Also I should add, that Gamerman01 in this thread

http://www.axisandallies.org/forums/index.php?topic=31667.0

provides a list of currently unresolved issues when playing Global1940 with TripleA.

Many of them are already part of the game notes provided with the map.

It’s by far not a game breaker … but these are aspects to keep in mind.

redrum

Excellent! Thanks for all the resources! I’ll glance over them but let’s go ahead and get started. I definitely learn much better by making mistakes than reading the rule book :)

I have a feeling our first G40 game will be pretty lopsided but I hope to be competitive in the second one.

redrum

Also, I’d prefer to play whichever side goes second if you don’t mind (so I can play more reactionary early on). Unless you feel one side is easier for beginners than the other.

Panther

Allright, I will start with G1 soon, but not before tomorrow or probably Tuesday. My last competitive game of Global1940 was around Autumn 2012, so I have to deal with it a bit more…

As always, the Allies need a well coordinated play, but I have no doubt, that you will manage that perfectly.
And I have learnt from our games so far that playing against you is a huge challenge for me.

So I am curious about how this will work out …

I recommend to use the option “Also post after combat move” in TripleA more often, as on this map the need of orders (scramble, OOL etc.) occurs more frequent than on other maps.

Panther

Some additional hints before we start:

Carriers are two hit units such as Battleships in this game
Damaged Battleships and Carriers don’t autorepair after the combat phase. They are repaired during the next Purchase and Repair Phase, but they need to be in a SZ adjacent to a friendly Naval Base in order to be repaired.
Tacs can land on carriers. Air units can’t land on damaged carriers. Cargo Air units cannot start from damaged carriers.
Naval and Air Bases enhance ships/air units movement points by 1 when starting from there. They are subject to damage (by bombing).
Fighters and Tacs may scramble from Air Bases (see “Scramble” in the rulebook")
Major ICs produce up to 10 units, minor ICs up to 3 - both regardless of the territory value. Minors can be built on territories with a value of two or more, Majors of three or more. Major industrial complexes can be built only in originally controlled (not captured) territories. You can’t build ICs on islands.

redrum

Thanks for the hints. The repairing and bombing are definitely pretty different. I’m pretty good on scrambling and bases since the AI already handles these to some extent.

Think you’ll have your turn up today?

@redrum:

Think you’ll have your turn up today?

Yes, I’m optimistic to find some time this evening. :-)
