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.

I really love this game so much that I had to make a video about it! I can honestly stand there and stare at the set-up for hours.
Special thanks to Coach from HBG and the guys at IWNGU.com for helping make my bunker look like this!
Enjoy

@SS:
FANTASTIC! That the 4’ x 8’ map?
Yes, it is the largest map. I needed to build a table for it!

When I move house an entire room is being dedicated to this game, no other Axis and Allies game comes close to Global 1939. Truly epic!

That was excellent. Great work. I am guessing there are no toddlers in the house! I can see why you could just stand and stare at it for hours. Beautiful.
