[Global 1940] What do you use for new game pieces?

@SuperbattleshipYamato I like the ideas/rules you mentioned. I will follow through on triple a.

@timothy-gengarella said in Air Bases:

ff in a land zone that does not have a airbase but land in a territory that has a airbase do you still get the bonus movement?

Youll get the movement bonus next turn.

You dont get extra movement to reach a base.

Benefits of making all units AA.

No need separate AA gun, more space. Cheaper air and naval costs allow more different combination of purchases. It encourage German naval build up and two ocean going USA. Losing air unit isn’t a big deal anymore.

Though I have been still working on balancing units with each other after giving AA ability. I think I’m getting closer.

Further stacks do not increase AA possibilities. Only matter is amount of attacker planes. 1/6 shot down chance per attacker air unit.

I had to give ground forces +1 defense otherwise especially infantry would become so ineffective considering fighter has 2 defense and just 3ipc cost.

This is of course unplayable on board because of fractionel numbers and upkeep ( Yes there is also upkeep and method to buy 1 destroyer despite 3.5 ipc cost but its out of topic otherwise calculating massive stacks would be huge trouble). Its totally for TripleA I just wanted to learn with these unit set up, would air units be underpowered/overpowered or balanced?

The current unit set up like this (still progressing);

I have found it on eBay at decent prices…the WW1 1914 on the other hand is a little pricey($275)

Med supply. Malta. I like if any axis ship between Malta and Gib blocks this

Anzac had guys in Egypt.

China building tanks based on a US tank or 2 in China at end of war should be a no go.
Keep in mind this game your playing isn’t a lot like mine. Just feel NOs should have some type of resources on them to get. IMO
Just me. Not knocking your ideas. Try them first. You guys may like them

@AlphaKappa:

I’d be interested.  I’m pretty handy with the Adobe suite.  Want to post a sketch of what you envision?

Thanks, I’ll send something on the weekend.

Just to follow up: this picture from knp7765’s sculpt evolution post…

…has a shot of a Anniversary British BBs next to its 1942 counterpart that gives a good idea of the size difference.
