WIll the new roundels be placed under the infantry units?

I agree, split the destroyers for Brazil.

Yes, I think the roundels are too big, I am going to print out the map today and lay it out and see for myself. (48" X96")

I agree with all the “straits” rules you have.
I totally agree with no units in Russia, only lend lease.
I hate when Japan boogies towards Moscow, I agree, they need to have their hands full in the Pacific, with Oil rules and lesser values for them to land grab in Asia, it will chnage their thinking.
I like the changes in tank values, both Japan & Italy had no more than medium tank but mainly a light tank compared to the other countries.

OK, change in colors.

France - Blue
Free French - Sky Blue
Vichy - Use the Blue again after France falls for the Vichy.
Pro Axis Neutrals - Dark grey (not Panzer Grey)
Pro Allied Neutrals - Light Olive green
Neutrals - White

What type of neutral is Mongolia?

Well, off white or cream for Finland, since the neutrals are white, I was staying away from that color, the light grey for pro axis neutral ate a color off the Germans, the light green. , a shade off the Americans, I am still using panzer grey for Vichy France, and two different blues for the French, orange for the Dutch, matches neutral roundel, I am going to use the light maroon Russians from Europe for Mongolia (are they a stand alone neutral or pro someone?)

I have made additional armies for this game and need to paint them so I can try this scenario. I need to print out the map also.

I used Yellow for Romania, light grey for Hungary, Dark green for Bulgaria, and Maroon for Finland.
But I am going to change a few colors, still thinking about it.

French - Blue
Free french - Lt. Blue
Vichy French - Dark Grey
Dutch - Orange
Neutrals - White
Allied Neutrals - Lt. green
Pro Axis Neutrals - Lt. Grey
Mongolia - ??

@finnman:

what would you recommend I use for these new powers. I have AA 1942 AA pacific 1940 and risk

I use German units painted a different color for the Axis Minors and
American units painted white for Neutrals

What is wrong with the cruisers?

No , I was thinking that the roundels are kind if large. What size diameter are they when the map is 36x 72?

IL, is this the final version of the map , or are you taking critique for the map?

Should I change the Canadian Roundel to this?

Too bad the Elefants could not fight with the T34’s at short range, and no machine gun to warrant off all the Russian Infantry.

I have IPC’s, chips, and Dice.
Email me

I have the Revised, but do not know if I want to part it out.

Yes, Hitler’s idea or" “Hitler’s last gamble”
I love the Panther, their 75L70 was a high velocity gun, they were fast, well armored.

@Imperious:

What color would you paint AA pieces for:

Finland? Black (if you do not use black germans)
Romania? Yellow
Hungary? (green)
Bulgaria? (green blue)

Spain? neytral grey
Turkey? Sand

Dutch? Orange

It depends on your overall color scheme for the rest of you pieces.
Are you using OOB color for other nations or custom painting them too?

@Brain:

Where are the Canadian roundels?

They are there, they look like the UK Roundel but with no outer Yellow Band.

IL,
I really want to help with this project!
What can I do?

@Imperious:

try this. I checked it and it works.

It Works!
Nice map!
Now how do you play?

How many of each kind of figure do you get?

@Imperious:

the link is now fixed. Make sure you got Adobe 9.3

I am still getting that error after update Adobe with the Final version.

First of all let me say, you did a great job on the map and your work is greatly appreciated. I will give you some critique since you asked.
I am not a fan on the Australian roundel , it was post 1945 and since you made all the axis minors having prewar roundels I am surprised you did this. I am working on roundels that are more like they used. I know it is your design and I appreciate your work.
Are you going to add Polish roundels and some others.
Great job IL ! I will think about some rule additions.

Again, Very Nice!
