And it begins

Germans won the game. Forced allies to send 4 tanks to the North plus allies air patrol kills below ave. Plus axis killed 7 out of 10 planes.Rommel was happy and said “Oh how I love my 88’s” !!! Allies did lose 3 units to land mines on first turn landing only and did good on Atlantic wall bunker kills early to knock them out. Used my advanced rules.
End of turn 10. Allies don’t need to hold all 3 cities one turn.

My home brew attempt to stream line the games. I only have the 2004 edition but i tried to write it generically.

Interested in ways to make it more clear and if there are issues with other versions

Thanks,

@the-captain Oh damn! I never read the book, but I did see the HBO flick with Rutgar Hauer in the mid 90s hehe. It had a good set up in the intro, playing the film reels, but with an alternative narration. Failed D-Day as the premise right? And then everything going to hell after. Seems like a potentially interesting scenario. Like that one and the Man in the High Castle both work a similar “what if” angle. I always thought A&A in 1942 was a bit like ‘what if Japan had won at Midway’, cause like Charlton Heston and Henry Fonda couldn’t get the job done, and that explains why Japan is all Globe trotting in the endgame lol. That would be like my head cannon to explain what’s happening on J1 in 1942.2.

For a PvP game you never really get the chance to see it unfold, but in SP vs the AI in tripleA, the endgame of virtually every WW2 map can go like Alexa Davalos straight through the portal into Invasion USA lol. Like that boardgame Amerika right, but with a Global map instead of just North America I guess? Seems like it could be cool!

@dsumner

Cool! I can’t wait! Keep going!

here is the link for the new updated map, it hasn’t changed much

Update September 2022:

I just found this one:

“The war is the same, but occurs in an alternate universe where the Earth’s land formation happened
differently.”

(From the Rules: https://www.axisandallies.org/forums/assets/uploads/files/1661014153409-g40-alt-universe-rules-vb1.4-8.1.2022.pdf )

So Axis and Allies… just on another map.

Will check this one out asap…

Kursk for sure, we need a late war game

Its at HBG.

@buttersurge
Nice work. Any info on the scenario set up or homebrew rules?

@samrolley

Great! I looked at the original posts, and they’re really nice!

@blakeadam who are you talking to?

@general-6-stars I have a physical map that I have made. It’s mostly rules i am trying to develop. Thanks for showing me your map.

@private-panic Thanks very much, this seems to be what I am looking for.

@wadkat What conflict will be taking place on this map? Are the Central Powers rethinking surrendering, or is it a battle between communism and the West?

@jonahawesome said in Cold War / Using AA 1940 Global war board:

I’m setting it in the mid-1950s / Late
Experimenting with it and making I can get some ideas from y’all

here is some statistic on what people bid in bm306-03.PNG

@dishero Thanks very much! Please do give it a playtest as you have time; I’m without a group to play with at the moment and the more eyes the better, of course.

This is the correct topic for G40 Balance Mod rules questions:
https://www.axisandallies.org/forums/topic/27451/g40-balance-mod-rules-and-download/

@tincanofthesea when I designed the game I tried very hard to allow it to replicate any action that actually happened during the war.
The war started in June 1950, by August North Korea nearly pushed the Allies off Korea completely.
So yeah, that can happen in the game… although it isn’t very easy.
Another example is that I changed the movement value for naval units from 4 to 5. My reason was that it was impossible to transfer units from the West coast (Inchon) to the East coast (Wonsan) in one move. This actually happened during the war. In October 1950 Marines were pulled from Inchon to Wonsan.
The turns are month based. One turn round (both players have moved) equals one month.
