G40 League House Rule project

  • 25 24 23 22 15 11 10 Official Q&A Mod

    It’s not unheard of for ANZ to get a factory in Saudi Arabia, Iraq, and/or Iran fairly early, too.  Then they can produce transports, ground units, air, whatever to interrupt the Italian-German moves.  Or ANZ take Brazil, build a complex, build a transport…. lots of tactics…


  • How is the league house rule project going? Is it going to be ready for the new season?

  • 25 24 23 22 15 11 10 Official Q&A Mod

    Good question
    No, I haven’t been working on it lately.  I could, though.  Not sure if there’s enough interest or not

    Do players want to play it next league season, and if so, what is needed to get it ready by then.

  • 25 24 23 22 15 11 10 Official Q&A Mod

    A few are pretty interested, yes.

    What is needed is people to play it now to find any obvious major problems.

    Like with 1st edition, there was the airbases scramble only on islands rule, and the unlimited fighters scrambling rule, just for 2 examples.  Those were obvious major problems.  :-)

    I’m still willing to playtest, if anyone on my level is willing to play.  I fear that me against Gamerman wouldn’t really prove anything except that he’s the much better player. :P

    I am fine to play against you Shin Ji. If you can set it up, but perhaps Gamerman wants to make a few final edits.

    However. I personally think it will take more playtests. So I suggest approaching players, who are known to play many games, and ask them to playtest this. Otherwise it might end up being to late for the next league season and that seems like a waste.

    You can use what’s in the spreadsheet - it hasn’t been changed in months.  Shin Ji is a good one to play, since he’s done it before and has the TripleA startup file

    can a destroyer go past a sub on the opposite side?

  • 25 24 23 22 15 11 10 Official Q&A Mod

    I don’t understand your question yet, dawgoneit
    Is this a question about my house rules?
    Or is it a question about 2nd edition G40?  If so, please post in the FAQ thread

    this question is about a league game

    this was legal.  Destroyers can move past enemy subs.  Subs cannot move past enemy destroyers however.

    “Subs cannot move past enemy destroyers however.” that is where I was confused.
    thank you kindly.

    I was wondering if theres a sub stopping transports from loading up before they go can they move then pick up pieces and use them in battle?

    WRONG thread, dawgoneit, but to answer your question, subs never stop transports from loading up, it’s only unescorted transports wanting to do an amphibious assault from the sub’s zone that you have to watch out for

    so if I have 5 transports and some ships I can load them up with pieces then move them and battle on land with those pieces some wheres else even though there is an enemy sub where I am sitting at the beginning of my turn?  :?

    Please post rules questions in the stickied G40 FAQ thread - different area of the forums - is not in “league”

    And yes, the enemy sub that is in your zone at the beginning of your turn does not prevent your 5 transports from loading and going to conduct an amphibious assault elsewhere.  The rule is ONLY that subs in the DESTINATION sea zone of an amphibious assault prevent unescorted transports from unloading amphibious assault ground units.

    Hey Gamerman, we need clarification on how the UK economy is supposed to be handled.  Is UK Pacific still a thing?  I remember the discussion of having a split capital between India and NSW, but there’s nothing about that in the document.

    Also, what should the starting money be for each power?
