I like this map very much. I wonder if its possible to get a personalized version with some territory names/colors changed and no preprinted naval/air bases (for a fee of course).

Maybe an idea to make major rivers and mountain ranges into boundaries which could affect movement and attack/defense values? Or to print a certain number of 'major' cities on the map to simulate 'urban warfare' which for every city would put one infantry on a +1 for defense?

It is BY FAR the best map I have ever played on.

I never played though cry
But it looks WAY better than G40. Also, The board is Amazing!

I like the idea of the insets like the original AandA. Territories that may become cramped could be represented on the borders of the map.

As it is, I think the map is good and enjoy playing on it. Yes, Europe and the western USSR can become a bit crowded, but using chips and keeping things neat helps out a lot.


It will be really interesting to see the new map and rules.

I have a question to those who have tested the 1939 game.
Is it easy to capture London, on germanys first round?
If germany just buy a lot of transports in the first impulse of the blitz, then attack London on the second impulse?

I know that you are revising the map, so I'd like to ask: Can you put ROME closer to it's real location? (withouth changing the game mechanics)

Rome should be in the MIDDLE of Italy, you've put it were Venice is located.

Thanks!

We are playing ALL our global games on Tigermans 39 map now. We use the old 4x8 map but have added a few sea zones. Also have changed a lot of the rules and setups. Have added additional unit types. Have a game scheduled for tomorrow. Will post photos when we get started. Germany is very crowded on the initial setup but that improves in turn two and three.

Hey Fish-

You should post your alternate setup on the GW39 BGG page. I'd be interested in your changes and what you didn't like about the original version.

                                                                                 I simply do not have the time to go to another site and post all the changes and setup right now. I am not a typest to start with. Our game is still a work in progress. There is no use posting everything at least until we get it 90% complete. I am attaching a photo.
