Hello everyone. I’ve been viewing this forum for years now and have finally registered. I first started playing Axis and Allies Classic in 1994 and have followed the game through its many incarnations. I haven’t had a chance to read a lot of recent posts but I’ll try to catch up. Right now trying to navigate your board on my phone as I’m, eh, between laptops. I’ve always had a habit of mixing game pieces and making up new rules. I guess when you grow up in the seventies that’s an occupational hazard–lots of board games and not too many computer ones? I have a project I’d like to introduce to get some feedback on–hopefully it’s not too much like “The Cones of Dunshire,” (Parks and Recreation–forget the season) but the nice accountants liked that one. Anyway nice to finally be here.
New UK Pacific Nation (video added)

Hello everyone, just wanted to share a YouTube video explaining one of the house rules we use at the Cliffside Bunker. We have been using it for a while with a lot of success.

New UK Pacific Nation:
The United Kingdom Pacific economy will now operate as a separate nation apart from the United Kingdom Europe economy. This new UK Pacific nation will absorb all ANZAC units in the initial setup, as well as all original ANZAC territories making a combined UKP starting income of 27 IPCs. Also, the UK Pacific will use ANZAC gray pieces, ANZAC roundels, and ANZAC’s turn in the order of play.
Calcutta will remain the UK Pacific capital, Sydney is no longer a capital city unless promoted to one due to Political Exile (see below). Any territory controlled by one of these two separate UK nations (UK Pacific, or UK Europe) regardless of location, will count toward the overall income of the individual UK nation that controls it.
New UK Political Situation:
Political Exile
If and when London is captured by an Axis power and the UK Europe nation has relinquished all their income, they may continue to collect for territories they still control on the map. However, Ottawa must now become their new capital city for the remainder of the game, even if London is liberated.
