The most effective russian players I’ve encountered are the ones that are able to build up a force that is able to threaten a counter on a german stack. If a good german player wants to go for Moscow they are able to get it, however I’ve seen plenty games where the UK/USA are putting enough pressure on the German player for him to stop just in front of Moscow. If the Russian player only has bought inf at this point there is not much of a threat for the German player to keep russia contained and slowly kill it economically. However if there is a stack of paired inf/art the pushback power is a lot bigger and thus Germany can be challenged and Russia may be able to break the German wall.
94Canuck's Global 1940 Alpha +3 Setup Charts and Game Aids

Been MIA. On holidays in Hawaii actually, JUST visited Pearl Harbour today for the first time. Spent from 0900 to 1600 there today. Very moving. Reminding me to check this site, I see that that Alpha 3 is finally finished. I will be updating all these charts when I return home from vacation.
Hope you’re still enjoying your vacation! I thank you for taking the time to make these charts and even more to keep them up to date!

***EDIT:Â December 31st, 2011 - Updated NO Chart to reflect USA NO from November 17th. ***
Hello everyone, here are updated charts for the recently finalized Alpha +3 ruleset for Global 1940. Â These are similar to the Alpha +2 I previously posted.
I like a simplistic approach to the aids. Â I always disliked how to many things were jammed into one chart so I tried to keep it simple. Â
Lastly, all of these have been designed around a 8.5 x 11 (Letter) size so no funky paper needed. Â Any suggestions please post here
One more thing, don’t use the photobucket files, they are reduced and lower quality, use the mediafire links below.

Done.

Awesome sauce, thanks a lot!

Super Job!
Perhaps one little ‘mistake’: On the research chart there was a picture of an AA Gun in the Rocket Reserach field. I think an Airbase was a better picture, because, the Airbases launch now the rockets…We will take your great charts for our games. Best greetings!

Sweet Thank you! :-D

One more little point:
The Germans get the 5 IPC NO, if they controls Volgograd, Leningrad and / or Moscow. But in your NO Chart, there stay: If the Axis…
Original:
“When Germany Is at War with the Soviet Union:
• 5 IPCs per territory if Germany controls Novgorod (Leningrad), Volgograd (Stalingrad), and/or Russia (Moscow). Theme: High strategic and propaganda value.” -
Updated.

Wow, thanks for the fast update! Yesterday, i have enough time to check all of your charts.
I find this two points for the accuracy:1. Your wrote on the NO Chart for the Russians NO: “3 IPC for EACH original AXIS or pro-Axis neutral territory under Soviet control.”
I think, that someone can understand this incorrect and collect perhaps this NO, if for example Russia occupies Korea from Japan.
This was the original text from Larry Harris: “3 IPCs for each original German, Italian, or pro-Axis neutral territory that the Soviet Union controls.”2. Setup Chart UK: added: “France: 1 Tank, 1 Artillerie”
I the best sense, greetings!

Updated.

I notice that on France set up chart you have a Cruiser on sz112. It should be on sz110.
Thanks for the hard work on these charts! -
Are these compatible with 1940.2?

Are these compatible with 1940.2?

sorry to be the one to ask this (again) i really like your charts and i’m really thankful that you made them…but…any chance you will be updateing these charts anytime soon to match the “2nd eddition” out of the box set up and NO’s and stuff? i think its some minor tweaks but since i have no clue how to do all this way cool stuff…maybe its more work than i think it is.
anyway…thanks again for these charts.
-
Thanks is WOW…
But i need a strategic raid, battle strip
Is just an idea -
Man how do you come up with this stuff? Thanks a lot! Hey, have you played a game with this set up and these rules? How did it go?

Will these ever be updated for second edition? They are too great to be forgotten.
