    @IKE:

    @ch0senfktard:

    Got the Set-Ups printed out, now I have nice large, easy to read set up cards.
    Beautiful, I love them, thank you so much for making them. Beats having a lame few pages of printer paper with the game set up on them by a long shot.

    Did you make the changes to reflect 2nd edition setups?  There were changes to units.

    Think ya should read the thread title again  :wink:


  • Whoops, I was thinking of the other thread with BCguitar’s set up cards.


  • @knp7765:

    Missed one NO for Germany: +5 IPCs for Axis control of the Caucasus.

    fixed
    @mattsk:

    2.- error on NO chart- Germany "+5iPC: Germany controls Novgorod (Leningrad) "

    fixed

    @knp7765:

    Also, on the Chinese NO symbol, I wondered why you didn’t have the crossed swords and the little Japanese symbol on that one.
    I also noticed none of your US NOs had any Axis symbols. The first and third US NO should have all three Axis symbols in them, the second and fourth should have just Japan’s symbol and the fifth should have Germany and Italy.

    according to the rulebook, there are no specifications about with whom the US is supposed to be at war to gain the advantage of the NO’s

    @mattsk:

    1.- what paper size should i print it on?

    the small charts are 1.5x A6; the two big ones are A3
    @cyanight:

    I was using a NO chart but the problem arises when you count for all the European Axis territories for Russia.  If you can see in my previous post’s photo that we use cards.  I made a card for each possible territory that Russia can take.  The cards seem to work better for us.

    I see the problem… I’d use the grey/green/red chips in this case, but there are certainly advantes with the card system

    @cyanight:

    Thanks for all the work on these. We used them at our last gaming weekend. I put magnetic paper under the charts and glued washers to a few roundels of each power.

    Thank you so much for the pictures! I’m really really happy, somebody has some use for that material ;-)

    I’m happy you enjoy them! Thanks for the comment.


  • These charts are great, I have them printed out and laminated. But we noticed an odd thing, namely that on the order of play sequence France is missing.


  • What do the roundels inside the NO circles represent? Who you have to be at war with?


  • These guides are amazing!  Thank you so much for creating them!

    Sorry to post on an old thread, and I don’t expect the changes to be made but I did notice a few things about the National Objective sheet:

    Missing bonus for Germany: +5 IPC: 1 German Land unit in Axis-Controlled Egypt
    Typo for Germany bonus: +5 IPC: Axis controlled Caucasus
    Typo for Russian bonus: +5 IPC: …no Allied units in original Soviet territories
    Typo for Russian bonus: +3 IPC: Per territory controlled by Soviet Union


  • Wait, where is the NO for the Caucasus? I can’t see it anywhere, but I may be missing it…


  • hello, sorry to dig up an old thread but does anyone have a NO sheet with the corrections above?

    thanks!

    When you open the link in the original post you’ll find the most recent version with most of the changes mentioned. Except for the typos mentioned by iceyinferno.


  • thanks, Tjoek. i have that one and it is missing the 5 IPCs for one german land unit in egypt. easy to remember but id like something that my players can reference and i dont have to remind them of the missing objective.

    i found these that are very purdy but a bit large (2 sheets). ive found only one typo so far - Solomon Islands should read Line Islands on the US Objective.

    edit - it wont let me post links. on boardgame geek, search for axis and allies 1940 europe and click on the file link. look at the files posted by Ghetty called Global Axis National Objectives and Global Allies National Objectives

    Thanks for sharing this bigfruits. (you can start sharing links after you’ve posted a minimum of 10 posts I think).

    Another option for tracking the NO’s is using the card decks from either Young Grasshoper or Siredblood. See their threads for more details:


  • Thank you Spirou. I am using some of the game aides you posted. The NO chart is my favorite of all the ones I’ve seen but i had to go with a different one. If you ever update it and post the link I will. Be very happy to print it.


  • Big fan of your work and printed it a few years ago but found it was missing a few NO. So I read the chat here to see if it was updated and looked over the NO chart to. It has 1 missing NO for German “5 IPCs if at least 1 German land unit is in Axis-controlled Egypt. Theme: Gateway to the Middle East oilfields (high propaganda value).”

    @Cloudesley This looks beautiful and easy to reference; do I assume correctly that you designed these to match the dimensions of the OOB 1940 unit pieces boxes? Will you make these available for download or purchase?


  • @cloudesley love the look and layout. In my opinion, the Germany card is a little confusing with the way the Denmark/Finland/Sweden bonus is set up. It gives the impression that you get 5 for each of those, but it is only 5 if all three of those are met.
