• 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.

    Hello all

    I am going to try and set up another game in late Nov. or early Dec.  Hit me up if you are interested.


  • 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.

    @Brain:

    Where is the game going to be played?

    Wisconsin


  • 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.

    I will,

    Did you convert the map to AAA yet?


  • Not yet. My home PC died on me shortly after our game and have been without a computer for almost two months now. I am getting a replacement here in the begining of December and will be back to working on maps.


  • Greetings.

    I’ve read through this thread and came to the conclusion that I’d like to get a print out of this board.

    What is the recommended printing size for someone who intends to use standard AA size figures? Axis & Allies Miniatures look a bit too… well I just don’t like the idea of using them, and I have so many copies of various AA board games editions that there’s more than enough plastic to fill this map.

    What would be a good recommended PRACTICAL printing size?

    Thanks,
    Starke.

    PS - What is the most current and up to date version of this map, and where can I obtain it? Is there a PDF version?


  • ONE MORE QUESTION:

    I’ve been browsing through this thread, and I want a quick clarification: Are the setups listed on the first post the ones I should use? There seems to be an awful lot of “don’t put Factory on Hawaii” or “Where are the setups?”.

    Is there a clear and concise list of the setups that I can just print off and start having a mess around with?


  • bump… anyone there?

    Hey whats up.

    ok if you want  to use the Standard AA pieces, which also the size used in play testing is
    15 sq ft. 62-68 inches in length and roughly 34-36 tall. I am not sure of the exact size.

    the file posted on the first thread is the most up to date map available and i believe is already the size used with the standard AA Pieces. This is the Practical size.

    The set up charts do have a few oops I forgots, but they are mentioned in notes.

    The Neutral chart you can use, just x2 the units the the territory from chart.

    No their is no perfect setups. All the Actual units on the map for each country are correct. the only ones that have changed are IC’s. And I believe each is listed if any change was needed.

    I have both sizes and I recommend plexiglass for an overlay. will protect your map. when stored roll the printed side in.

    My friend actually does the graphical changes to the charts because I lack the proper programs to do it.


  • Thank you Deaths Head 420!

    I don’t know if you’ve ever played the game “Hearts of Iron”, but your map reminds me of a lite version of it in AA form: it allows so much freedom of movement and multitude of strategy.

    Excellent design and concept and flawless presentation.

    Look forward to playing a game in the coming fortnight  :mrgreen:


  • Started the process of getting this map printed.

    I will be having:

    1 off 1727mm  (68in)  x  812.8mm  (32in) print mounted on 12mm MDF, edges painted black.

    Will post photos as soon as it arrives and is set up  8-)


  • How much is that map going to cost?  What company/service are you using?
