Is one color for Europe 1940 and the other color for Pacific 1940?

I have no idea beyond the guess I previously made, which evidently was wrong. My primary interest is the A&A sculpts, so I’ve never paid close attention to the cardboard chips; somewone more knowledgable about A&A game history than me will have to provide an answer to your question.

Who would that be?

Welcome CraneDeNicollo.  My friend got me started on Global 1940.  I have also started playing Global 1939 which is a very complicated game but plays like Global 1940 with slight rules variations.  Recently, my ten year old grand daughter took a real interest in the game and my friend suggested the 1942 second edition version.  It was simpler but still a real challenge.  I have one a game against my teacher in the Global 1940 so I felt some what confident as I entered the game but soon found myself scrambling to just survive as my grand daughter lead Germany in a global tear.  She says she wants to be President some day…God help her enemies if she makes it.  Now she plays the ANZACS and China in the Global 1940 game pretty much on her own.  Both games are great but her trouncing of her grandpa in the 1942 games have inspired her to learn more.  If you are wanting to gain experience and learn stratagies, I recommend 1942 to start with.

Yes, you are right, it’s genitive. But “Wehrmacht” is -female-: die Wehrmacht. As for this, the genitive “der” is always used  :-)

Nice poem, i have the book in german :-)

@Imperious:

AA42 costs like $20 bucks and you get chips and dice. cheapest way to go.

Where you get it for $20?  I payed $30 at Target.

I have more trouble picking up the country markers from the board than I do pieces.  But if I’m hopped up on demerol and grape soda then sometimes my fingers shake while placing a stack of chips with units on top and knock things over… but thats usually just in the capital cities where a lot of pieces are.  Now I use the number markers… so much easier!

Kind of nice for Japan FIG transfer to Germany as well, and to German “overflight” SBR’s where the BOM goes back and forth from Germany to Yakut (due to strong, and often AA covered positions in Karelia)

anything you buy must ALWAYS be place at a territory with an IC in it

Good old Alex! He new Russian Communism.
He new Russian Communism wasn’t True Communism,
and he knew it very well! - another great Xiuote

Be careful where you start drawing the line. The USSR still had hope in it in the 1920’s. But after the rise of the Rightist Stalinist, the breech had happened.
