      @WILD:

      @SS:

      Maybe I missed it, but is there a 39 setup ? Or do you use the 36 setup but just jump to 39 ?

      All they have ready right now is the 36 set-up, Coach (HGB) said they’ll have the 39 set-up out in a couple weeks (which hopefully means by the end of the month). Still waiting on the Anz Nation Ref Sheet BTW.

      I have started to setup the units on my map (bought the 4’ x 8’), and it looks awesome. You get two, 2 sided battle boards (attack/def on opposite sides) and they are much bigger then I expected (6.5" x 20"), so there won’t be any problem fitting units on it. The tech, production, and build boards are also large and top notch too. All the player aids are made of vinyl so they won’t peel or crack like the card board ones.

      I have the main powers set-up, and once I get some of the neutrals done (scavenging for units) l will try to post some pics.

      I sent a link with all the downloads, if you did not receive it, email me at doug@historicalboardgaming dot com and I will send you the link.
      Thanks

      @WILD:

      @John:

      How many pages, should there be in total? There were 63 pages of rules, and I have 50 pages of the setup, minus Anzac.

      Is this what every one else has?

      I have total of 113 pages to be exact.

      Yea that’s what I got 63 rules and 50 other for 113 pages total (no Anz)

      I will send ANZAC tonight.
      We do appreciate any constructive critique, we are working are formatting the reference info even better.
      We will also update and issues with the rules in the near future, we do not want to have updates or fixes every week so we will fix them and then have an updated rules set.

      1936 Rules are available on the website.
      I will email the setups to everybody that pre-ordered the game tonight.
      The Setups will then be a digital download when the game is purchased.
      We are having the setup formatted nicer so i will resend them in a couple weeks, they will resemble the Rules formatting.

      As the greatest generation passes before our eyes, we cannot thank them enough for the freedom they preserved for us. We can never repay them but always thank them. You must be very proud and we are all sorry for your loss. Thank you for all your father has done and we appreciate his service to our country.

      @John:

      @sophiedog2:

      If I already pre ordered does anyone know how and when I will get the rules download?

      November 1st, will probably be the day you can first download the rules on HBG’s website, unless there is a delay.

      You go to your order history, under account, and they will have it there.

      Be sure your logged in first.

      Click where it says download by the day you ordered it.
      This is correct, We hope Nov 1, maybe a day or 2 delay

      That should be all you have to do.

      HBG will let us know when the rules will first be available to download.

      I hope this helps. :-)

      @mike48484:

      Thanks for the answer.

      Are you guys planning to put together a supplemental set like the first global war game?

      IF not, are you planning to stock more of the supplemental set to the first game. It has been “out of stock” for about 8 months now.
      I want this game, but it doesn’t seem to me you can just hop in and play it if I just have AAA global war 40. and id really rather not have to
      search around your site and try to piece together what I need.

      We are making additional pieces for gameplay as well as more markers. Yes, it is a grand game and to have all the pieces to play is a big undertaking. We will try to put a bundle together but we cannot guarantee it will be complete.

      @mike48484:

      HBG…

      Im sort of confused on what you get when you buy global war 2…

      Does is come with units to be able to play the game? I know you need AAA global war 40, but do you also need the supplemental set that was for global 1939?

      It comes with a map, Play aids, and rules.
      You will need to have plastic pieces to play.

      @LHoffman:

      @WILD:

      Is GW2 a traditional turn order based game, or is it all powers simultaneous?

      My impression is that you play in turns as per normal.

      Yes, That is correct

      But it sounds like its losing the KISS affect.

      It is not a basic game, HBG has several on the website for simple, Operation Unthinkable, Operation Hercules, and Amerika are easy games.

      @billcallaway:

      There is a great book to read about companies that take on too much. It’s called “How the Mighty Fall”. Only 1 or 2 great products are needed. 10 or 20 (or in this case it sounds like 50) products just means people lose focus. I’m sure it’s not a money grab because there is too little money to be made on games but if it is clear and makes sense people will buy it and a whole company can explode in sales from a single item. Why not just perfect your 1 or 2 best products instead of taking on more products? You could never find enough time to play test everything if you had a family or job.

      We offer many different games for many different people, we do not expect our customers to buy every game we put out but certain people like certain games.

      Sorry people, we have been very busy trying to finalize Amerika and all the new Global games we have lined out. We have been working on expansions for Amerika and Global. We have actually started researching over 40 expansions for Global War and it will be very neat. Antarctica was my idea but we have plans for it. We had a map artist make us maps for each time period that who owns what, rivers, etc. We then give it to our game artist and he turns it into a game amp with IPP, names, colors, etc This is a huge series with a lot of thought to tie them ALL together if you wish but also playable as a stand alone game.

      Global War Series: Our Global War series consists of interconnected games spanning the time period of 1850-2025.  Players can play any Global War game individually, or connect them together in one monster game where victory in one affects the starting point of the next.  These games consist of both large scale wars (World War I, World War II, and hypothetical wars in 1985 and 2025), and interwar periods where players fight limited conflicts.  As players transition from one game to the next, they upgrade units to new models, and make decisions about how their nation will enter the coming era.
      Global War 1850-1884:  This game takes players through a fascinating time in Global history.  Major Powers of the time are in great competition to secure colonies and natural resources around the globe.  Players engage in colonization, and fight limited scale wars (e.g. American Civil War, Crimean War), and deal with the rise of emerging nation’s states hungry for their share of power.  Victory in this game contributes
      Global War 1885-1913: This game takes players through the final days of the Colonial Period including the intense competition over Africa.  The Russo-Japanese War, Spanish-American war, Boxer Rebellion and other conflicts keep players busy trying to maintain and expand their empires.
      Global War 1914-1918: This is the definitive World War I game.  In this game players will play World War I in the expanded detail provided by our Global War line of games.
      Global War 1919-1935: This game takes players through the inter-war years from the end of World War I to where Global War 1936-1945 begins.  Players will be kept busy with wars in Russia, the Chinese Civil War and others.
      Global War 1928: This fascinating Alternate History game puts World War II on a completely new stage.  A fully described alternative timeline of the world has left almost all major powers roughly equal in power, and in intense competition for global resources.  There are no prescribed alliances, which means players might play different combinations of countries each time and use different strategies to meet their victory objectives.  New playable nations include Spain, Imperial Russia, Qing Dynasty China, the Ottoman Empire, Confederate States of America and others.

      Global War 1936-1945: This is the definitive World War II game featuring greatly expanded rules, a whole new map, and a massive number of planned expansions.  Some unique features of this game include the inclusion of the Comintern as a third Alliance, separate from the Axis and Allies, improved convoy raiding and lease-systems, diplomatic options, multi-stage production and an optional 1936 start date where players can fight the Spanish Civil War and Chinese Civil War.
      Global War 1951-1972: This game is an interwar treatment of the Cold War, where the USA and its allies struggle against the global threat of Communism. Players will fight conflicts such as the Korean War, Vietnam, Arab-Israeli wars as the specter of Global war with the Soviet Union always looms.
      Global War 1985-1991: The Cold War is over, and the impending collapse of the Soviet Union has spurred its leaders to do the unthinkable – launch a massive invasion of Europe.  In this game, players battle US and NATO forces (and their allies around the Globe) against the worldwide threat from the Soviet Union and its Communist backed regimes around the world.
      Global War 1992-2024: Welcome to the Modern World!  This game puts players in charge of modern historical events during the 1990s and 2000s including the Global War on terror, conflicts in Europe and the Middle East and elsewhere.  This interwar game connects the 1991 game to the 2025 game, and lets players vie for Global supremacy in the modern age:
      Global War 2025-2031: After years of rising tensions, the Russian Federation, People’s Republic of China and the Islamic Caliphate launch a global attack on the West and its Allies.  The United States, NATO and the Pacific Coalition (Japan, S. Korea, Australia, Japan and India) fight to beat them back before they destroy the free world.
