Which map comes closest to the Global 1940 A&A game?

Hi everyone - we’re now up to 8 full-length game videos.

Would love to get your feedback.

Looks like they are big customers at the HBG shop. And what was that 10 sided dice about ? Houserules ?

I believe it was to help count their game rounds.

Yep, that’s what we use it for.

Thanks for the support, everyone.  This forum is a great resource.

Our story is that Chris & I used to play the original version of the game religiously while in high school, but just got back into the game a few years ago with Global 1940.  But now we live on opposite sides of the country and only get a chance to play one week a year, and the strategies need to be a lot different on this board than what we grew up on.  So yes, we’re still learning this board and the best approaches to it, and loving every game. We appreciate all the thoughtful feedback we’ve gotten in the comments section.

@Young:

My friends and I dislike using 2 books to find a rule when we play A&A 1940 Global, mostly because we never play 1940 Europe or 1940 Pacific alone which is how the rule references were designed. We also want an easy lookup for all the rule clarifications that have been made throughout the FAQ forum, because we sometimes hear “I read it in the FAQ” and someone will challenge by saying “oh ya?… show me where” which becomes a whole other problem.

So I was thinking about customizing our own rule book, something with more graphics and in depth explainations for select situations. This book would imalgamate both Europe and Pacific into one resource and will be designed with the Global player in mind. Obviously I would need to use most of and more likely all of the writen material in the WOTC rule books that came with the games, and my worry is… could this be considered copy write infringment?

Like all my customizations, I never ask for money or profit in anyway other than seeing the joy of others using my custom materials. I see this custom rule book idea the same as my custom map where I use existing materials and modify them in a way that enhances our gaming experience, and I than share them with the community for zero in return. Does anyone think I will have copy write trouble, I wish to understand this risk better before undertaking such a massive project?

YG: You already offer a high-Rez digital copy of the game board. That’s just as much of a potential infringement as a rule book.
