Right arm

I will go ahead and add them with the above parameters. The number and date of entry are easily changed.

I will wait for the final test results before putting them in the update.

The scale of which A&A G40 is designed to represent must be taken into account.

We assume that the original A&A Classic rules concerning AAA are more or less represented in the A&A G40 version.

We have devolped an Expansion rule for AAA: Flak Tower (see pdf file below).

5. G40 Flak Tower.pdf

You can find more inspiration in the G40 Expansion rulebook: Axis & Allies Global 1940 House Rules Expansion.

The Operation Felix-Steiner Expansion rule has been revised.

Due to the Revised SetUp for Strict Neutrals, the Felix-Steiner Operation has been revised accordingly.

At this point, the Felix-Steiner Expansion rule is not part of the Tournament rules.

LMFAO…

"Celebes 1 Infantry, 1 Artillery, 1 Naval Base
Java 1 Infantry, 1 Mechanized Infantry
Sumatra 2 Infantry, 1 Fighter
Dutch East Indies. 1 Infantry, 1 Tank, 1 Minor Industrial Complex
Suriname 1 Infantry

Sea Zone 42 1 Cruiser, 1 Battleship
Sea Zone 44 1 Transport"

So totally imbalance the game and just add all that crap giving the Allies an easy win??? The General made a different version that has the Dutch. You on the other hand willy dilly just add like 110 IPC to allies and expect no problems??? HUh?

@crockett36

Awesome Game Report.

It was fun to watch the game all the way.

Great game guys!

Merry Christmas :-)

Rules Clarification: Concerning Military Victory:

If a Major Capital (Berlin, Moscow, Tokoy, Washington or London) is captured by the enemy - and this Capital is NOT liberated on or before the original owners next turn - then the War is over and a Military Victory has been achieved.

Remember:
Your own and all of your allied Major Capitals must be controlled by friendly forces in order to achieve a Military Victory.

The Winning Conditions are described in the G40 HRE rulebook at pg. 11.

Note:
Concerning Military Victory: One Round of PLay is completed when all Nations have each completed their turn - after a Major Capital has been captured by the enemy.

Example:
In Early 1945 Soviet forces capture Berlin (Germany).
If German forces do not liberate Berlin on the German players next turn (Late 1945) - or if any other Axis forces do not liberate Berlin before the German players next turn - then the Allies have achieved a Military Victory.

I just assumed railway movement was considered in the movement. Those are pretty large distances to cover and it was still the era of steam, not bullet trains.

German armor, especially heavies mostly moved by rail since long road marches were hard on equipment.

It is a good point regarding different scales of rail though. Perhaps a movement penalty where armor can only move 1 on foreign soil (excluding Africa). That reflects rail movement.

Personally, I think blitzing is too powerful anyway. Maybe for mech inf as a fast moving scout, but not armor later in the war.

Yes, Blitzkrieg in France, but that was lightly armored fast moving tanks that wouldn’t survive once T-34s were on the battlefields. Bad roads, long distances and formidable opponents cut that out. US was bogged down in Normandy fight through hedgerows and ran into problems after since French rail was decimated in bombing.

for AA50 i have developed this. My feeling is the map has alot more territories, and it would take longer to play because of this. To facilitate a quicker result this was playtested and works.

Strategic Movement:

Each player’s capital territory has a value equal to half its IPC value, which can facilitate additional movement of a players land forces. Every time the Home territory is bombed by SBR the total movement of Strategic Movement is reduced one point for every 2 points of damage to the home factory.
    For example: Germany has 5 SR points because it has a 10 IPC home territory. If it was bombed for 5 points of factory damage, you could now only move 2 land units by strategic redeployment.

Procedure: after placement move one land unit a total of 2 additional spaces for each SR point. Units moved can be newly created units or units involved in combat or any unit whether it moved already or attacked. Units can even move across one sea zone to another controlled territory as long as you control the sea zone with one warship.

Repair of damaged factory also changes this value depending on current damage or investment for repair.
