• @i:

    So should I give north east Italy to Austria? About your other comments… well with paint its hard to make big changes to the map (tonnes of effort) but I’ll try. So don’t expect much.

    I understand on the map changes… you can only do what you can do, but it definitely points to the need for a definitive, collaborative WW1 map along the lines of the Global War 1939 map, but with legit, WW1-style boundaries eventually.

    To your question above: I’d say yes.  Rename it Trieste (which saves you some space in that territory to boot) and make it one of Austria’s 2 naval ports, along with Croatia.  It’s a tricky Q, though, because the territory in question also contains Venetia, I think, which WAS a part of Italy at that time…


  • well here what i got for my map I have finaly figured out how to post it in 1 pic :-D so here it is!
    also setup and rule changes.

    French NA
    #4 American pilots: until turn 10 france may buy 1 fighter per turn costing 5 ipcs.

    Romania political rulez
    Romania
    Romania consists of Moldova and Wallachia. On turn 3 Romania is at war with the central powers and if Russia sends any units in there territories they gain control of them.

    Setup change
    Austria
    Trieste: 2 infantry, 1 naval port
    Galicia: 2 infantry, 1 artillery
    Note hungary loses 2 infantry

    Romania
    Wallachia: 2 infantry
    Moldova: 1 infantry, 1 artillery

  • I’d say that that’s a significant improvement right there.  I’d still like to see some of the shapes smoothed out significantly and Romania enlarged a bit, but those would be largely cosmetic changes…

    How difficult would it be to change the French and Italian roundels to standardize them with FMG and/or HBG’s designs?  That would prevent any need for a new set of WW1 roundels.  Russia probably ought to get a new roundel, too, as the “hammer and sickle” is a distinctly Bolshevik symbol… but I imagine that’d be more difficult and introduce a whole new “non-standard” roundel.


  • Well to make a new roundel is really time consoming I could try though. The only reason I didn’t change the Russian one is so it would be standard to FMG and HBGs peaices plus I can’t find a non communist one.


  • Here’s the pic with my horrible roundels I made :cry:

    gay french and italian symbols.JPG


  • Eww, you’re right, those didn’t come out so good… better to go back to the old ones if you can’t get cleaner circles than that…


  • yes with paint.net it takes alot of effort to make nice circles like my other roundles have about a 48+ hours of attempts but i just didnt have time for those ones.


  • I’ll be able to print this when I get home!

    This is pretty much a bump.


  • lolz


  • anyone know of where one can buy AA scale airships?


  • Ask imperious leader I remembering him posting a link to a site that does awhile back.


  • Srry for the late update been on vacation. So here it is.
    NAs
    Russia
    #6russian victories: if Russia hold 5 territories from the central powers on turn 10 they post pone the starting of there surrender roll till they lose 3 original russian territories and have no troops in original central power territories

    France
    #5colonial wealth: Frances convoy is worth 3 ipcs more

    Italy
    #3surprise strike: the first round of every combat the Italians make once they declare war( invalid if there attack before round 4) all there unit fire pre-emptivly

    I’ll post the rest later cause my family getting mad at me!


  • The first rule page have been completly updated
    map update + NAs + setup changes + rules

    NAs
    French
    #6 joint operations: twice per game on the French players turn he may skip his conduct combat and combat move phases so then on the British players turn he can use both French and British units to attack.
    now i only need 3 italian NAs!!!

    Setup changes
    The British Empire:
    Far East Command: 1 infantry, 4 conscripts

    Rule Changes
    Far East Command
    The British may deploy units in the far east command box up to a total of three each turn. From there they can attack Iran and with ships Iraq via the Persian golf. The british player may deploy up to 4 infantry or conscripts and 1 other unit here per turn.

    Neutrals
    Some neutral countrys control multiple regions those countrys are:
    Spain: Northern spain, southern spain and spainish morrocco
    Denmark: denmark, and island
    Sweden: Swenden and lapland
    if you attack 1 region of any of those powers all other ones are considered pro other side.

    Saudia arabia
    is at the start of the game an Ottoman protectorate, so the ottomans may move troops in to saudia arabia and they get the entire ipc value of it.

  • Too many city circles.

    Too many territories and seazones, must be a pain to move anyting, and I bet it takes 20 + houers to finish a game.

    I figure I’ll never play this game


  • thats a useless comment, next time post somthing usefull for me makeing this game or dont post at all, I realy dont care if you dont like it and for the record most games my group and i play take 20+ hours  :roll: its mostly my dad he spends 30 minutes- 90 minutes for each turn!


  • What are the maps full size dimensions?

    Are the countries big enough for 4 tanks, 4 inf and 3 planes?


  • Well the map will be about 24 3/4inches by 44 inches so I hope so.
