Just to add to wittmann, the Russians are played with different political rules on each map (Europe/Pacific). They are still one power though, so you can send units from the Euro side to the Pac side if you want. For example if you are at war w/Japan you can send Russian ground and air units that start on the Euro map into China to help prop them up (because the Chinese are also at war w/Japan). You could even send those Russian ftrs to Burma or India (via China) once the UK Pac is at war with Japan (but just because you can doesn’t mean you should LOL)
ABs & NBs a great evolutionary step for A&A

The introduction of Air bases & Naval bases to me, has got to be one of the greatest additions to the Axis & Allies franchise ever… it truly defines 1940 Global as an A&A Edition that can say… “My game board is so huge, I need units to extend the movement of units”. If Axis & Allies is “Terminator”, than Axis & Allies Global is “T2: Judgment Day”, and those bases are a huge part of it’s success.

And for people who want to upgrade from cardboard, HBG makes some nice acrylic markers for both base types.

I totally agree YoungGrasshopper. Also with the movie you mentioned T2 should have been the final one in that series. Made perfect sense for everything to end in that movie.
