Bob_A_Mickelson's AAG40 National Production/Objectives and Setup Charts

Also, is it possible to change the format? For some reason, i can’t print JPG’s

Sorry, I have them in PNG. How can i convert to jpg, which I can print?

@Bob_A_Mickelson:

you should download the complete zip file which has them in png format and is clearer. If you want them to print in 8.5 x 11 Simply open them in “windows photo viewer”. Select paper size as 8.5 x 11 then print. you should select 11" x 17" for the national production chart.

converting to jpeg is a bad idea as it will blur the image. Just about any photo editing program can convert them to jpeg. the easist (not necessarly the best) method would be to open the files in paint then click “file” , “save as” then click the drop down menu and select Jpeg. click “save”

P.S. converting to bitmap is better since you wont lose quality.

So, how do I open with “windows photo viewer”?

Are there printers that can handle 11"x17"?

@Bob_A_Mickelson:

right click on the file and select “open with” then click windows image viewer. 11"x17" is a standard size of paper known as ledger. any professional printers (and upper end home printers) have the capability of printing this size. Worse case scenario: go to kinkos and pay a little extra for them to print it.

Thanks

Bob,

First, thank you very much!  These are great.  I found one minor typo in the UK setup chart.

“If London is captured by and Axis power, that power will received the United Kingdom’s player’s unspent Europe IPCs only.  If Calcutta is captured by an Axis power, that power will received the United Kingdom’s player’s unspent Pacific IPCs only.”  Emphasis are mine.

You should conjugate both as “that power will receive” using the future tense.  Thanks again!

Is it possible for me to change them so that the setup charts have the alpha setup instead of the OOB setup?

@Bob_A_Mickelson:

I’d rather not release my source material. There will be alpha setup charts when larry makes it official. Be patient. If you guys want the alpha setup sooner help larry by playing the setup and posting your observations at his website:

The sooner Larry (with your help) gets the setup gets balanced the sooner i will release the charts.

Since you don’t want to release the alpha setup charts yet, I assume you did not post this: http://www.boardgamegeek.com/filepage/59390/global-1940-setup-cards

Thank you for the work !

I have laminated the Global charts and aids v2.2 which of these should I replace with these new ones?

is it maybe possible for you to post an unofficial version of the current alpha setup charts? that way the people who do want to wait for the setup to be finalised can still wait patiently but the impatient people can just get a quick alpha copy because who knows when the setup will be finalised. i mean its a win-win situation, and if the impatient people find that the balance isnt good because they didnt wait for it to be finalised then its their own fault and they are the ones who suffer, the rest wouldnt have anything to lose by you releasing an unofficial version of the alpha setup charts, and the people who had the unofficial charts if it suits them then they can just let it be but if it doesnt they can still wait for the official version. at least that way they can have a version of alpha even if not final but still resembling the final version to play with instead of the original mistake filled setup and not have to constantly check the progress of the finalisation on the internet

i dont want to sound demanding but have you ever considered having a 5 or 10 ipc bonus NO for japan for not entering the war? the reasons are immense and i have seen that suggestion in many places. i can understand if you dont want to because its not official and stuff but once again its ok to release unofficial ones if you think the reasons are good. if you have other reasons not to do it such as time i can understand too

There are unofficial ones which I linked to above, but they have been plagarized from Bob’s work.

yeah but i dont want to use plagarised stuff and the font is bad. plus its only for global

the global national production chart requires an A3 page, how about the rest? can they fit on an A4 page? how many setup and global diplomacy charts can fit on an A3?
