Custom HBG and Axis and Allies map overlays and modifications

@superbattleshipyamato said in A&A: The Blockgame? (Axis and Allies Eurotrash Variant):

@all-encompassing-goose

I don’t get that last part though. So tipping them down shows the unit and the number of units is shown on the side facing the opponent?

Yup

@Midnight_Reaper Thank you for the reply.

First 2 games were with the Norse pieces but me and the friends are looking into making a few zombie rule changes with the Norse pieces.

Coach and Variable.

We.re seeing a lot of new markers etc. coming out of HBG lately (good work by the way). Are the HBG optional rules going to be updated to reflect the new stuff? (e.g. flak towers, bunkers, blockhouses etc.)

The group I play with is integrating some the new rules and markers into our game. We like rail and will be using minefields (naval too) next game––if they come in time.

No apologies needed! FMG has been a great help in carrying the product and getting it to folks like you. They need to be thanked too! Glad you asked about the rules and let us know what you think.

I want to know what else keeps the game exciting the first few rounds besides the sino-japanese war.

Like what kind of options do the allies have to interfere with Japanese expansion early in the game?

Whoa! A new Spanish Civil War, but the map in color? YES!!!

Can we pre-order?

I am going to go over the entire SCW game that I have from you (2nd + 3rd editions) and will shoot you off some recommendations.

Well I have at last finished (sort of) a map for A&A Europe that I am happy with (Hey it took only 17 years and was started even bfore there was a A&A Europe :lol: ) It is I can say quite nice I worked on expanding a 1 inch by inch square area to a 1 and 1 half inch square area effectively doubling the size of the map. For example Canada is now four territories (Ontario, manitoba, Quebec and the Maritimes (Which is actually an island group)). meanwhile the German player has to deicde if he will move toward the economic heartland of Russia or toward Moscow. I decided to keep the original values for the territories hence alot of empty spaces with no value except for getting you where you want to go. Further this put them in somthing resembling original geographic positions (For example Solvokia is the industrial heatland of Czecheslovakia (now two territories))

Now I am ready to turn my attention to Conquest of the Empire I was wondering if it was up to you what would you import into the game from the new A&A series. I was thinking of either using the convoy system or the Supply line introduced in A&A Pacific to represent things such as the Egyptian grain convoys. Any suggestions?
