I based off what they pretty much had at peak of war. I didn’t do the 1 piece equals so many. I just made it like Uk 6 BB and spread them out. US I had 7 BB but reduced it to 5. 4 damaged in Hawaii at start of game. If it had like real 4 light cruisers and 2 h cruisers I just made that 2 normal cruisers and 2 more normal cruisers. To eliminate the 3 diff pieces. Everything else straight up with tweaks to setup as we played the game.
Yes the eastern front setup is more like spring of 41 than dec. 41 like pac is. based on the game balance and timing to work
Out. As u see the battle of the Atlantic is at its peak too. More like dec 41 there. Only issue in most games if not all is the d day invasions. Most happen before June of 44 in all games but to get correct US wouldn’t attack Europe until turn 7 or 8 with torch happening sooner
That would be a major setup change and year of turns.
I have my own map for game too.
Global War -1936-1939-1942

Here is a peek on what we are doing.
Please!!!
The Units have not been finalized, we are working every day on this. We look at unit, how it looks on the board, is it unique enough from the previous and following unit. We want them to be easily recognized and historical as much as we can and keep it playable.
I repeat, they are not finalized. -
Finalized or not, I buy them anyway :-D

Very nice!

Coach,
Those are awesome, looking forward to what time line and progression you will use for bombers, tanks, warships, artillery and the infantry.
You haven’t even sold or created the first set of these yet, but I am in on this one. This looks like a possible Kickstarter cannidate. :-D :-D :-D :-D

I thought Island Warfare was the first Global Expansion set coming.
It was, but maybe they decided to do it later, and postpone it till the time is right. They obviously have a plan in place. :-)
-
will it be a boxed game, or a map with expansions?

It will be a map, in two sizes, with expansions to follow it. :-D

thanks

Would it be reasonable to expect a release date before Christmas 2014?

No, Coach says maybe February, but more likely a little later. I’m sure when it gets closer to time, he will tell us. You are talking about the new map, right? :-)
-
Alright thank you. I’ve saved up enough money to purchase global 1939, and was wondering if I should hold off for this map and i gladly will
-
I will be March or April.

**––It’s my guess that HBG might be changing the units included in their
“Island Warfare” set. I hope it might now include an
APD “Fast Attack Transport”, too. We’ll know soon enough.

(read ECSTATIC!) with the products that they’re able to bring to the market, whenever they are able to do so.Tall Paul**

Will there be a supplement set similar to the one for the current global 1939?

Where can the most recent rules for Global '39 be found?
Thanks.

Thanks.
Go to main menu, and then go under the sub menu of Global Warfare. Then you want to go to the thread that says rules 7.2 and 7.1 and go to the second post of that thread. There is a link for the latest rules there.
I would provide you link, but don’t know how to do that.
I hope that helps! :-)

Thank you. In the end I found it by googling it. I have to admit they are very hard to find. Maybe it’s an idea for HBG to place the most recent version on BGG and on Axis and Allies.org in an easy to find place.

Normally they do, but this was never finalized. otherwise, it would be on BGG and axisandallies.org, by now.
