I’ve started work on some low cost customization for Europe 1940 2nd edition (and will include pacific 1940 2nd edition when I get it). I was able to get some player aids from https://www.axisandallies.org/forums/topic/21752/game-aids-a-a-1940-global-2nd-edition. I’m also going to implement a resource system into the game, that will introduce resource costs for units (such as steel to buy tanks). Also, there will be an upkeep cost for units, eg: Each tank you have mobilized will cost a certain amount of oil per turn. This is to make the game more realistic, and to discourage unit spamming. I also plan to add more units to the game. That’s all for now
Cyanight's Customizations

You are exactly correct John. Its BEST if the piece has no paint on it yet. I have damaged many pieces that I had to repaint. All of my posts for China, and Italy so far are with pieces I painted and then added the magnet. I use a metal vice and put wax paper in the sides to cushion the piece and prevent the pant from wearing off. Your pieces have way more detail then mine. When I initially painted my set I was under pressure to complete before a gaming date we had planned. So I chose to paint them with less detail except for the planes. I do plan to revisit them someday but I still have over 1000 magnets to install. I finished ANZAC this weekend and will be doing Russia next.

That is what I thought. Thanks for the info.

Hey John,
I got a message from HBG that they sent my pieces. The only problem is the order number that was sent was in reference to my US expansion pre-order set, lol. At first I was going to applaud them for speed but we obviously know this was a mistake. I wonder what is coming in the mail now, lol
-
Well, I hope it is the British set you are getting. I live only 3 1/2 hours away, but usually am at the end of the line before I get mine. I probably get mine the first of October, LOL.
As long as I get them, that is all I care, but it would be nice to get them to my painter sooner than later. :-)
PS We are tied on post count, LOL.

ANZAC is finished and ready for war. Now onto the Soviets :)

Wow Cyanight, those are very cool.
Is that kangaroo roundel an official for Anzac as well?
Is that on all your pieces, because I couldn’t tell?
I love the camo of your tanks and planes. :-D
-
Its the roundel for Australia
The New Zealand looks like this
I put the Kangaroo on all pieces except… Battleships have flags and Destroyers, Transports, Submarines, AAA guns are without roundels. In the picture I don’t have the roundels on the base of the Artillery like I do with the Infantry. I fixed it last night but did not take another picture.
Thanks again John :)
Now on to the Red Army…

Yes, I can’t wait to see them. :-D

Cyanight, where did you get that national production ipc chart that is over 100?
The biggest I have is 72 from the Anniversary Game and is it metal, I’m assuming?

I got it off this site.

Great job on the Japanese Cyanight! I like how you have chosen all the nagato battleships but just have the ONE Yamato ! I have done the same in my game ! Makes that one piece extra special!
