Is there a set up to play 1942 on a global board?

@the-captain Oh damn! I never read the book, but I did see the HBO flick with Rutgar Hauer in the mid 90s hehe. It had a good set up in the intro, playing the film reels, but with an alternative narration. Failed D-Day as the premise right? And then everything going to hell after. Seems like a potentially interesting scenario. Like that one and the Man in the High Castle both work a similar “what if” angle. I always thought A&A in 1942 was a bit like ‘what if Japan had won at Midway’, cause like Charlton Heston and Henry Fonda couldn’t get the job done, and that explains why Japan is all Globe trotting in the endgame lol. That would be like my head cannon to explain what’s happening on J1 in 1942.2.

For a PvP game you never really get the chance to see it unfold, but in SP vs the AI in tripleA, the endgame of virtually every WW2 map can go like Alexa Davalos straight through the portal into Invasion USA lol. Like that boardgame Amerika right, but with a Global map instead of just North America I guess? Seems like it could be cool!

@SS-GEN said in Is anybody playing Xeno World at War?:

thanks for the update you guys are the best. Can I ask what set is after UK?

WW1 would be good because we could use this in conjunction with AA global. I still vote for the RED STAR and Swastika.

@reloader-1:

7.50 IF you find a copy - trust me, I went to 5 different ones!

Thanks you just saved me a trip.

When you start the game, select “Game Options” on the left side of the menu to find the “Territory Turn Limit” option.  I’ve also always played with a house rule of ‘no tech’ because it I feel it introduces too much influence on a few technology roles.  I think your strategy is sound, we just play different games :)

As an aside, I do like the technology development that Global Conflict in this forum introduced.

Neither for different reasons.

1939 Starting date imho is pointless because we all know that Norway, Western Europe and Balkans will have to fall and Italy has to join the Axis for Balance purpose. It offers players very little other than constantly repeating almost the same historical outcomes from 1939-1941.

1942 date is not good either because the most interesting parts (Barbarossa/Japanese Expansion) are passed and left the players very little options.
