When I painted my units, I had issues with Britain, I originally made 2 schemes, then decided I only wanted the tan, not green… On my painting, I used a combo of lacquer Enamel and acrylic, it was at the enamel stage, but I soaked them in paint thinner (in all preparation to consider them toast and order new units)… but they came clean, they soaked for 10 min or so, and I used my tooth brush (yes mine lol, bristle’s turned green, and yes, I still use it, the green faded away HAHA) to scrub away the paint film.
Global Gaming Table Threads and Pictures

I had posted regarding my table in the past. But there was an issue with the pictures. I have a couple of videos that are linked if your interested.
Hope you enjoy!

You have to see this table to believe it;

Hi there, I’d like to show you my gaming table:

@fasthard
This is a beautifully designed table, and the wood-paneled room in which it’s located looks great too. And it’s a nice touch to have added those two monitors which, as far as I can tell, keep track of which territory is controlled by which power and the current status of the national objectives. Is that how those two charts get used during game play? -
@fasthard yea very nice. Like the padded edges and the sword hanging on the wall.
One question, where are the beer holders ? heh heh just kiddin. Looks great and sure it was fun to build as well.

@barnee, @CWO-Marc
Thx for your feedback!@CWO-Marc
Yes, the monitors help tracking the income during the game. My group and I always forgot to adjust the IPC table at any time during the game, that sucked. Therefore I did this Excel table. Works quite fine now. If anybody is interessted let me know, I’d like to share it.@barnee
The beer holders are on each side of the table. I don’t like cupholders, because there is only space for one drink
The dagger helps if someone does not want a drink or to declare war to other nations.

@fasthard sweet
Reminds of me playing horseshoes where we’d have a beer on each end lol -
Got some facelift for my gaming table:
In addition there’s a steel panel below the map, needed for the new created flight stands and other magnetic stuff:

Hi everyone,
Jan and I almost finished our warroom.
We would like to share some pictures with you.
The map on the table has the same size as the 1936 middle map.The Map on the picture does also have the Captains ‘‘house rule expansion’’ in it. (addition to the game)
For every Axis and Allies lover, who would like to add some more variety of units and tactics.
It’s very easy to learn and to add, to your regular game, the 1940 global version.https://www.axisandallies.org/forums/topic/37535/the-captain-s-global-1940-house-rules-collection
Just take a quick look, and decide for yourself.
On the wall we have two dice towers, which can be taken off smoothly.
(I made those myself, they are very quiet and easy to use. I also sell them, if you are interested).
We also use a magnetic board on the wall to keep up during the game. (there is a poster in the making for the board with a large ipc tracker.)Let me know what you think of our game board, and if something is missing just leave a reply in the comments.
Best regards,
Jan and Cornelis from the Netherlands.
