@jonahawesome said in Cold War / Using AA 1940 Global war board:
I’m setting it in the mid-1950s / Late
Experimenting with it and making I can get some ideas from y’all
If your gonna have swordsmen, why not include ninjas, panzers, and death stars while your at it.
Good idea, but I won’t.
I think the weapon of the day was a musket that could be fixed with a bayonet. Swords were more a decorative object. The bayonet charge was a fixture up to and including world war I. Perhaps swordsmen would have a +1 ability to pick strawberries or cut hay with the swords. Perhaps offer a bonus of +1 to farmers when working with swordsmen to defeat a field of wheat?
There are no bonuses

Hmm. I’m changing some things
France=52 (You have to work together to win)
Russia=39 (Like supplies ships, Russia get’s a free rifleman every 3 turns from the East)
UK=27 (Get some supplies ships that won’t die.)
Austro-Prussian Alliance= 24 (If Vienna falls you can continues to put things in Berlin if it’s still yours,)
I just noticed you included riflemen aswell!
Where are the stats for the Napoleon’s flying dragon unit?
I guess the dragon stats would depend on the age of said dragon and if it fights on a full belly or not.

Do I dare ask what the flying dragon is?
It’s an equally serious response to the seriousness of this thread.

So yeah I would have generals around where some big battles will happen.
Okay I got the UK’s setup on I’ll do some edits on it later and I’ll put Russia and Austria on next, but won’t put an update, next update on the site, will be costs and stuff anyways here’s the site
I’m actually doing something similar, but only for my own amusement. I’m using the map and some tokens from Napoleon in Europe, the units from Viktory II, the chits with the generals from Age of Napoleon, and the battlefield rules from Napoleon’s War for tactical battles.
It will play as a sort of Napoleon: Total War, The Boardgame. The ship pieces included with the Viktory II set are excellent for naval engagements.
Altough this isn’t an Axis & Allies clone, it will look and feel a lot like it, with area movement, dice rolling, and plastic units.

calvary? Outside Jerusalem?
ahh now I get it. swords into ploughshares and then… cha-ching no hill.
You’re quite right. Couldn’t do that landscaping with muskets.

I’m using photoshop to make the map.
I should have this done by around the end of the year, dunno, I’m still a bit unsure about somethings, but it will somehow be released wherever it’s printable, actually, played online, still don’t quite know.
I change my mind about Austria and Russia not getting boats, but I’m still confused about a setup for naval’s.
But more important! RUSSIA’S TERRITORIES ARE ON THE BOARD!!! :D
Do you like it?
This side of the board

The Ottoman Empire doesn’t border Ukraine and your map doesn’t look close to the real world

If you don’t care about that stuff, why call all the territories what they are? Just make up random names
