Need ideas for secret objectives

@GigaSmoot Hey, since no one has answered yet, I figured I could leave you some feedback… Although take it with a grain of salt, because I am not that experienced in Global 1940.

First, I really like the idea of simplified National Objectives! It is true that the basic Axis and Allies is already complicated and Global 1940 tops that.

However, I think the NOs favor the Axis too much in Europe. Germany will push the Soviets to Moscow and occupy so many allied-territories that it will drown in IPCs. Russis however wont get any additional income through NOs until Germany has already been pushed out of its territory. I think with your NOs, Germany will snowball pretty hard.

But again, I am not an expert in Global 1940, but that’s my first inpression.

My setup for Dutch East Indies for my game if your interested in is
Sumatra 2 inf
Borneo 2 inf
Celebes 2 inf
Dutch New Guinea 1 inf
Java 1 inf 1 tank
Cruiser, Destroyer and a sub in Java sea zone with a naval base.

Argo is correct in a way. J
there were a lot of tanks on Java, but most ships were in Java sea zone. When it was attacked Dutch only had 5 ships but allies had some there to.
Not a fan of an IC on Dutch East Indies. Japan just take and use plus collect 11 icps if game has can capture IC and use next turn.

Hello, I have been scrolling threw the HBG website and have found many interesting custom units with either no rules, or a rules pdf that is no longer available. I had a few ideas, and I would love feedback/more ideas.

Mercenary’s - 1IPC/turn/infantry, max 3. This could be cool feature if you need temporary forces in a certain area you could hire mercenarys for 2-3 turns, but if you just left them there it would cost you way more money then they are worth.

Assassins - Infantry that cost 5 IPC, get a target select on 1 on a D12 against a commander (Commanders expansion set)

Military Police - I was thinking they could increase rail transport, and decrease partisan activity. or they could allow transit on damaged rail.

I would love feedback, and more ideas.

The problem with 1936 is that Com China is so weak at the start of 1936 that KMT can easily destroy them within two turns and USSR can’t do anything about it since they can’t Lend-Lease due to Com China not boarding USSR.

I’m still thinking the 2 dollar Russians are unbeatable.  unless they are 1-1 or 0-2 or something.

Bring in all the mec/arm combinations and double supporting artillery you want.  at 37 IPC’s a turn, I’m putting 18 men on the board each round.  Germany is not going to be able to do anything about that.

Oh and lets not forget, once I have a fat stack, if things don’t look good, I can call in the Russian winter, and defend with a $2 unit at 3 or less.

@MEGAEINSTEIN:

in WWII there where competitive advantages that the powers had:

France - ? (running away)

it was too easy, but still made me laugh… :roll:

@aaaaaa2011:

Tell me if you think aa needs bunkers they would increase the defense defending units in the province buy 1 so instead of infantry defending at 2 they would defend at 3 with a bunker 4 with 2 bunkers etc to simulate the west wall sigfried line iwo jima okinawa etc. it would be like artilly with infantry onle for defense they would be purchased like aa guns bunkers for ground aa guns for air tell me what you think?

Check out the blockhouse rules here: http://www.axisandallies.org/forums/index.php?topic=17701.0

Atomic Bomb- Each Atomic Bombs costs 10 IPC and only one can be made each turn. When dropped no AA roll is made. Effects: 3 dice of variable damage and one die of permanent damage. The first turn this can be developed is turn 7. Prerequisite: Heavy Bombers technology.

3 dice reduce the income of the player, and a 4th die is permanent reduction. If you A-bomb Germany and roll a 4, the German player gets only 6 IPC from it for the rest of the game and can only place 6 units.  You cant get it until turn 7 ( really not possible anyway unless you roll perfectly) and aa guns get no roll against the bomber. Also, you can only drop one per turn.

According to the rules it is a 5th tier technology which requires you to have 4 other technologies in the same category and one of them must be Heavy Bombers.

If you calculate the odds of getting it more or less it may appear on about turn 12-15 as long as you always have a researcher in that category working on it. Most games are over by that time.
