@the-captain right on I’ll go ahead and bust out the Waffen fix then. One less thing to keep track of for them. No Panzer Armies in Basic correct ?
So far that’s the hardest thing to keep track of. One just needs to be deliberate about it. i want to eventually post what I find to work best for a triplea play style. Still figuring it out though.
Are they experienced triplea players ? Either way will be some good play testing .
Awesome 
Correct - no Armies of any kind in Basic Expansion.
Those of our members who want’s to play TripleA have some experience with it:+1:
I’m the one lagging behind with TripleA - but even though FTF is my favorite - I’ll get there eventually:relaxed:
@the-captain right on I’ll put a fix out before next week. It’ll be good to get their input. I’m sure they’ll find something I’ve missed. : )
Change Log: 6.5

Fix Waffen Infantry showing twice in Purchase Window when Basic Rules are activated. Prevent Wolfpack from auto placing in Sea Zone 113 when Basic Rules activated.
Did you get in contact with Bendix, concerning use of Basic Expansion?
@barnee
In late November, our Axis & Allies Wiking-Con Event will include the use of Global 1940 Basic Expansion during most games.
Some new players are to be introduced to the rules for the first time.
Concerning the use of Axis & Allies Global 1940 House Rules Expansion, we recommend, that players first play a few games with the Global 1940 Basic Expansion.
In this way, the rules and game mechanisms become easier to comprehend.
We suggest that the rule concerning Strategic Rail Movement should be implemented in the Global 1940 Basic Expansion.
We have play tested the Global 1940 Basic Expansion during our latest games, and players ask for the SRM to be included.
This will most likely be part of the updated version of the Global 1940 Basic Expansion.
@barnee
Is it possible - (if/when) - to include the Strategic Rail Movement Capacity rule in Global 1940 Basic Expansion for TripleA?
@the-captain Actually I just checked and i left it active. I thought it was turned off and had an option for it, but I guess not lol So yea it’s good to go.
I wonder if I should make a MapOption so people can turn it off ? Idk, it’s pretty easy to ignore if you don’t wanna use it. Besides, like the new guys say, it Rocks

Hi! I just have a question:
What happens with the technology Increased Factory Production when the Heavy Industry rules is used? Thank you!
We’ll include the Strategic Rail Movement Capacity in the Basic Expansion.
I’ll post the updated Global 1940 Basic Expansion within the next few weeks.
The Rules Clarification in the Axis & Allies Global 1940 House Rules Expansion thread, also concerns parts of the Global 1940 Basic Expansion.
Should all these rules be used or is it possible to use just one part of them? Thank you!
The Global 1940 Basic Expansion will be revised & updated in 2022, with the changes that are mentioned in this thread as well as in the Rules Clarification.
The revised Global 1940 Basic Expansion will include a few more rules & units than originally intended.
This is due to the requests made by new players.
The revised edition is expected to be available in Early 2022.
Hello @The-Captain I am finally able to try out this Basic Expansion! It’s been around half a year since I have played Axis and Allies and I cant wait to play again. Anyways, I got these printed as well as the decal sheets in the Regular Expansion. Going to try and measure the individual roundel decals and glue them on plastic pieces whenever I can. Only problem is storage I think because we use a pool table and A&A 1940 fits most of it with the exception of being able to have the little supply boxes around the map.
We got a larger container to hold my extra pieces I got from HBG (yes, I went on some sort of frenzy and bought 70 dollars worth of stuff because they didn’t remove shipping from the order.) I got a research development chart from HBG so maybe I can implement some of the features from there with the Basic Expansion.
If I don’t have enough space for everything on the full board, is it possible to only the ones specific to a certain theatre and not be unbalanced? We did this a few times because the full game takes 2 days for an entire turn and it takes 1 day for 1 turn on just Europe or Pacific (sometimes if we go quick we can get by with two turns)
I hope you see this message, thanks.
“Turn” means round, right (all nations going once). If it’s one nation per day, it is really slow.
So much possible modifications and house rules, and not enough time to play!
All I can say, is that you must try your way forward.
After a few games you’ll know if it is unbalanced.
We use only the Basic Expansion for training with new players.
After 4-5 games all new players use the Axis & Allies Global 1940 House Rules Expansion - step by step - adding one section at a time.
Try it - and see what works for you.
