Me and my friend having been playing this map and setup but have switched to AA50 rules and made the China units into Chinese like in AA50… I made a modules of this game for Abattlemap and have updated it and fix the convoys… here is a link to the next update www.axisandallies.us/G11.gim.zip

To use this module you need abattlemap 0.80 which can be found at www.flames-of-europe.de You first install the 0.79 version at that site and download the Pacific 1940 module which also includes an update to the abattlemap. Let me know if anyone wants to use this module and needs help installing it.

Convoy’s in this game: Do each power start out already collecting its convoy? Such as the Soviet Convoy for 4 IPC… so Russia counts that in the collect income phase or do they need to do something first to the convoy?

Nice effort!

I’m ok with all the NO’s being in one spot… if not thats ok too.

No automatic stuff… thats ok too.

I like the natural look of the maps… whatever is easy on the eyes. I like the point of unit color and map color working well together to quickly and easy to make out what the units are and how many etc.

I can tell its going to be an awesome module!

1. I like auto if at all possible… as long as no conflicts
2. I like both idea’s… gotta choose one… so I pick on the map.

I would like the bonus to all be automatically added up on the “InfoView” with the Sum being the total. Having a nice area to track of all the bonuses might actually be nice… as this is how they are kept on the actual hard copy game the the dining table… and all players can quickly calculate which bonuses they are missing out on or the enemy currently has… a one stop shop for everthing bonus… I also see the reason to put them around the map like we see in AA50 module… it frees up the space that would otherwise be needed off the map. No wrong answer on where you put them… but avoiding any manual bonus tracking if possible will be awesome!

After looking at the AA50 module… I realized I’ve got used to the bonuses being near where they are earned or accomplished… so this is good too… both sound good. I’ll leave this one to you Stoney… you are the designer… you’ll have to make it the way you like it.

I’d like to see a new rule book pdf made once all the errors are fix etc… something easy to read like LHTR for Revised… instead of having to read the out of the box rules and then come back the errata to compare… just have a most up to date rule book available without all the fancy photos etc… clean and fast to read.

I’m no good when it comes to making it look good etc… any simple task you think I can handle let me know.

Do you have a link to downloand the 0.80+ version? I can only find 0.80

**I got it… just needed the P40 installed.

This is Great! Excellent work!

I’ve been having trouble with my Toolbar in 0.80… it disappears… got any fix for that? I’m using Windows Vista… never had the trouble until now.

Has anyone used this module www.axisandallies.us/G10.gim.zip for this game? Does it need to be updated? Let me know.

Hey Stoney! Good job on the modules! I haven’t looked but have you updated or added to the tutorial for making modules? Feel free to add the next chapter to the knowledge base for everyone to find and use etc. Thanks!

Yeah, I didn’t notice anything different in .80. His module worked under .79 but as you say maybe he changed something for the future.

Hi, Did you figure out how to get it to work without crashing? I don’t know everything… I figured it out by tinkering with it and translating the Germany text and looking at modules made by others.

Atti has a first draft of the module for AP40 for ABattlemap at http://www.flames-of-europe.de/modules.php?name=Downloads&d_op=getit&lid=107

Did anyone try the Abattlemap module I made for Axis & Allies Global War? You can use it to play anyone with a dice server.

Made a ABattlemap module of the 1939 map

Try it out http://www.axisandallies.us/AHE.gim.zip download and unzip into your Abattlemap folder with your other .gim folders and reopen Abattlemap.

Granted I’ve never played this game/map etc… so any suggestions to make the module better?

@Brain:

And I too would like the us to be have 2 incomes one for the Pacific and one for the Atlantic theatres.

I think forcing the USA to split the incomes would go against what I think Larry Harris A&A Idea is… I think the official rules will let you combine the US money in some way… USA money is USA money. I do think the game play won’t give you much wiggle room to shift all the income one way or another.

FMG, I hope you do make some money! People who take risk should be able to receive the reward. Will you be allowing others to sell your units as part of a game they developed… so they don’t have to do all this mold stuff?
