I’m setting it in the mid-1950s / Late
Experimenting with it and making I can get some ideas from y’all
OK, you’re using the 1940 map, so I’m wondering - are you keeping the basic framework of A&A play as well, research and purchase first, then combat move, resolve combat, noncombat move, place new units and collect income?
Do you have a link to this 1942 Cold War game ?
So is this kinda going to be your setup ? I was looking at another game. I think that has more influence on territories but haven’t seen it all what’s in game.
There was a game that attempted to do exactly what you’re asking for. It was called East & West, Global War in 1948. While it’s not sold anymore, looking into what all they did may help you in your quest.

It’s a very cool idea, but a major task. Also, it kind of stretches quite far away from the pretty straight-forward A&A-mechanic of building units and rolling dice. In this Cold War there seems to be a lot more emphasis on diplomacy and events. Not saying it’s bad, but likely it will be a very different game from A&A in the end. Perhaps it should start off as such?
