Here’s mine that I created out of black card stock last year. There much more rigid than using standard paper and still work great. I’m definitely going to be making these for AAE 40 When it comes out. Thanks again ozimek.

Do you find that you have sufficient 5s and 10s. In the past my group has used the paper ipcs but I like the idea of being able to see how much money your opponent has from across the room. Hence the poker chip idea.

I find my croup tends to sort there cash into piles based on what you are planning on buying. So if you were planning on buying 4 infantry a tank and a destroyer, most of my group would divide their cash into 3 piles and place their units they plan to buy on top. So the first pile would be 1 10 and 2 ones for the infantry. Second would be a 5 and a one for the tank. Last would be an eight and three ones got the destroyer. As such I find more smaller bills as opposed to lager ones are typically more useful. Generally speaking.

How many extra ones do you find you needed? I don’t think I’ll need a lot of 25s as only a few countries would realistically use given our groups purchasing  fetishes. I don’t want to overspend but I also don’t want to have to constantly make change cuz we barely have enough small bills.

I’ve been looking to add these custom IPC poker chips to spruce up my game, however they are quite expensive.

How many poker chips do I need for global 1940? Will I need more than one set? What is your guys experience?

Thanks in advance.

Those small ICs can’t be bought. I made them by cutting, sanding, and then gluing back together some of the official ICs. Very time consuming so I only made a few.

Thanks.

Houston is a little far to travel for a game but I won’t completely dismiss the possibility.

Thanks for your input. Anything else?

I recently bought 1914 and I’m planning to introduce to my gaming group, however I know the recent A&A games have been plagued with piece shortages. I severely dislike introducing new games with such obvious component deficiencies as I believe it biases new players against the game from the start. Short of buying a 2nd copy, what quantity of specific pieces for which countries would I need to pick up from the second hand market so that I won’t run out of them in 98% of games?

Example:
Germany
5 infantry
2 tanks
2 fighters
7 control markers

Britain
2 tanks
2 fighters

USA
2 transports

Etc.

Thanks
