i think it was a great idea to lower the prices for both germany/japan and the allies.  when i played as britain in 6.1 i wanted to buy commandos every turn because they can do so much, but towards the end britain just didn’t have the ipcs.

I will look at this.  But it seems that the Axis will need help in 7.1v….lol

Germany always takes the Baltic States on turn 1 in our games. Russia can’t take it back until at war.

Thanks, I just thought it seemed a bit low.

We are playing again on Friday. Any chance it will be up Friday morning?

Russia is an ally after they are at war with the Axis. Lets just say they cannot activate any pro allied countries until they are at war with the axis.  This would be like italy being neutral until they are brought into the war.

If the subs fire in the First Strike phase they are detected for that round of combat.

The planes would fire on the subs once and then in the second round the surviving subs could submerge.

I do not have any official ruling however that event occurred in a recent game my group played. We ruled that once Vichy government fell all Vichy territory not occupied by Axis forces reverted to France. All moneys were collect into France while Paris was liberated. Then all territories reverted to Free French rules once Paris fell again. (UK collecting the money and FF forces conduct moves with UK)

The reasoning behind this is the initial establishment of Vichy resulted in extraordinary times. The German’s had just conducted the most successful military campaign in history. The French military was in a very difficult place. Once a government was established in Vichy an actual French government called upon its military forces to stand down. While Vichy was a German puppet it was still a French government. Once Vichy collapses it would never have risen again.

Hi,

This one ? : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iUVqIVjaipY

Yes, that is it! Thank you.

If someone could make a video, but longer, of their game, at least till all powers are at war, it would help.

It would help some of us that don’t have a regular play group to learn it faster.

I’m going to try to provide a place to set this game up at my house and learn it on my own, but any help, visually, would help as well. :-)

We are using 6.1.  We will begin round 14  on our next excursion into battle.  The Axis is pretty secure in Europe, South America, Africa, and has captured all of the Soviet victory cities.  Novosibirsk (the eastern most factory) is still in soviet hands and producing about three infintry a turn but they will not make it back to Moscow or Stalingrad in time to even challenge the Germans.  The east is the real concern for the axis.  This next turn will determine the victor I believe.  Three victory cities are in play and can go either way.

Thanks Tigerman. I just wanted to make sure we were interpreting correctly.

Yes, that is cool Koba. Thanks for sharing! :-D

Yes

Have to build on next turn. Newly built naval units may only be placed in sea zone with a Naval Base and IC that were there at beginning of turn.

Thanks

Nice.  I like the pen rule.

@koba:

I’ve been waiting for these too. I have a feeling they’ll be rolled out when/after global 1936 comes out. It appears they are concentrating on getting the new map and rules sorted out.

Koba, I think your right. I think they will start with the map and rules, and then move forward from there. :-)

I’ve been checking out the photos and progress of the Global 1936 play tests. It’s turn 10 and Germany and the USSR don’t look to be at war yet. Operation Torch looks like a go and the Japanese seem pretty much tied up.

How many turns does this game go to? (or has this been figured out yet?).

Board Game Geek. type in Global War 1939. Then go down to files where it says 6.1 setup and it will say revision.

I do understand that there is a new map with a 36,39,and 42 scenario setup being worked on and play testing. but is there a different set up for the current 1939 map, like 1940,41, or 42? just wondering.
