Global 40 table

@Lompestein Awesome work! Big thanks for including the .xcf’s and brushes as well, that should help others get a leg-up on their own projects.

An example here is how we fill this one up.
I was formerly playing as Germany, so below is my movements.
For sea zone, we use the same number (Eg from sea zone 93>99)
If transport, we will write 93 > S france(pick up 2 troops) >96 (disembark on Tobruk)
For land, we will just write the name of land (from a to b)
Next we will be marking the troops to move.
If it’s all units in the land to move, we just write “all”
Adding the concept of bidding, you’d get lots of fun when you either evade an attack, or managed to “pin” your enemies.
Hope this helps.

I have been thinking about adding oil resource locations and railway lines

USA 182.657mt* (1 Western United States, 2 Central United States, 3 Eastern United States) USSR 29.700mt (4 Caucasus, 5 Soviet Far East) Venezuela 27.443mt (6 Venezuela) Iran 10.426mt (7 Persia, 8 Northwest Persia)
Dutch East Indies 7.939mt (9 Sumatra, 10 Java, 11 Celebes, 12 Dutch New Guinea) México 6.721 mt (13 Southeast Mexico) Romania 5.764mt (14 Romania) Colombia 3.636mt (15 Colombia) Iraq 3.438mt (16 Iraq) Argentina 2.871mt (17 Argentina) Trinidad 2.844mt (18 West Indias) Perú 1.776mt (19 Perú) Arabian Peninsula 1.652mt (20 Saudi Arabia) Burma 1.088mt (21 Burma) Canadá 1.082mt (22 Alberta Saskatchewan Manitoba) Borneo 0.932mt (23 Borneo) Egypt 0.929mt (24 Alexandria) China 0.050mt (25 Yunnan*)
*All Valor’s are in Millions of Metric tons, for the production of the year 1940, and not contemplate synthetic oil production.
*We considered only locations with production over 0.900mt, for total production of 1940, but allowed Yunnan for valance.

Is this in MS Excel? If so, can you share the file?

Sorry it’s not in Excel.

Excellent work!  I love how it folds up so easily.

Can you email me at trisdin@younggrasshopper.org

This may sound like an improbable source, but another idea would be for you to go to some local dollar stores and look around.  Back when I was making myself a dice tower, I discovered that some dollar store chains sell (among all the miscellaneous stuff they have in stock) some plain unpainted rectangular wooden trays of various sizes, made of very thin wood.  Their designs could not be simpler – a bottom and four sides glued together, all made of flat wooden pieces – and they’re cheap in both price and appearance, but they’re about the right size for what you have in mind and they would probably look quite nice if you applied some dark wood stain to them.  And because they’re so inexpensive, picking up as many as you need for your table would be very affordable.  It would also be easy to customize them by, for example, subdividing the larger models into sections by cutting some balsa wood sticks (or other types of woods) to suitable sizes and gluing them inside the trays before you stain them.

Nice tables guys, something for me to do in the future
