Great work. Would be interested in the source files.

how do you get the link?

@NilOGrav:

Thanks guys,

Glad you liked them. Thanks for pointing out the policy, I’ll behave then :-)

BTW if you want to see the whole set, use this: mediafire-url followed by /download/7dtxrwxnbe0n2pe/A&A_NO_pdf.tar.gz

For the editable ones replace pdf by odt

Will also be making a nice big battleboard.

chrz

how do i locate the game? search for AA but no luck.

@Gauss_Death:

I have imported the game board (an image of it) into Roll20 and set up the pieces (I used the game piece directory in the back of the rulebook for the game piece images). Unlike other Virtual Tabletops Roll20 is system agnostic so it is pretty easy to set up board and card games if you have the images.

Roll20 has an easy to use dice function that also includes a success/fail function (ie: tells you how many hits you get).

The game can be real time or, for play by post you can also post messages in the game’s message forum.

How would that work?
@Gauss_Death:

I was wondering if anyone would be interested in a play by post format of Axis and Allies 1940: Europe via a virtual tabletop (Roll20)?

Interesting. How does that work ?

@Gauss_Death:

I live in Boise, Idaho and like Axis and Allies.

Note for the OP: If you would be willing to add a Virtual Tabletop “location” to your list could you perhaps add “Roll20”? I have A&A 1940 Europe set up on Roll20.

Really looking to play against someone else LOL

sorry I meant it AAP 2nd. as per the prior question.

@ChocolatePancake:

No, he’s saying that in the G40 game, there’s no payment for the USA when Japan declares war. The USA just gets to start collecting its NO bonuses during USA’s collect income phase.

cond1024, if I recall correctly, France can declare war on Japan whenever it wants to, but it has no bearing on anything else.

Another awesome file …. works good in Safari

@MtnGoatJoe:

Here’s another tool that some people might find useful (especially for new players or players trying to keep track of a large, diverse purchase).

It’s my Unit Purchase Tool. It’s simply a web form that lets you enter your income and industrial capacity (optional), and then select units. The total IPCs remaining is shown at the top.

I use it on iOS, and I’ve tested it on a PC with Chrome and on a Surface tablet. They all seem to work fine.

On iOS, it’s best if you can put the file on a web server, open it, and save it to your home page (it’s just one self-contained file and doesn’t need access to the internet once it’s on the iOS home screen). The file will open in Mail, but it won’t work. Another option is to upload it to Dropbox. It will open in iOS and work from there (you just can’t save it to your home page and it has some weird usability behavior; it works, but it’s kinda weird). As much as it pains me to say it, accessing the file is easier on the Surface.

Anyway, have a look and let me know what you think.

Edit: I added a manifest file so that once it’s on your iOS home screen, you can remove it from your server. The form will work whether or not you’re connected to the internet.

wow GREAT JOB !!! asking to much AAE AAP

@MtnGoatJoe:

Ok, here is a beta Global 40 iWork Numbers spreadsheet for tracking IPCs. It works on Mac OS X, iOS, and PCs via iCloud in a browser. It is NOT Microsoft Excel compatible (and don’t ask me to make an Excel version, I don’t have time).

My group uses a projector to put the spreadsheet on the wall so everyone can see it. It also looks good on a 60 inch TV at 125% (with the Formatting pane hidden), but it does require vertical scrolling (sorry, but there’s just too many territories to fit all of them on a 1920x1080 screen).

EVERY territory has a popup menu. Just select who owns the territory, and the IPC income table will update accordingly. When someone declares their combat moves, mark the territories as Contested, and then update them after the battles have been fought. Contested territories are highlighted in red, so marking them before battle will help you keep track of which territories need to be updated after battle. (NOTE: Marking a territory as Contested removes its IPCs from the country that owns it. The IPC totals will be accurate after combat is concluded and the territory is assigned its rightful owner.) There’s also a National Objectives table that is mostly automatic, but it does have some checkboxes for certain situations. And, if strict neutrals become pro-whoever, there are popup menus to set them accordingly (which should be done because it affects a NO for Germany).

The spreadsheet is editable via iCloud in a browser, but there are limitations. You can perform minor edits to equations, but you’ll need Numbers on a Mac to edit equations with references to other tables. Also, there is a hidden table that deals with victory cities. If you accidentally select it and edit a cell, you’ll screw up the Victory Cities table (the one with the totals).

So, have a look and let me know what’s broken. The spreadsheet is based on one I did for Spring 1942 (which was play tested many times), but I haven’t had a chance to use this version in a game yet. Everything looks good to me in my limited testing, but the logic for the National Objectives is somewhat complicated, so pay close attention.

Edit: Attached a pict of a Spring 1942 game where we used a similar spreadsheet.

so the payment is done immediate after DOW from Japan. Then on the Collect Income phase USA gets it’s normal NO.  Am i getting it right?

@wittmann:

No, FADM. That is only on Pacific. The standard at war NOs count in Global.
That special 30 was introduced, as it was found Japan could sneak the US and capture its capital. Is for balance in Pacific only.
