Yeah, well, there’s nothing rose in terms of accuracy. I’m waiting on people’s responses on the accuracy of War Room and Global War before thinking about purchasing them.
Different 1941 from Anniversary
-
Updated this map.
Removed Artillery. Submarines may not submerge.
British begin with 17 IPCs, Germans 15 IPCs, Soviets 14 IPCs, Japanese 10 IPCs, and Americans 19 IPCs
A total of 52 Territories and 39 Sea Zone. Much less than the OOB 1941 map.
Victory Conditions: Capture and hold 1 enemy capital for a whole round to win, this includes Moscow (Soviets will be tough enough, but still beatable).

Starting over like that is goingto take a lot of work.

I made one last modification to the map while you were posting.
I am curious, why would it take a lot of work?
Also, what are your thoughts to the map?
-
You will need a totally revised setup particularly due to IPC changes and Russia.
Being honest the map looks oddly shaped but I do think it will play well with a good setup. I am also curious how will you get this map? Print it out ? -

The map is an edit of the 1941 map that came with the Triple A program, so it does look quite odd, some changes, like Gibraltar and the Himalayas, were done for playability and simplifying the map, no need for so many African territories when only a few are really worth any money.

I agree that East Africa was really never used but make sure you make allocations for the US/UK being able to get to Egypt India and Russia from the Atlantic one space faster.

No allied transports, save for one in the English channel (which will be destroyed), is a good start.
I’ll post a setup chart later today. Japan is really the one that needs the most help here.

No allied transports? Looks like you are really going all out on differences.

Yeah, to reflect the lack of western allied ability to stage any invasion of Nazi occupied Europe and Africa around this time. Besides, the British move first. (Which reminds me, that means no transports period in the setup)
I just noticed I labeled Eastern United States as Western, lol, also labeled Anglo Egyptian Sudan as simply Anglo Egypt Sudan.
