OK, Iraq modified.

I also gave myself back the 3 IPCs I lost from Southern France being convoyed, as per the house rules.

Kenya can still be convoyed, though, so I lost 1 there.

[Guest]

Lots of edits, but the game is interesting so far :lol:

[Guest]

Next testing game in triple and the French and Anzac should be made into computer controlled countries that are set to do nothing. Saves a lot of clicking.

[Shin-Ji]

So, I’m attacking Sweden.  Always hated those guys.  I changed the TT and the units of Sweden and Switzerland to Neutral-Allied before I did, to avoid the clickwork of going around and changing every other Neutral.

I’ll need your orders about the scramble to protect that poor transport off Wales.

[gamerman01]

I’m counting 22 base income for UK Pac instead of 21.  If I’m right, you probably need to add 2 IPC’s to UK Pac

There needs to be an upgrade price from mid to major IC.  I’ll set it at 12.

Sweden will not be included in the Russian 3 IPC NO’s because it does not start the game pro-Axis.  For consistency, the Russian NO is for pro-Axis, German, or Italian continental Europe territories

[gamerman01]

You guys are doing a great job of implementing the house rules onto 2nd edition G40
I like how the reduced transport price gives Japan more transports J1
The map looks good to me, and I’m happy nothing seems to have “exploded”

With an extra NO, Russia will be harder to crack.
Probably should have bought a sub instead of one of those tanks!
You can disrupt 2 NO’s with a sub in 125, and 1 just by building one into 112  :-)

Perhaps the Russian NO for European territories should only be 2.  3 always seemed a bit extreme to me.

@Gamerman01:

If you are counting british columbia… it is assigned to uk europe. I tested it earlier. However if you are referring to something else. Normally UK pacific has 17 ipc. It loses one from West India and gains 5 from Anzac under the new rules. So that leaves 21. No scramble. Admittedly I was tempted… but 3 vs 4 ain’t proper odds and you have foregone sea lion at this point anyways.

[gamerman01]

ANZAC has 6, not 5

Maybe you overlooked Victoria?

Queensland - 2
NSW - 2
New Zealand - 1
Victoria - 1

Didn’t want Shin Ji to miss your scramble order
