@gen-manstein
We had tons of fun playing your 1941 game:+1:
We’ll play it again with your new Normandy border changes as well as other changes you might make.
The major change that we had to make was using D6 - and replace a few of your units, with similar units from the Axis & Allies Global 1940 House Rules Expansion.
-
Thank you. Sounds good. Ya just the Normandy change and a added naval base in I think Quebec so guys don’t get confused with base being by New found-land I believe.
Baron gonna kill me for that. Lol . -
@gen-manstein heh heh yea baron won’t like that :)
-
Got a game next Saturday after tomorrow.
Kinda workin on charts
-
Final Charts

@gen-manstein
Looks great,
When do you have your final map version ready - with larger spaces for the crowded areas (such as Germany and other tty and sz that are crowded) etc.?
We would like to print that map, when it’s ready - since it’s quite costly to print a new map.
And also, eventually a rulebook would be needed, so that it would be easier to understand in depth and play the game - especially if new players would like to try it out.
-
Ya I’lm working on rulebook now. I”LL see what I can do for map changes.
Been working a bit more on my Cold War map for a fellow aa member for his game. More of a starter map but not final. Don’t think a map is ever final. Lol

@gen-manstein
Okay,

@the-captain said in GEN MANSTEIN’S 1941 Global War Game:
@gen-manstein
Okay,
Is it Mr. Murdochs Cold War game ?
Yes it is. He got a rough draft of map to his changes and now testing his game. Says already had to make a rule change. Lol
It happens all the time when new. Told him to start testing so he can get ideas on changes and such.

The Allies won. Was a great game. Axis was on the brink to win each turn. With Axis at there peak strength at the time when game starts its balls out. Got 6 turns in.
Germany got Moscow and Stalingrad and was able to hold Paris but Russia was able to take back Stalingrad from there Ural builds and Tankograd IC to help with allies victory.What hurt Germany most in game was he lost his fleet but main part was he lost a lot of his planes. But still was able to get Moscow with a good can opener Italians down through there southern route where they can only go through but forced Russia to put out 8 inf blockers in 2 territories around Moscow to delay the Germans a turn on a attack on Moscow if the Italians did try to take a territory in front or south of Moscow. SO now your looking at like 8-12 extra Inf that could of stayed in Moscow to defend on the main attack. Great moves there by axis.
The allies did have a decent D-day landing going on but was just a bit short on liberating Paris. But was able to run around north to West Germany for attacks and also took Oslo away to deny a 1 victory point from axis which helped too.
The allies did attack West Germany and Italians recaptured it back but the IC was destroyed in the 2 battles.
On the Pacific side US ended up grabbing all the 3 Island group NO’s to build there income up and did attack the huge Japan fleet and defeated them. Japans income went way down based on they also lost the oil money islands and had no navy left.UK navy left the Italians alone in Med and they were able to get the 3 3 island group NO’s plus all Med Island bonus point. But the UK Med fleet did help when it went to India and now its back in the Med. Couple transport buys would of taken away some of the 3 island group NO’s for Italy and also axis would of lost the 1 point all Med island Victory point in the next turn for UK.
Its nice to see in the game a Strong Italy. This game they can be strong based on with the right leadership and besides in other games nobody wants to play Italy or Russia but as you see only Game I know of where Russia can also still fight after losing Moscow. Nobody really knows what would of happened if Moscow fell in real war. But some may disagree but where here not to discuss that.
The 2 move Cruiser worked out great so we keep that. A CCP setup change and a build tweak is all that’s gonna get changed.
Here’s the charts after turn 6. Each country rolls for 2 National Advantages at start of game and uses for the whole game. Was only 4 techs this game and no spy’s stole any.
The 2 tech chart was great. At least you get to choose one or the other.
Thank You again for the General’s Fortress players ( ghr2, Carl, AA Mark, Justin, Duds, Chu ) and myself for showing up again !!!
Edit : The Germans control Leningrad so roundel is wrong on chart, but still have only 27 points. Axis needs 30 points at end of any turn for a victory.
-
@gen-manstein Love it ! When’s the next one ?
-
Hopefully in 4 weeks

Justin played Germany and did one heck of a great job at it. I played the US East and UK and had a hell of a time dealing with all the subs Germany and Italy had. I had to deal with about 33 subs in all in the Atlantic… Talk about a lot of fun–not. Justin put up with my many mistakes like with Tactical bombers being a 6 then a 4 and then a 3 for taking out subs. Many a time Justin had to correct me with my rolls and he was very patient each time. I could have done a lot better in the Mediterranean and was too focused on Europe proper but it all worked out. Italy ran rampant in the med but did not even try to take Cairo. Problem was Justin had a lot on his plate with Germany and Italy so it worked out the way it did. Thank you all… Had a great game but I am so sore from all the up and down. LOL
If you are in the Milwaukee area and would like to learn how to play this version – Like I am… Talk to the General and see if you can get an invite and come!!
