You should make one, I don’t have a 1940 copy but have friends who do and would love to have one. Still I always like to put in a Bismark no matter what time period, just to stress Britian because they have vast, if thin superiority in the Atlantic ocan.
AARHE: Phase 2: Neutrals
-
Mongolia should be also one infantry. perhaps two
-
Mongolia only needs 1 (25,000 Standing men), and Imp, I like your Terrain Ideas….
-
Looking through Google, it appears that Rommel did fight in the Sahara during WW2. It appears combat could and did take place in the desert.
-
Yes but it was limited due to lack of support in the desert. the number of units that can cross this territory should be limited to say 3 units per turn. any more than that and it would overburden the supply train and men would die. Each infantry = a corps to an army. a Corps is 3-5 divisions and an army is 3-5 corps or some 40,000-120,000 men
-
so 3 units…doesn’t matter if its land or air units?
@Guerrilla:
and Imp, I like your Terrain Ideas….
and don’t forget Gen AlexanderPatch too :-)
-
And Gen Patch :-D
Or lets just force the player to pay 1 IPC per unit that enters the desert… Or maybe for every 2…

Hey guys, I researched this Mongolia issue and this is my conclusion.
During World War II, because of a growing Japanese threat over the Mongolian-Manchurian border, the Soviet Union reversed the course of Mongolian socialism in favor of a new policy of economic gradualism and buildup of the national defense. The Soviet-Mongolian army defeated Japanese forces that had invaded eastern Mongolia in the summer of 1939, and a truce was signed setting up a commission to define the Mongolian-Manchurian border in the autumn of that year.
-
Yes right and thats why Japan wanted nothing to do with attacking the Soviets. They were afraid
-
So, out of this, I think that maybe 2 infantry at least, one could possibly even be Russian, also Russia probably should not be able to invade Mongolia because they were in fact allies at the time. Is this too in-depth?
-
sounds good. 2 inf plus ability for Soviets to reinforce. If Japan invades Mongolia is automatically a soviet satalite possibly allowing some forces to join before the battle
-
Hence the non-aggression treaty against soviet Satellites… Read my posts above…

-
So this solves it… Thanks to rawdwawg.
But what about others like the Saharan desert?
And the Himalayas? Also the other neutrals?
Yes I like the idea of having to pay for entering Sahara (it simulates paying for desert gear, tank tracks, etc.)
-
But what about others like the Saharan desert?
And the Himalayas? Also the other neutrals?
Basically the same thing except Himalayas should stay impassible to land units… possibly only chinese getting thru
the Desert is covered under NA’s for Italy and UK.
-
Well if the mountains are impassable by land, then yes they technically are “neutral”… Sahara is not…

@Imperious:

ok back to 2 INF for Mongolia
as for Mngolia joining Soviet on Japanese invasion…yes this is part of the standard neutrals rule…if one team invades Mongolia it joines the other team
but as for reinforcing we have to look in that, don’t want it to get complicated
for starters we could extend the defensive air support rule for you to reinforce neutrals with your air units when they are attacked by the other team
air units are fast so thats certainly realistic -
ok done add that to the list.

Desert terrain (Sahara, Saudi Arabia)
*All land units must stop on entering a desert terrain. Pay 1 IPC in Collect Income phase for every unit occupying a desert terrain. (Italian NA can reduce this.)Snowy terrain (Greenland, Alaska, Soviet Far East)
*All land units fighting in a snowy terrain fight with -1 modifier, but not reducing below 1.Mountainous terrain (Southern Europe, Turkey, Mongolia, Persia, Afghanistan)
*ARM units may not enter mountainous terrain (is this too drastic?)Some terrain maps

Mountainous terrain (Southern Europe, Turkey, Mongolia, Persia, Afghanistan)
*ARM units may not enter mountainous terrain (is this too drastic?)Yes totally! It should be exactly like snow same move restriction, same combat restriction. easy to remember
-
so more like…
All land units must stop on entering the following terrains.
Desert terrain (Sahara, Saudi Arabia)
*Pay 1 IPC in Collect Income phase for every unit occupying a desert terrain. (Italian NA can reduce this.)Snowy terrain (Greenland, Alaska, Soviet Far East)
Mountainous terrain (Southern Europe, Turkey, Mongolia, Persia, Afghanistan)
*All land units fighting in a snowy terrain fight with -1 modifier, but not reducing below 1. -
yes add that to the draft. good.
