Map size….

@ghr2:

You should definitely get some sort of protective layer for that map.

I’m going to at some point. Until, I get a permanent place to play, it is rolled up in a cylinder tube. I’m going to have a man cave built, and then I will work on things like that. I’m going to have to either buy or have someone build me a table to fit the map. This is the plan, anyway. :-)

Probably Confederate infantry attire would strongly resemble British or French kit, to include either the Adrian, or, even more likely, the Brodie helmet.

One imagines that the Union would take its cues from the Germans, or, even more likely, the Russians, meaning either no helmet, or else some version of the stahlhlem. It’s also possible that one might see a distinctive steel hat more akin to the M1, or even a kind of “stovepipe” or “top hat” in steel.

I’m trying hard to think up certain National Advantages. Perhaps Confederate cavalry would be able to execute a kind of blitzkrieg. Would it be likely that a nation without much native automobile production, but having to cover a long border with a relatively small standing army, would develop a heavy emphasis on motorization?

As early as Bull Run, both armies were learning the military value of railroads.

@stevan_avalon Asking the same question. Reminds me of World Conqueror and the hundreds of games just like it. A&A rules would be very cool and yes i have seen people make hex-based maps for A&A before :flushed: :grin: it was on Reddit one time and it was beautiful

Couldn’t you also sell the electronic files (also for Global War 1939) as you do for other custom maps? Or are you afraid that those files are shared?

@BrentStoudtKY said in Setup on ILs eastern front map:

Love the map, wish rules were more extensive.
How many oil tokens does USSR and Germany start with…
Cost to buy additional token.
Oil token each turn or each attack during turn…?
After CA mission can fighters attack or just fly back during non-combat…

This is a really old game. I don’t remember the oil rules. Do you have a link on where you got the rules? HBG?

The territories are intentionally squared off as part of the “look” I was going for. Wanted to give it a modern, almost sci-fi feel to it since it depicts a conflict that never actually happened.

The green territories represent US “landing areas” in a way. Places where new US units may be placed after purchase simulating safe landing areas for reinforcements from the mainland. Grey are NATO nations, brown Russia, orange Pact, and light tan neutral.

@Gargantua:

Does anyone have a copy of the map?

I would also like to have a copy. Anyone?

Right you cant have image posted directly w/o a link. We don’t need porn on this site so we decline to allow this type of situation from developing
