This is the map we played on for over 3 years with tweaks to map as we played. This is Deathheads map. The confusion is people think this is HBG 39 map and it’s not. HBG took this map template and changed some things on it and made it there 39 global map.
The map on next page is my redesign to fit my 41 game and just cleaned it up. Took over 80 hours and still be a tweak here and there.
A map is never done. Plus a change or 2 will happen on game play over the course of time.
Thank You Deathheads for your map template !

Krasnoyarsk

Nice idea. But in the OOB map, that will be in Yakut SSR. Maybe if the Soviet player spends 1 IPC to move the unit spawn, from Soviet Far East to Yakut SSR. We can play test your idea this December

A friend is interesting in some form of implementation of Siberian RAIL road, in our mod. I know you have one, we need to look for it.

Ya Yakut was a landing spot to refuel planes on there journey. Yes The railroad should be there plus Mongolians were Pro Russia. I have a rule for those’s if interested in it. Just giving you ideas here.

3 x 6 map with trays on all sides give you what Barnee said 4’ sides 3’ 3" ends.
With dice boxes being 16" wide instead of 20".

The map is 4x8 feet think 121 cm x 243 cm

Yes. Better looking. It’s like nite and day. The pieces will stand out more. Got to see what setup looks like

Hey if you feel doing all that editing is no problem then go for it. I was looking at KISS.
My thoughts are just try and keep it simpler if possible.

For being to strong active at capitals u can adjust pay and AD values. Base it on how many does each country actually buys and used each.

Maybe I don’t know what I’m doing. Lol
Best I butt out of this discussion based on I don’t know what u can and can’t in triple a.
As you know I play and test many different rules and pieces in games.

You doing a great job barnee !!

Hey easy ! Lol. Here’s Europe setup if anybody cares to look at.

If you click on picture you’ll get a better look.

@the-captain which do you like better for Russian Tank General ?

Here’s the standard one

The red dot one. If you can see it. Blue dot tank looks like it got a wts.

Here is after 8 turns.

Raspituta season kept Germany from moving 2 spaces to 1 and Russia held Stalingrad. This side is a stall or stalemate based on 2 turns left in game.
Japan held Hawaii but lost Hong Kong so now they are at 29 points. 1 less for a win. Rolled out battles thinking axis won but no not yet.
Japan probably take back Manila and US takes back Hawaii and probably end up with a Allies win.
Got to finally see if Russia could hold there own after losing Moscow. Great action there.
Pacific awesome now. US had 6 3 island group NA worth 30 icps because Japan went for Calcutta and abandon the area. So US came out and hit all the islands they took back just like real war.
Ok. Next pic is setup on new map. Another game starting Wednesday.

We play Uk 1 inf or art can use the hump from Assam to Yunnan if China controls Yunnan.

You could have roll a 1 and it blocks the piece based on lost planes.
