• Looking forward to it fer sure. I’ll read the rulebook ahead of time.


  • Tried playing a game of Anniversary a couple months ago.  Seemed way too simple after playing the amazing game that Global 1940 is.

    That being said, hopefully the 1942 setup of Global will get better and allow for a faster game start.

    @Karl7:

    Be sure to post pictures…

    Pics have been few and far between on the Blog lately, sorry. I’m finding it hard to even edit the podcast these last few weeks but I’ll try harder. If you want all the pics that I’ve taken you should follow us on Twitter @dicetruction. Shameless plug I know but I’ll throw in another Twitter address that you’ll love (not by me but everyone on this site should open a Twitter account just for this account. It’s called WW2 Tweets from 1941 @RealTimeWWII it follows along through the war  day to day with articles and photos from during the war. Awesome account.

    Just give it a once over, it’s essentially the same as 1942 with a couple extra rules for developments and such

    @Most:

    Global has a great deal of structure in the first few rounds, boring for USA and Russia for the first couple hours. It’s a great game but Anniversary is much better. Quite a few more options.

    Yes, Global is scripted, but I love all the units and sweep of the game.

    You guys at Dicetruction kill me. When I used to live in Idaho, I had a buddy who I used to stay up all night with playing A&A variants we created.  We often polished off a 24 pack of Natty Light and then tap into some Carlo Rossi. (Hard to believe now how we could drink that shitt) Needless to say, around 1am the game would go weird places.  The variant we had was based on the World at War by Xeno, an A&A knock off.  I was going to adapt the variant to the Global map.  If I ever get it done I’ll post it on the site.

  • If you are not there who will keep Ray’s turns to under 1 hour? Does that mean this entire episode is just one of Ray’s turns?

    Hey on your yard sale find, I’m betting those pieces are from a game called ‘Attack!’ from Eagle Games.

    LOL yeah you should. I’ve been listening to you guys play 1914 while painting and sealing some old Fortress America pieces. I have another “scrap” game called Attack!, the guys have square bases and the sculpts have a lot of flash. If that’s what you have they’d be good for neutrals if you don’t have HBG’s.

    I’ve got the HBG guys all painted but Ray needs some for his Global. That’s a good idea, I’ll let him know. Thanks for listening.


  • I remember that game Attack!, it was fun but a little too simplistic
