Global War 1940/41

@Deaths:

thanks for saying something.  i will see if I can dig up the disk

i downloaded the pic of the map. it looks great!!! is there an official 1939 version of this game? what kind of units do you use for the italians?
keep up the good work.

To be perfectly honest, I love this map
you get me a file i can bring to kinkos and get printed in good quality, ill playtest it till the cows come home.

I have some Jpegs of it, a few errors, and id prefer less stock photos in the water and such, and perhaps some other fixes…wake? why is it japanese in 1940~? Names etc.
But all in all the best large map avalable

Hi , could you update the map and set up charts for all including neutrals and unit info for AA 50 ? (victory cities , new unit stats on purchase area chart  , and perhaps add in turn sequence for factions in the two different scenarios 41 / 42 , like what IL did etc) thanks lol

some thoughts :

1. Also would be nice to add in some more “channels” for blocking sea zones , denmark will block SZ 18 if you dont have it , Gibraltar blcok SZ 36 , Mayala will block SZ 70

2. Northern Ireland should separate with the rest of Ireland as British has it (different land zone)  to be added , and maybe add in whales on England

3. 4 different land parts for mainland japan ? it is thier tradition for calling themselves 4 states lol

4. few northern areas in china for Communist china ? perhaps new rules for working with nationalist china (but Soviets will help CC)

5. Yugoslavia , Germany actually had some areas for Italy on the coastal areas linking it to Greece didnht it ? maybe splitting that area into two ?

6. add Portugal as neutral (but also will join Germany if under allies attack)

7. Argentina will join Axis if under attack ? (since they were very shifting towards Germany at the time ,) Brizil might join US under attack ?

8 ) Mongolia joining allies if under attack ?

9. Switzerland and Afghanistan joins allies if under attack

10. That little island next to Vladivostok and in SZ 134 was half owned by japan before the war , only given to soviets after it , so maybe making it into separate zone with two parts ? it was a very strategic position lol

11. lyberia was a puppet state for US wasnt it ? should go to Allies once attacked

12. German convey in SZ 18 ? Germnay had to import massive loads of Iron from Sweden at the time

13. British convey inside Suez canal ? its one of the most important supply routs

14. A small chart telling starting IP for each faction in the two scenarios

PS: where can i find the extra house /  game rules to go with the map ? lol

How do the Convoy zones work? Like the Soviet Convoy is worth 4… does this mean that the Russians are collecting 4 ipcs at the beginning of the game?

I’ve made a ABattlemap module of this map/game. You can download it at www.axisandallies.us/G10.gim.zip

Just unzip it into your ABattlemap folder and then run ABattlemap, you’ll see it as one of the games in the list by clicking “New” and click “A&A Global War - beta” Its still beta until others don’t find errors. If you have any suggestions to improve the module let me know.

If you don’t know what ABattlemap is… you can take my tutorial at http://www.axisandallies.us/stepbystep/

Hey Deaths Head 420

do you have a PNG file version of the map ? Also do you mind i change the contents inside the map for my own use ? Also what software do you use to make the map ?

How about some after action reports on this game?

@Deaths:

I have a Game scheduled for Oct. 3-4.

I will post a AAR w/ pics after the game

Death

I look forward to seeing them. This may create some more interest in your game.

Use the Module I made and make a file of each turn as you play to show the movement

humm any changes to the map you posted ? i would really want to see some changes here and there lol

For players aid :

1. add in cruiser ship for the purchase chart

2. add in neutral deploy unit symbols on the map (just for neutrals)

To add a bit more realism :

1. make japan into 4 areas :

“The four largest islands are Honshū, Hokkaidō, Kyūshū and Shikoku, together accounting for 97% of Japan’s land area.”

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Regions_and_Prefectures_of_Japan.svg

2. Gibraltar : who ever controls this can pass through between there and Morocco

3)  Denmark : who ever controls it can pass through sea zone 18

4. Norway : who ever controls it can pass through sea zone 17

5. Maylay : who ever controls it pass through sea zone 70

6. add in polisti (the main oil production for Germany , inside Romania) for Romania as a victory city

7. Change name of Cairo to Egypt : and make Cairo a victory city inside it

8 ) add Portugal beside Spain as neutral (will join axis if attack) and Azores belong to them too

9. Iraq was actually pro axis , so at least make it neutral (join axis if under attack)

10. add in whales for mainland England

11. add in northern Ireland as England controlled separating from Eire

12 ) add in Belgian at where it was

13. add in Cherbourg at western France as victory city

14. Split Yugoslavia into two half  , the inner land first half still remains Yugoslavia (inner land) or as Croatia  as German control, All the shore areas are into one new area (maybe something like Italian owned Yugoslavia) this area connects mainland Italy and Greece / Albania together

15. add port in Vladivostok

16. add Soviet convoy at sea zone 134

17. add German convoy at sea zone 18 (all the Sweden minerals are imported there)

18. add British convoy in sea zone 64 (Suez was the most important supply line for Africa)

19. Argentina would turn axis if under attack ( they were pro axis at the time )

20. Brazil would turn allies if under attack (pro US they were)
