You want the 1936 map! It has the terrain printed on it, and as I understand it, you can use it for a 1939 set up. Really the maps have slight differences. I think the Global War is moving in the direction of the 1936 map. I am trying to justify buying it now. Real question is 36" x 72" (3 ft by 6 ft) or 48" X 72" (4 ft by 8 ft) 1936 map!!! From what I gather if you have the room and are using 3D sculpts for bases, you may want the larger map. :roll:

Hi,
Did a quick read, so far so good. Thumbs for the Foreign Legion. Notice in the set up for Russia that you still have a ’ Lenongrad ’ though :lol:

Need a clarification ref russian partisans.
Can you eliminate them ? Or must you leave an unit in each territories you conquered so that they won’t show up, or can they still exist by themself even if an enemy unit show up on the next turn in that territory etc etc.

Since I can’t post pictures yet, here is a link to a cell picture of my current game showing France and Italia and an empty Germany. France and Italia are not at war, this is turn # 9. Next time I take pictures with a cell, I will try to be more steady.

Rules are being modified to fix problems with factions entering war with each other and moving the game along. Look fir them in a couple weeks.
We appreciate all the feedback! -

Thanks Tigerman77,
After a quick read ( nice to put the changes in red ), here are my remarks, observations and questions.
-
On pg 10 of the rules, under Air units, STRATEGIC BOMBER should be labelled E not C. ( just to prove that I did read the whole thing :-D )
-
In the set up pgs, all of them, in the ORDER of PLAY box, shouldn’t FRANCE be with Russia & comm. China now ?
-
On the ITALY set up, under SPECIAL RULES # 2, the words ’ only if at war ’ are now removed ?
-
On the RUSSIA set up, under SPECIAL RULES # 2, don’t you have to rephrase it to match the new RUSSIA political situation with GERMANY ?
-
A question/clarification ref JAPAN sneak attack about the new 35 IPCs spending instead of 10 inf and 2 transports. Clarify ’ place at the end of turn '. Do you mean to place those 35 IPCs under # 5 of the first impulse with the normal build or at the end of turn after the second impulse ?
-
Noticed the 1 inf increase every 2 turns with pro Axis and pro Allied placed in their capital territories. Which mean the longer you wait to attack them, the stronger they will get, and on the other hand, the stroger they will be when you annex them… Am I wrong ?
-
I saw that you fixed LENINGRAD. :wink:
Guess that’s it for now. Thanks to keep it up and alive.

[/quote]Great. Will wait a few days to see if there will be other suggestions then print the whole thing again, that’s over 30 pgs including the setups. Cheers

are the current charts the ‘go to’ charts that everyone is using? My map will be here soon, just getting ready for it ;)
-
how many games have you guys played and how long did they take?
-
heh, normally my wife and myself play a game over a few weeks / month whenever we can find time to do turns. But this map is going to be that much bigger its going to be hard for us to find space to ‘leave it’ safely (with toddlers wanting to roll dice and play with the boats…)
I’m looking to stick it to a metal sheet and magnetize all the pieces and hang it on a wall in order for it to fit with our living space and needs.
hopefully the vinyl works out for this, will know soon!
-
We are playing this weekend and we are allowing 12 hours, 9am-9pm. 1 hour per turn is a good pace!!
-
Got my map in the mail today, great fast service!
Just gotta figure out if I’m goin to get some wood or metal to sit it on… hmmm

for the first turn or 2, after that you should get a complete game round plus most of another round in 1 hr.
-
TRUE…If you are playing with experienced people. I hope we can get in 12-14 turns in 10-12 hours. Thats my goal!!
