@Midnight_Reaper well, i use the 3 pieces of the first image, they serve me well, for that they are.
Now, the system and the mechanics of the game are made for a fast gameplay, and map and combat are more a -ww2 in europe- theme or abstraction, instant of a true 100% historical simulation.
Yes, random dice can by a problem some times, but rock-paper-scissors system can minimice the dice factor. And there are some post-production official optional rules and ideas, i find in the forums, to engance gameplay.
Wen i playtest all options, i can put here, if you want to know, my full opinion on the game.
War Room, Global 1940

The War Room & Game Board Table is designed for two-player games, specialized for Axis & Allies Global 1940 with the G40 House Rules Expansion.
Not visible to the camera are the fireplace & armchairs.
The Dice Towers, unit trays (simple version) & small shelf on the wall are customized (homemade). The small shelf on the wall is for newly purchaised units.
The map is the G40 Siredblood Map Version 1.2 - we bought the map file in 2019. Printed in out-door self-adhesive foil and coated with matt transparent foil for further protection.The War Room is in the back of my basement - so, no disturbances.

@The-Captain Nice war room! I really like your light fixtures, do you recall the name or where you purchased?

Hi @Intrepid,
Thanks,
Most units are from OOB Axis & Allies games - all the way back from Axis & Allies Classic.
Tanks & Trucks are from the US company GHQ Models scale 1:285
Air units are from the UK company Tumbling Dice - scale 1:600.

Hi Joey,
Thanks for your comment - I can confirm, that it has been time consuming to get this far with the Axis & Allies War Room.
But most importantly - it was worth the effort - and we continue to have tons of fun & challenge playing Axis & Allies.
