Global War 1940/41

Thanks, I will check ebay first.  What is the difference between version 1 and version 2?  Sorry I play Axis and Allies boardgames but not the Minatures.

@Deaths:

considering War at Sea box cost $15 for 1 rare, 1 uncommon, and 3 commons And around $10 a box for the land Minis, !r, 2x UC  and 5-6 commmons.  You want version 1 vehicles though. Version 2 they are bigger, BUT WILL be easier to collect I think

I would buy “Panzerschiffe” 1/2400 which are smaller than AA Min’s but larger than AAA from the box.
You can get destroyer for $1.50 , cruisers for $3.00 and BB for $5.00
Then paint them what you want.
This is the way I am going.

I am working on the Axis Minors, Toldi tanks, T-26, PZ-38t
I have Dutch ships, Candadian, Australian, as well as France.
It is growing! I am also adding Light tanks to each country so that i will have them as the game progresses.

Thanks for the information, I suck at painting and even if the minitures cost more I think it evens out on time spent on painting or paying someone else to paint it for me.

I can paint, but do not have the time, I will have to pay!  :cry:

Who do you get to paint your pieces?  Is there a service?  Also how much does it cost?

How about some comments on the game play?

where did you get all of those units?

Gameplay was fairly smooth and balanced. USA went with a KJF strat  but Japan was still able to get to Moscow but not in great strenght. russia stalled germany for the majority of the game but if USA had went to europe germany may have fallen for good earlier. leaving japan in russia faster and stronger but alone.

Thanks for the links to the game pieces. A +1 to you.

the pics from the game is awesome. my buddies and are going to test the game today. are you still working on a 1939 version?
what programm did you use to create the map?
i can’t wait to play this!
are you all from the states?

Great pics!

I have played this map many times and it always sets up for a great game.  Recently, I have used the Minor Axis & Allied Powers rules to further enhance the experience.  Again, this map is perfect for this rules extension.

Where is the game going to be played?

Did anyone try the Abattlemap module I made for Axis & Allies Global War? You can use it to play anyone with a dice server.

Wisconsin? You’re name should be Cheese Head, not Deaths Head. Just kidding. :-D

I would love to play, but I am a long ways away.

I would love though to see pictures of the game after each turn with some commentary.
