Global 42 Quicker, faster

So the turn order is normal G40 ?
That is much better :)

Nothing is concrete about G42 yet.

Well, over at Harrisgamedesign, Krieghund said this:

Yes, it’s legit, but there are some errors in the post that need to be corrected, most notably the turn order.

Wonder what the actual turn order is then…

Too few units.  Not very interesting I think.

Too few units indeed, looks like an almost direct copy of the 1942 2nd edition setup, tweaked to fit the bigger board.

Rather than a “from the ground up” setup.
Good news is, in the spirit of my some what well know Global 1941 setup, I have made a global 1942 setup with more units.

This setup was copied and pasted by someone, 99% accurate since November.

ANZAC should have 2 infantry and one AA gun in India though.

Thanks for the pictures texasranger! :)

oztea, I’m going to use your 1941 and 1942 set ups as well at some point. Variant set ups are very interesting! :)

I was excited when I first saw this but there is way too few units. I will try this out, but most likely I will be making some revisions. Too bad. I bet they playtested this as much as they tested 1914.  :-(

Why is this in house rules? Isn’t it official?

I see no official word from Larry. It looks like an Oztea setup and not anything Larry made.

It could be something Greg “asked” to run at his event.
Wrote himself, submitted for approval, and got rubber stamped.

Larry himself would probably have made some noise about this if he had any hand in it.

On a related note, an updated and permanant thread (that I’ll update) for my 1941 setup.

The changed turn order means for the first time in an A&A game, the Axis cannot prevent the Canadians landing in the UK or the 4 US units landing in North Africa.
The two German Subs in the Atlantic are sitting dead too and the UK can build 30 IPCs of Home Fleet to cover the Scapa Flow Battleship.

I find the turn order weird.
If Japan goes before UK, who is to stop them running riot too?
That US Solomons fleet is dead and the Japanese Carrier and Battleship off Borneo will survivd to fight another day and not get hit by a combined UK/Anzac one two.

Ah found the turn order on here.

Let me know how it plays out. Not an appealing map to me and I am not interested in being a guinea pig again.

You would think the NOs would change.

I have prepped Japan’s go and am waiting on my friend doing Russia’s go.
I have decided not to be too aggressive with Japan. Will assault Solomons’ fleet and prepare for next turn. Are only 2 Japanese Transports and neither can reach Celebes and I want to cut the Allies’ income down a notch and get my first NO(need Celebes).

They should call this Allies crush Axis…. one look at the eastern front under this set up and I can see Germany is going to get crushed.
