Hi there, I’d like to show you my gaming table:

@barnee, @CWO-Marc
Thx for your feedback!

@CWO-Marc
Yes, the monitors help tracking the income during the game. My group and I always forgot to adjust the IPC table at any time during the game, that sucked. Therefore I did this Excel table. Works quite fine now. If anybody is interessted let me know, I’d like to share it.

@barnee
The beer holders are on each side of the table. I don’t like cupholders, because there is only space for one drink ;-) The dagger helps if someone does not want a drink or to declare war to other nations.

@pacifiersboard Thx for playing me. Looking forward learning more from you in the next (hopefully also crazy, maybe a little bit less) game without dicing you… sry :-/

Got some facelift for my gaming table:

In addition there’s a steel panel below the map, needed for the new created flight stands and other magnetic stuff:

Hi there, I also had socket write errors. But I was able to post the turn summary via ‘Post Turn Summary’ when I did this:

• save the game
• leave game
• load saved game
• retype ‘Forum Password’
• start game by forum (‘Play’)
• post turn summary via ‘Post Turn Summary’

Hope this helps!?

Dear Sirs and Madams,

I’d like to introduce you my Microsoft Excel based IPC calculator/tracker for Axis & Allies Global 1940 2nd. My A&A hommies and I always forget to adjust the territory at any time during the game so I developed this Excel table.

It serves several functions :

• track and calculate IPCs with territories and national objectives (few have to be adjusted manual (SZ125, Med, …) [sheet: IPC track]
  

• calculate Purchases per 1 round [sheet: purchase round]
  

• calculate all rounds [sheet: purchase chart])
  

• calculate land and sea battles (my dice colors are 1:=beige, 2:= blue, 3:= red, 4:= yellow, therefore the dice colors)
  

And here is:
AxisAndAllies_GLOBAL_1940_2nd_Initial_20200228.xls

Please don’t hesitate to ask if there are some questions.
Thanks for your feedback!

Hi there, I’m looking for a BM4 game. I’ve no experience with playing via forum yet but I’m looking forward learning it. Thx

@allister I had the same problem about tracking the income. Therefore I created this Excel Table, (this screeenshoted here is only valid for BM). If there is interest I can invest some time to adjust it for OOB or have a look if i can find a former OOB version anywhere on my hard drive.

Hi kennethofborg,
you’re welcome.

I’ve done a global IPC tracker with MS Excel (https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/qj1ukd81mhwvhwu9ajbo3/AxisAndAllies_GLOBAL_1940_2nd_Initial_20200312.xlsm?dl=0&rlkey=ndesbxts7ih1pcqknz2vriu6l), therefore I’ve got some preparation lists I can easily adjust:
BasicCountryListGlobal.txt
There’re all IPCs relevant territories included (also the NO ones without IPC value).

Here are some maps files:

https://www.dropbox.com/s/yi80qacpzzmcfj9/MapnoTerrain.bmp?dl=0

Loooking forward testing the calculator ;-)

Best regards

@WindowWasher yeah, that looks a little bit strange with the purchased ground troups in tokyo waiting for their bus…
Sorry for the dicing in alexandria… struggled a lot to attack there, but I felt I had to, but with a more even result… :-/

@dawgoneit 109?

Welcome @dawgoneit to game2.
Good luck and have fun!
