A typical situation for this would be Japan trying to bombard the west coast, you have to bring the troops via trn, but you dont want to send more than one inf a turn, assuming you want to do this for multiple turns, you have to load the trn (e.g. with troops from hawai) in the NCM of the turn before you start your attack…
New units

It makes them weaker then they should be against infantry but it seems pretty reralistic. Thank you very much.

An infantry that moves 2 for 6 or 7 IPC? Why not just buy armor for 5 IPC, moves 2, attacks and defends on 3?
Also, would cavalry count as infantry when boarding a transport?
-
I would suggest no cheaper than 3 ipc’s because of thier improved movement, they can move with a stack of tanks and be instant fodder which is the role of the man… even if they defend for less, they are still more useful than a man is in my opinion… hell i know a ton of people who would pay 1 ipc for a unit that had 0 Attack and 0 defense and moved one a turn, hell i would … drop a stack of forty of them the first turn with germany and then load up with tanks from their on out
-
You mean 16? :-D
-
cheap fodder … if they cost two 15 hell they attack at a one… i might even get to hit… but i was reffering to my combat medic
attack 0
def 0
move 1
cost 1best fodder in the world
-
shouldn’t this be in House Rules?
-
well probably … i blame the brilliant one for starting it here
:-D

Forget about Calvary… the polish found out how well they held up against mechanized calvary (if you get my drift). Think mechanized infantry consider:
cost 4, attack 2, defend 2, move 2 ok then you make this piece have more value and a distinction beyond the artillery piece , you need to install a rule where each matching tank increases one mech infantry attack value +1.
to summarize:
each artillery adds +1 for one infantry
each tank adds +1 for one mech infantryBonus:
add each fighter adds +1 to each matching tank.
this creates a combined arms feel so peeps might buy a greater variety of units to help solve “infantry push mechanic”
-
That last idea seems pretty cool! …but what would you use to represent these Mech Infantry?
-
ahh i reckon you could use the APC from New World Order… if you wasted money buying that Axis and Allies upgrade like i did…
