RE: Tjoek's Global 1940 setup charts: Updated Jan 31st

Nice work Tjoek!
Small thing: maybe instead of M/m for Industrial Complexes use L/S? The difference right now is easy to overlook if you ask me. And Large/Small should readily translate to Major or Minor right?
As you can see I’ve left it as M/m as to me this is the closest visualisation to the Major / minor IC as they are called. I thought about using 10 / 3 (max number of units that can be build) to represent them but that didn’t look right next to the number of units in the other columns.

RE: Tjoek's Global 1940 setup charts: Updated Jan 31st
I’ve finished creating all the setup charts for both Global 1940 and 1942. See the first message for the ZIP file containing all files. This does include setup charts for the Neutral powers as well.
Let me know if there are any errors.

@Tjoek
I’m working on Honolulu as a tribute to all of this work you’ve done. I actually went and carefully isolated the dot, text and shadows out of the background before I realized you can probably just drop it all wholesale, land and sea bits and all, on the correct island.Iwo Jima is done already, assuming the rotation is all that was wrong with that one.
The real winner, here, is fricking GIMP. Seriously, I cannot believe something like GIMP exists.
Thnx mate! Please send the updates to me and I will merge them with the files posted on the main post.

RE: Custom 3D Miniatures: Major & Minor Industrial Complexes, Recruitment Center, Airbase, and Naval Base
@vodot these look amazing! I can only dream of this quality print work. (Or go the shapeways route offcourse)

RE: Logout problems?
Just to let you know it is happening to me once more. Seemed fine for a few days as you already mentioned.

@Tjoek this is incredible. Printing this out as I type. Now to find a sheet of 36x78in plexiglass…
Thnx @vodot! Please share a picture of your map when it’s printed, I would love to see your result!

RE: Flight Stands
Cool, and how does the size of the bottom circle match with the chips? Do they fit nicely?

RE: Tjoek's Global 1940 setup charts: Updated Jan 31st
Thanks guys!
Note that I’ve updated the first post to add download links to the original sized files at 300dpi. Since the new forum the old ways are gone and I need to link differently. Will get used to it :-)

Tjoek's Global 1940 setup charts: Updated Jan 31st
Update:
I’ve finished and corrected all the setup charts for both the OOB 1940 scenario as well as Larry Harris’ 1942 scenario. They can be downloaded in one ZIP fileAs my custom map use a few name changes to territories of both Russia and China, I’ve added the setup charts with the old names as well as the new names. So you can print what you like best.
Enjoy!
Note I’ve slightly updated the artwork such that the white letters now have a black border just as in the original artwork. 2 previews below:
---------------------- Original message below ---------------------------
Hi guys,Parallel on finishing my Anniversary map file and working on my custom roundels I started working on custom setup charts for Global 1940. I wanted to have custom setup charts to a few reasons:
- I personally don’t like the wordy way the setup charts on the box are. I prefer table style layout so it becomes easy to spot how many of which unit type you’ll need
- The global 1940 setup has a few minor changes compared to the setup on the boxes. This way we don’t have to double check the rule book for the minor changes
- I will include a setup chart for the neutral territories (as I’ve removed the standing army number in my custom map file for Global 1940).
- It becomes easy and straightforward to add the 1942 setup variant as well
Inspired by the work of Siredblood I started designing with two design principles in mind:
- the same look and feel as the original artwork of the game
- should fit inside the original boxes that come with the game
Once again shout out what you think about them! And let me know if things can be improved.

Before I came up with these charts I worked on a system with one card per territory with visual clues to which units should be placed there. This will generate a lot of cards which I thought would be to cumbersome. But check it out for yourself anyway:

RE: Flight Stands
@Johnson73 Can you share with us how you’ve made these flight stands? They seem to have a different approach then the others I’ve seen around on this forum.

RE: Copyright infringement
@Harvard3x said in Copyright infringement:
@BusaRider29 Exactly right; copyright law is intended to prevent commercial use; had to explain it to Kinkos/Staple’s staff 10X, that the difference in “use” is material.
Harvard3x welcome to the forum! One suggestion though: please look at the age of a thread before replying to it. This one is over a year old.

RE: Tjoek's A&A Anniversary OOB Map file (Updated March 23rd)
Updated! See first post for new map files!
Let me know if you miss anything.
I consider these finalised for now. If people want me to correct Iwo Jima or Honolulu send me a PM. I might consider doing it for a small fee.

RE: Tjoek's A&A Anniversary OOB Map file (Updated March 23rd)
@P-Unit I have actually finalised the file today. Only thing left to do is to generate the different versions and upload them. So watch this space the coming days.

Thanks for letting us know! -
RE: ✅ Forum Migration To Do List
@Quirky-Turtle said in ✅ Forum Migration To Do List:
@djensen many thanks for all the hard work.
I’ve noticed one minor bug. When logging in, the forum will not load the darkly skin but will keep the default until I go to settings and reset the skin there.
The problem does not occur for me while the auto-login is still working (so when returning to the forum the skin remains to the one I’ve set)
I have the same issue with not directly loading the dark skin when I login. After logging in a simple refresh will trigger the skin (less cumbersome then going to settings)

sample prints that my kids had hidden somewhere… but all’s good now except for the spare time at the moment.
haha dude I feel your pain. The look on my four year old’s face when she opened the door and saw Anniversary setup on the floor… I had a subsequent week or so of “Let’s play axis and allies” requests every morning and evening. I gave her the 1941 board and some '41 bits to play with. :)
Luckily we play in the attic were my 4 and 2 year olds cannot get to without help, but they do want to watch what we’re doing. And besides they know there is candy up there. :grinning:
