G40 National Objective card deck accessory

@Young:

AAAHHH… my bad, Danish Straits it shall be. hope you don’t think I was bieng an A55, I respect and look forward to all your input, as you are my favorite A&A.org historian.

No problem.  I’ve seen enough war movies to understand the principle that artistic license sometimes has to take priority over strict historical accuracy, and I respect that.  When I point out (potential) issues that have caught my attention, it’s not with the aim of convincing you to change a particular house rule detail (after all, your rules are yours to do with as you please) but just to make sure you’re aware of something that might simply be an oversight rather than an intentional artistic compromise.  If it bothered me to have some of these sugggestions turned down, I wouldn’t be taking the trouble to make them in the first place.

Amusing footnote: I once head a military historian complain that it can negatively impact one’s career to agree to be a consultant for a movie because the following happens frequently:  Professor So-and-so agrees to be the historical consultant for a military-themed movie.  He reviews the script, finds a bunch of errors (both subtle and outrageous) and points them out to the director.  The director replies, “Well, yes, you’re right, but cinematically it would be more effective and exciting to leave the script as it is.”  The movie gets shot according to the script, and then gets released.  All the historians and history buffs in the audience groan at the mistakes, then notice that the end credits say “Historical Consultant: Professor So-and-so”, and they conclude that Professor So-and-so is an incompetent historian.

Could use Scandinavian Peninsula NO

Hi,

We use these. I made them after I saw one of your videos and couldn’t find any NO-cards for the second edition for download. www#mediafire#com/download/7dtxrwxnbe0n2pe/A&A_NO_pdf.tar.gz

We also use War Cards to show whos in war with who: www#mediafire#com/download/oeby87i8esm122e/A&A_G40_War_Cards_-_pdf.tar.gz (replace the #s with dots (.))

Also since we haven’t played the game much, I wanted to create a “briefing file” for every country, with a overview/list of the National objectives which is a bit more visual than the lists in the manual.

2 Londons?

It worked for me don’t forget to delete the two # and replace with .

Hey NilOGrav great work I love them. I printed one out in A4 size and it seems too large, what size are they made for just to save me some time experimenting. Thanks

Hi Stormtrooper,

Thanks for the compliment, glad you liked them.

They are supposed to be printed on A6 (quarter of A4), although they are designed on A5. But that was for convenience during the process of creating them.

There are some minor errors though, which I will be correcting:

• The German title Oberfellherr is non-existent and will be changed to Feldmarschall or Generalfeldmarschall, depends on the length of the line.
• The 6 IPC text of the Chinese NO has the same color as 5 IPC text on other cards.
• Some pictures are strechted to the edges of the paper and have to be aligned to the maximum margins and the white border has to be cut off.

BTW use them anyway you like, the original files are included as well (www#mediafire#com/download/zcjf495wirizjrb/A&A_NO_odt.tar.gz and again replace # with .)
