Global 1943 Expansion, Revised
-
I’ve got two quetions:
You say this is based on how 1943 usually looks like in a game with your house rules-I don’t understand why the industrial complex in Germany (which is not in range of the Allied bombers) is underground, whilst West Germany’s industrial complex (which is in range) is not.
Also, I noticed that he limit for Waffen-SS infantry is maxed out a 6, and yet there is 8 of them in the setup-does that mean that units that are part of Waffen-SS armies do not count toward the limit? Thank you!
Can you also make a battle calculator for this please? It’s quite hard to plan strategies without that. Thank you!
-
The number of Waffen-SS Infantry according to the German set up chart is 6:
- 3 Waffen-SS Infantry in Berlin (Germany)
- 1 Waffen-SS Infantry in Bryansk
- 2 Waffen-SS Infantry in Rostov - as part of 1st Waffen-SS Army
-
Shoot! When I saw Barnee’s screenshots of the Eastern Front, I thought there were two separate Waffen-SS infantry in addition to two Waffen-SS infantry in the army. This makes my assessment of German strength on the Eastern Front seriously weakened. Thank you!

@victoryfirst
Did you purchase Siredbloods map? -
@the-captain No. I really want to, but I don’t know how to contact siredblood. I looked on his website but I couldn’t find anything. I pm’ed him in AxisandAllies.org but he didn’t respond.

I know how to contact siredblood. You looking for his map 4.1 ? Latest version
-
@general-5-stars
We already have the original version and updated ones too.
I just contacted Siredblood at his website, since we’re adding Army Boards etc. to our own version - so, when the map is printed, Army Boards, Expanded National Production Chart etc. are attached to the game board map.
For the Global 1943 version, all these Army Boards are in use from game start.

OK Ill cancel my text.

@general-5-stars If that is an OOB map with a BBR look (so the land is tan/pink color and territory sizes are better but the IPC values are the same as OOB) then yes.
-
@the-captain I contacted him too via the website but I haven’t got any response yet.
-
Hm - we’ll see what happens:relaxed:

@victoryfirst said in Global 1943 House Rules Expansion:

A little thing I would like for you to add are that Soviet Partisans are allowed to be put in Yugoslavia, representing Tito and his communist forces.

We’ve now registered the Global 1943 game no. 25 in this gaming season (Oct. 2021 - April 2022).
7 players have participated in those 25 games.
All games were two-player games and face-to-face.
The game balance naturally depends on which strategy players use.
Nonetheless, during these 25 games, The Allies were victorious in 14 games, which leaves 11 victories to The Axis.
The Allied victories:
- Economic victories: 3
- Military victories: 11
The Axis victories:
- Economic victories: 9
- Military victories: 2
Those numbers more or less reflect the statistics that were applicable during the play testing periods in 2019 and 2020.

Wow! How much time do you have to play so many games? How long does each game take? I almost feel like you do this for a job. Almost.
-
As part of the Axis & Allies Global 1940 Expansion series, we start play testing the Engineer Unit.
December 7th, 2021 we will start the first game of Global 1943 - with this new unit.
More detailed information will follow.
