2nd Edition, WWII: Struggle for Europe and Asia

Similar to the Pacific version I created recently, the Europe version takes the 1942 Second Edition map and makes all the territories in the Pacific neutral, making them impassable and removing Japan from the game (also denying the US, the Soviet Union, and the UK income from the Pacific side of the board).

To win, Germany needs to capture 5-6 (the players decide) victory cities and hold them until the end of the US player’s turn. To win, the Allies need to capture Berlin and hold it until the end of Germany’s turn.

All other rules stay the same.

If you’re interested in playing with me, let me know.

I like the setup information for Axis and Allies Global Second Edition 1939 and was wondering if there is a setup for the global game for 1936 which include the Italian - Ethiopian conflict, or if there is global setup starting in 1937 which would primarily include China and Japan?

@CrazyIvan
a lot of time : ) dl Pact of Steel and open the games folder and then open POS 2 and it will explain what triplea can do, mostly : )

If you run into something it can’t do, you need to make a feature request or have slide ruling capability to java code it yourself : )

In the 90’, I played a couple of Xeno game and with and without gamerparadise rules.
It was well balanced but not enough for me.
The rules are not bad but the gameboard is ugly.
Over the year me and my friend changes the rules and created our own map.

I have it, but am holding onto it for further playtesting on the set-ups.

Europe is being slightly changed in terms of the map, and there will be some minor additions to the rules.  These changes will probably be part of the map/rule package I am looking into producing.  Pacific would be released this way as well if all falls together.

Cheers

@Imperious:

its on his site. look it up.

Here is one of the threads on the subject.

Thanks.  I’ve been reading the site a lot, but this thread is great.  Again, thank you.

It’s amazing how players like Krieghund, Adlertag, and Imperious Leader got to help shape the AA50 game.  If it were me, I’d be really proud of that.  I’m really glad someone was pushing for Italy in the game.  IMO it was one of those “About Time!” decisions.

yah, with three diffrent idealogies competing for contol, that would be cool, but i was going for a game that was a little less black and white

leaders of arab countires are more often allied with western powers than with Islam, Russia and China are not on the best terms either, and in this game i am going to make it possible for Russia and China to have full scale war with each other. Also its not like the US, UK, and France are able to agree on eyerthing either. I think it is best if they are seperate powers.

sure their will still be too sides, NATO, headed by the US, and the Warsaw Pact, headed by the Soveits. but the alliances are not set.
In fact at the start of the game all countries should still be at peace. each power can either buy NATO or WARSAW Pact vicotry points with 10 IPCs, of course doing that lowers the effectiveness of their armies the next turn, and so should only do this when they are not expecting attack

THe US and USSR are the only countries that start out active, If  US/UK/France are attack all of those countries can become active, of course I am going to have diplomacy rolling that can weaken or change the NATO alliance

China, and India are different. You can gain control of them diplomaticly or you can attack them to makes them active. if you attack one, the other becomes contoled by your alliance

The diplomacy thing will be clearer later, I also might make diffrent national objectives for each contry so that when you have more than two players, diplomacy can be represented by people instead of dice rolls.
