Hi ANZAC. For the HBG 1939 map, think of a 4x8 sheet of plywood. Its is HUGE and awesome. You need a big room for that size table plus room to walk around on all 4 sides. I only played the 1939 game one time and I can say it is definitely superior in a hundred different ways, but playing it is an order of magnitude more complex than global 1940. Global 1940 seems like the kiddie game next to it, which is nuts because global 1940 is not an easy game by any means. I’d say your best bet is to get the global 1940 if only for the pieces, and then blow the extra money for the 1939 map and elite pieces if and when you and your crew outgrow it. Another option is to play 1940 on this site with triplea.

Thanks for the great deck of cards, @Young-Grasshopper!
The design is wicked, and I hope you’re getting compensated for all the hard work!
I’m going to buy a set today, and we’ll see how long it takes for them to arrive. Fingers crossed it’s not too long!

I purchased your Utah Deck last year and am very happy with the quality and style of your design!
As a fellow hard core A&A enthusiast, I am wondering if there will be an option to customize National Objectives to player’s liking, since I have some minor wording changes and some completely new NOs I’d like to use in my house rules.
Would it be possible to have people print their own modified NOs using your format and style?
Thanks!

@young-grasshopper said in Grasshopper’s 1940 Global Card Deck:
Mine arrived today, it took approximately 4 weeks from the date I ordered them to reach Toronto Canada.
I wonder how long it will take for mine to reach Spain!!
-
Any chance this deck comes with the victory condition cards for the tournament rules?
-
@mjdg That will be a whole new deck called “Omaha”… you will need both Utah and Omaha decks to play my tournament edition rules. Omaha deck will be available no later than the summer of 2021.
-
@tchenao So did it arrive?.. if so, how long did it take?
-
@rammstein I’m working in something along those lines now… remind me in a week if you don’t see anything from me before that.
-
@young-grasshopper it did not arrived yet. According to the Us Postal service link is still in the States since January 28th. I guess I will write to drivethroughcards, seems a bit long to be still there.
When I get it I will let you know!
Cheers!

@tchenao So sorry to hear that man, lately I’ve been promoting a new site with much better quality and shipping results, you can find them here…
Now Available at Make Playing Cards
https://www.makeplayingcards.com/sell/young-grasshopperIf you send me the link you used at drivethroughcards, I can see about bringing down my designs from there so that no-one else pays and goes without a deck shipped to them.

Hey,
I used this link :
https://www.drivethrucards.com/product/249207/Young-Grasshoppers-G40-Utah-DeckI also got the Omaha deck. The shipping itself was like twice the price of the cards (I am in Spain).
I wrote to driverthroughcards and they told me that they were sorry, but I have to wait 45 days to consider the parcel lost, and only then would they be able to send me a replacement order. By then I might just ask for a refund and then get them in this new website, although they are significantly more expensive here.
Thanks by the way for the link.
I had a G40 game set up ready for when the cards came…but I had to play it anways, I cannot wait that long LOL.
Cheers mate

Thanks for that link, I’ve been having a lot of success with "make playing cards” both with the quality of their cards and their shipments arriving in good time. I think I’ll take down the drivethru options as I don’t want this to happen to anyone else, and that Omaha deck is going to be obsolete soon anyways. If you PM me your contact info, I’ll see about sending you something for your troubles.

Only 200 dice sets left.

@young-grasshopper Are your custom dice still available? I went to the link posted here and it says “Product Not Available”. Thanks for all you do for the community!
-
@Young-Grasshopper Also wondering if the battle dice are available any where anymore?
-
@al3xanderthegr8 Haven’t seen YG in a while. @Contango might know
-
@al3xanderthegr8 They’re sold out & he currently has no plans to make more.

Agree with @hengst that they are sold out and don’t think he has plans for another run. Don’t think he checks the forums much these days but he did put out a new video not that long ago and said he wants to do a series teaching people how to play G40.

makeplayingcards.com pricing for european customers seems insanely high (37 euros plus shipping per deck). Would it be possible to post the image files for your decks someplace?

@Young-Grasshopper I love these cards. Would it be possible to add to them? We’ve incorporated some optional rules and National objectives have been added and changed.
Or could I pay your for your PDFs and then I could craft my own and send them to a printer?Thanks!
