@barnee Feel free to take a look at my rules here! https://drive.google.com/open?id=1_zHdtZj-QwcWAd-ufKAvgSz8lsZQpYVZ

Hi all. I just wanted to share my W.I.P map that is meant for my custom 1939 Game that uses Global 1940 as a template. In order to begin this project I used the map file which Tjoek so graciously uploaded here https://www.axisandallies.org/forums/topic/28942/tjoek-s-1940-global-map-file-and-setup-charts-updated-may-30th-2018 and a fantastic photo editing software called GIMP.
This 1939 game isn’t meant to just be a set up difference and is meant to almost be its own creation entirely with drastically different rules and powers. Regardless of my expansion, I would like to receive some criticism and how I could improve my map. I am already very aware of 2 glaring issues: the creation of my own borders (Specifically in places such as Spain and Vyborg) as well as incorrect coloring of territories according to the owner of said territories (Such as Belgian Congo). If anyone is aware of a solution to either of these issues please let me know because I would like to make my map look as clean and flawless as possible.

Here is a dropbox link to my edited map: https://www.dropbox.com/s/o6xuzc5fvvwhyrj/1939.png?dl=0

According to the description of the ‘‘BATTLE PIECES’’ - AMERIKA SET (YELLOW GOLD) PRE-ORDER product on HBG, it says, and I quote, “Pre-Orders on Yellow Gold Amerika Allies Sets will be available for 5 weeks only (Ends Dec 31), after that they will only be in the new Amerika Game with tan Allies, Black Germans, and Yellow-Gold Japanese”. The bolded text seems to indicated that HBG will rerelease Amerika with different color pieces? Does anyone have anymore information on this rerelease? I am fascinated by the prospect of being able to have Amerika’s unique pieces in 3 more colors.

@GeneralHandGrenade I was able to complete Germany using your proper pieces list; before I continue to the rest of the powers I’d like to get your opinion. How do you think this is organized? Too complicated, confusing, excessive? You can check it out in my new folder at https://drive.google.com/open?id=1qYIo43lRrczPFlhS-Vq-FbCitjk040UL

@RellHaiser Hey RellHaiser, I appreciate your input. I did want to comment on having to buy 5 pieces of a unit which you only need one of though, seems like a real waste. It would be nice if HBG could sell every necessity at $60 per country or something like that, it would save both parties a headache.

@GeneralHandGrenade Great, I’ll try to use your resources and make the same exact lists with updated requirements according to your lists. I appreciate your input as well, its of great help to an up and coming GW player like myself.

@GeneralHandGrenade Oh shoot my bad, need me to delete this post because its rife with inaccuracy then? I’ll take your call since you seem to be the latest Global War guru out there.

Greetings everyone. Now, I don’t actually have all the necessary components nor have ever played Global War 1936-1945 myself, but I would like to share a Google Drive I’ve made of every required piece in the game. Assuming that the reader owns a copy of Europe and Pacific 1940 2nd Edition (If you’re going to play Global War you might as well for its pieces, no reason no to) I looked through what pieces these two game provide, how many pieces excess or short they are, and how much it would cost each nation to buy all their pieces. Resources I used to calculate and keep track of everything was Young Grasshopper’s thread of the components of Europe and Pacific 1940, Historical Board Gaming’s own “Needed Pieces” document for Global War 1936, and of coures a TI-84 Calculator. I like to think that I covered all bases and that this would be a master list on how much one would need to spend for each nation and what pieces to buy, as well as potential replacements for pieces that have cheaper alternatives. For individuals who have a full GW’36 game, I would greatly appreciate your input and corrections to my errors and maybe we can use this thread in the future for newbies to the game (like me) when buying pieces? I understand that Generalhandgrenade has made a video about necessary pieces, but I understand that some people would enjoy a document to be able to read at their own pace. (P.S I’ve already asked the admins if I’m allowed to share links and they approved of me doing so).

Quick question, am I allowed to share a link to a Google Drive I created? I created a folder for an in depth “required components” for Global War 1936 pieces and am wondering if Moderators will allow me to link to it.
