Due to the fact that whilst most of your rules are historically accurate, their execution I have some problems with. To fix that, I wrote an article on changes to The Captain’s rules:
Axis and Allies each take turns all together [G40]
-
This has been brought up before, but I thought more about it tonight and it really seems like a good idea to me. Basically all of the Axis powers take their turns together and then the Allies do the same. On the Pacific side, it wouldn’t change much, if it did it would only balance the game more. On Europe I’m not entirely sure how this would play out, but I have a feeling it could work pretty well. My concerns would be the Taranto raid not happening because Italy would go before UK, so I’m not sure how to balance it. Also, the UK and US would be able to make super strong landing in mainland Europe. I’m not entirely sure how to balance this either, possibly by adding some sort of Atlantic wall feature. Overall I think this would be great to increase game speed if it could be worked out.

Try keeping Italy neutral against the UK/France until turn 2.
-
@general-6-stars ooh thanks for the idea, that would probably solve it. I’m gonna try testing this out soon, still not sure how to boost Germany’s ability to defend the Atlantic Wall, but maybe when I test it won’t matter as much

Well based on players axis have the advantage
Could try Italy not neutral to France so they can send in a few ground.

@general-6-stars I know in a normal game that the Axis is favored, but with this rule change I kinda feel like the Allies would be favored especially in Europe

Ya I get that. All I can say is test it out. Good luck
-
@tincanofthesea Well, how did the play tests go?
-
@Eric-Poppleton well I tried it by myself some and it sorta worked. My goal was to get my buddies into the game and try it with them but we’re still in the learning phase-figured it’s only a valid test if they have developed strategies in the normal game
