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

@barnee Alright I will check it out. Thanks!

@jkprince indeed 🙂

Thank you both for your interest!

@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!

I loved the struggle for europe map!! How the guy created it himself. Its so dam big! And he said he has a pacific map already! Imagine how big it would be joined together!!

Well i have not playested the E39 module enough, so continuing on Pacific would be next.

It is only a matter of 5-10 minutes to add oil centers, but i dont want to jump ahead of myself.

The main thing with e39 is creating an IPC fund for Germany and rules which govern it’s use. The amount is most important, but i have not played enough to get that right.

If you’re going for Amerika Bombers, why not also consider the HE277, JU-390 (ooo, six engined), or the TA-400.  Also, the HE-274 would be appropriate.
