I based off what they pretty much had at peak of war. I didn’t do the 1 piece equals so many. I just made it like Uk 6 BB and spread them out. US I had 7 BB but reduced it to 5. 4 damaged in Hawaii at start of game. If it had like real 4 light cruisers and 2 h cruisers I just made that 2 normal cruisers and 2 more normal cruisers. To eliminate the 3 diff pieces. Everything else straight up with tweaks to setup as we played the game.
Yes the eastern front setup is more like spring of 41 than dec. 41 like pac is. based on the game balance and timing to work
Out. As u see the battle of the Atlantic is at its peak too. More like dec 41 there. Only issue in most games if not all is the d day invasions. Most happen before June of 44 in all games but to get correct US wouldn’t attack Europe until turn 7 or 8 with torch happening sooner
That would be a major setup change and year of turns.
I have my own map for game too.
Any WW1 global players?

My son and I have been talking about the WW2 1936 map game and we both thought a WW1 version would be really nice. I historical board gaming has a game but looks like it isn’t getting as much play as the 1936 game.

The game hasn’t been released yet. I think HBG might release it sometime around Christmas 2018 but don’t quote me on that. They’re also working on a Global 1861, a Global 1919-1935, and a Global 1936-1945 Second Edition. Should all be good!

That would be why I don’t see much info on it. Thanks
My son and I saw a Youtube video on playing 1914 on the 1940 global map it looked pretty nice I think we will give that a try once I get my Global maps. We talked last night about some cool “what if” games like what if America or Italy didn’t join the allies or maybe joined the central powers. Lots of different ideas that we could play out on a world map and have a lot of fun.
I will keep a watch for HBG maps.

Has anyone developed a ww1 setup for the 36 map or any others?
I’d like to have a go at something like that!
Some of the best games are developed by the community on here.I’ve been waiting for a while for some of these HBG variants…
