Greetings. I took some of the critiques into account. Here is the Axis&Allies Boardgame Sim Map, along with a version of my AAA Mod that disables settlers.
-Settlers are disabled. In addition:
-US and Britain are allied. Germany and Japan are allied. Others are at permanent War/Peace
-Removed anti-tank gun from Karelia
-Removed Ace promotions from British fighters in London.
-Improved some revealed map locations to encourage earlier attacks
-This AAA modded version should be inherently better balanced, as the combat values/costs of the units in my AAA mod more closely reflect those of the boardgame from which this map was designed after.
To install just unzip into Program Files/Firaxis/CivIV/BTS/Mods, **NOT** the MyGames/CivIV/BTS/Mods folder, or you wont' be able to see the games of your buddies.
The Other Major changes are noted below:
-------------------------------------------
UNITS:
-Destroyers Combat 20
-Ironclads Move 3
-Battleships Cost 380, available with assembly and combustion.
-Most ships after Destroyer Cost 50% more
-Aircraft costs doubled
-Nukes Cost 60% more
-Submarines can't see submarines
-Submarines available at electricity and combustion
-Destroyers 50% Attack bonus vs Subs
-Destroyers 20% Defend bonus vs Subs
-Transports Defend Only
-Battleships 40% intercept chance. Transports and carriers now 10% intercept chance.
BUILDINGS:
-Heroic Epic Now gives Leadership to all military units, and +1 Experience.
-Heroic Epic, Military Academy, Shipyard now all only give 25% construction bonus.
-------------------------------------------
Have Fun. Feel free to edit and post your own modifications. The image below is only the Pacific Theatre, but gives a feel how I have modeled the boardgame, using cities to represent countries/territories.

I had attached the wrong map, so if you downloaded this yesterday please redownload.
