I’ve created a few extra sets for all editions, by editing these cards in my computer. These extra cards as well as many initials, are based mainly on the Axis & Allies Revised Rulebook but also of the other editions, and include in addition to their National Advantages and Technologies. They appear in my related comment archives:

I noticed in a YouTube video today from hilltop pillbox that the board they were playing on had nation specific chips. Green for USA, yellow for UK, gray for Germany, red for Russia, etc.

Does this help in any way? Does it make each nation’s forces easier to see on the board? Does it keep someone from accidentally “cheating” when doing a random chip out?

@Dafyd:

THAT IS SO COOL!  That is truly incrdible detail.Â

thanks Dafyd…this was my first post of the bombers but it screwed up, I have the other thread with the same title with more of them painted if you liked this one.

Dude… you have got to check out HBGs new Global War series. I am just finding out a lot about this myself. The Global War 1936-1945 game is supposed to be released next month.

This gets into almost all the stuff you just mentioned. The games are going to start in 1850 and move all the way up through 2025. The board is huge (bigger than G40) and full of more intricate elements including the possibility for the CSA. I think your game may already be here.
