into regions a la the A&A game board. You take turns moving resources, units, buying technologies, etc towards the objective of capturing opponents’ capital cities set in WWII. However, instead of rolling dice to determine conflicts as in A&A - you jump onto the battlefield and use the resources that were moved into the territory of conflict to play out a RTS battle. Being an A&A board game nut from my high school days AND a RTS fan, I absolutely consider it the best of both worlds.
Took it from Atari board.

.SICK!!!,i always tought of doing that,nice job guys@ atari

When will the game be ready and where can we purchase it? Thanks.

I’ve found that AAE and AAP combined is quite a lot of fun, but the way I play has been modified quite a bit:

-Every chinese territory is worth one, and americas total production is 44.
-Uks total production is 44
-Germanys prod. is 40
-Japan’s prod. is 24 (japan island value increased to 10)
-Russias prod. is 24
-India is directly connected to the adjacent middle eastern countries, tsingha is directly connected to the adjacent russian countries
-Axis goal is to capture two capitols: UK, india, new south wales, EUS, Moscow.
-Allied goal is to capture germany and japan.

The game is surprisingly very well balanced, and offers a nice change from normal A and A which gets repetitive. But yeah, setup is a bitch.
