Yes to all your questions.
When Germany activates Finland (3 icps), Hungary (3 icps), Bulgaria (4 icps) and Romania (6 icps) Germany adds these amounts (16 icps) to there income total. Also each one of these pro-axis neutrals collects the same amount for there own income.
The pro-axis minors can buy each turn and place in there territories only. Finland only in Capital.
I actually had different colors for all pro neutrals in game. With Pro-axis neutrals for thee above 4 with different color armies you can see what the Germans are buying and not getting confused if you make them all German looking pieces. Keeps the buyer honest or others can see the buy.

The buy most times in game per turn is Finland 1 Inf, Hungary 1 Inf, Bulgaria 1 Art, and Romania 1 Tank or sometimes 2 Inf.

Germany also likes to buy a Major factory in Romania to get a bunch of Inf for fodder quicker to the front or Mechs, Art for blitzing or a stack of tanks to run down to Leningrad or push into Stalingrad or a naval base in Romania and if Russia income allows them to go to war against Germany turn 4.

Vichy is a must in my opinion, even if you get the worse case situation and get nothing. Southern France being Vichy blocks Italy from being conquered through France. This is a good reason why you may not want to take Switzerland as the Axis.

Pic of tiles. Labels from packs along with case.
There are extra colours here so we may either incorporate new types of bases or change colour scheme with play testing.

Anzac defender,

I would wait until HBG’s newest map comes out. It’s far more aesthetically pleasing than the current version, and the rules will also be more encompassing. It’s the 1936 map as far as I know name-wise. They might call it something else when they release it. I will mention too though that you might wait for a little while if you go for that one, because progress on development is still on-going.

Hi, Ben,

Yeah, Wikipedia plays a big part in my research. But I stumble across other websites as Iâ€™m hunting for things also. Sometimes I find declassified official documents from the time. I also use other games in my collection, like War in Flames and Battlewagon, where the designers did the research, and came to their own conclusions about how to fudge things. I used to be in Military Intelligence when I was active duty army. I spent six years at NSA (â€œIn God we trust. All others we monitorâ€) :wink: So I developed the habit of confirming intelligence from multiple sources whenever possible. Iâ€™m still in the National Guard, actually. But I switched my MOS to MP so I didnâ€™t have to drive so far for drills.

Midnight,

Good job on the research. Every time I start to do it for land forces, I get distracted by all the different sources, and how they use different methods for listing things. Yeah, with the way A&A works, where the infantry of one country is equal to the infantry of every other country (unless you are using the elite units in Global â€™39), then you have to reflect differences in troop and equipment quality by using different ratios to represent one unit.

One idea Iâ€™ve toyed with is using the same ratio for everyoneâ€™s infantry, (like 1 for every three divisions) but then reflecting the differences in firepower by assigning different ratios for artillery. For instance, at the start maybe Germany gets an artillery unit for every 2 infantry, and France gets one for every 5 infantry, or something along those lines. The problem there, of course, is that the French (and Russians) really really liked artillery, and it made up a bigger percentage of their overall forces. So it would not be entirely satisfying from a historical perspective. For the same reasons, I am reluctant to just start them off with a bunch of SS units. Although I suppose I could just not call them SS units. But Iâ€™d know. Iâ€™D KNOW, and it would bug me :-D

Ben,

I sent you a message.

It’s really just a list of questions and suggestions. It’s more difficult to do this over an iPod than I expected.

Regardless, I hope it knocks down the despair a bit.
