I would love a scorched earth, destroy the minors optional rule. I love that Nightengale games has a few optional rules in the back of the book for War Room and just came out with two more. One of which is no foreign troops in Russia until they move up the stress wheel. Good precedent.
@SS-GEN Lend lease chart. That, if done right, could balance G40 and encourage German sub production by itself.
What is a stress wheel and lend lease chart?Are we talking about G40?
@ampdrive stress wheel is war room. I’m excited that we are getting official optional rules
@crockett36 and want official optional rules for aa
@crockett36 said in Global 40 Objective for Normandy:
The title is a little misleading because, I think, Barnee you are saying that in the current meta it is more beneficial for the US to NOT liberate Paris. Therefore I said 10 dollars for US once ie the Russia/Berlin bonus.
Yea I didn’t word it very well but that’s what i meant. I don’t think a one time payout of ten bucks is enough to give up the factory. Ten a turn is probably too much though. I think I’m gonna combine the two and give USA 5 bucks a turn when France is liberated and require a USA land unit to be present and starting rd 10 Germany gets 5 bucks a turn if it isn’t.
That should give the Allies a chance to have a beachhead and produce some dudes before Germany gets extra dough. I’ll add the auto minor factory destroy as well. Have to clean up some stuff on oztea’s 1939 and then I’ll do it.
You’re the guy that codes all that stuff? Can I say thank you enough?
Ya. Mostly. We talk back and forth on some stuff and my game and then he maybe try’s it in his play testing and or tweaks it to d6 and plays it if I’m correct. He has many idea tests himself.
well idk about all : ) Yea I just try and make people’s houserules playable with triplea so that others might be more inclined to try them. Usually people just talk about it and never really try them. That’s why I respect the General so much, he actually tries stuff instead of endless discussion.
Well, this is the place for me. Thanks again.
I hate to ask again but where do I find Taamvans house rules.
2)Option taamvan Changes the control of Novgorod, Volgograd, Russia Objective to 3 PUs for Germany. Control of Caucasus is also reduced to 3. Also adds a Fighter to Russia and a Armor to Urals.
I’m not sure but he may have updated it with a slight change. You’d have to ask him.
On triplea it’s “Global 40 House Rules” under “Experimental” in map downloads. Works with the “Canada Mod” too. Activated in “Map Options”.
superduper

I like where Taamvan added the Russian fig and tank. Its a good start.
@SS-GEN
yea, I’ve never actually tried it. I will one day though. I’ve seen several people that have and it seemed to get positive feedback. Only minor changes for a sizeable impact should make it attractive to oob players I would think.
If the Allies get income for Normandy, the Axis should get something for Malta or occupation of Crete? or extra for Romania ( ploesti oil fields)
yea not proposing dough for Normandy but France (the territory) for both USA and Germany so USA has incentive to liberate France even though they can’t then use the Normandy factory
@Imperious-Leader Jerry loving swine! Was that a popular insult in 1945 or what?
I have a simple computer so I loaded the small version and have no option for house rules redesign, but technically I can just edit the loss of ipc and add the tank and fighter at the beginning.
yea it’s not a bad edit. Let us know what u think of it after giving it a go. Just to clarify it’s “Global 40 House Rules” not “Global 40 Redesign HouseRules” in case there was any confusion.
