To participate in the Axis & Allies Global 1940 Expansion World Championship the following must be fullfilled:
- A minimum of 9 points are required to qualify for the Axis & Allies Global 1940 Expansion World Championship
- Games that are played on TripleA also count towards the 9 points Minimum Limit that are required to qualify for the championship.
- All games that count towards the minimum score must be recorded and published at the Global 1940 & 1943 Game Report thread at this forum with supporting pictures and text.
- All players must be a member of Axis & Allies.org
Note:
How to score points in order to qualify for the Axis & Allies Global 1940 Expansion World Championship :
During an Axis & Allies G40 Wiking-Con event the scoring points are registered like this:
- Winning player: 3 points
- Draw (a): 1 point to each player if both players have played same number of G40 HRE games (+/- 2 G40 HRE games)
- Draw (b): 1 point to the player with most played G40 HRE games - and 2 points to the player with less played G40 HRE games.
During any other Axis & Allies G40 HRE event (if players either play at home, on TripleA or at any A&A event other than Wiking-Con) the scoring points are registered like this:
- Winning player: 1 point
- Draw: no points to any player
Important:
In addition to the above Scoring System any player will score 1 point each time that 10 G40 HRE games are completed - both the winning player as well as the losing player (also both players by draw).
Both TripleA and board games count towards this score.
