Xmas & Allies - an Axis & Allies Variant

Using the 1942 Second Edition map I made a smaller version of Axis and Allies Pacific. All German territories were made neutral. Similarly, most British, Soviet, and American territories in Europe were made neutral (with exceptions). No income may be collected from any of these territories and they may not be crossed in any way.

Britain and America’s capitals on the Europe side of the board were left open and controlled by their respective powers. This means that even if Western United States and/or India were captured, the US and/or the UK still collect income and may still build units. The US and UK still collect income from these “European” territories.

The Soviet Union still has a turn and is at war with Japan. However, they may not collect income or build units (treat them as if their capital has fallen). The Soviet Far Eastern units may behave as normal. It is recommended that the Soviet player control another Allied power.

To win, the Allies first need to capture Tokyo. If, by the end of the next Japanese turn, the Allies still control Tokyo, they win. Japan needs to capture 5 victory cities (they start with 3) and hold it until the next American turn to win the game.

All other rules from 1942 Second Edition stay the same.

Let me know if you would like to play this version with me.

Using the 1941 map from TripleA I simply turned all territories on the Pacific side into neutrals (impassable), and changed all the IPC incomes to remain the same.

The Allies win by capturing Berlin. Germany wins by capturing two Allied capitals. All other rules stay the same. Let me know if you would like to play this with me.

hoffman, see my thread in the player help section.

@ossel:

@1Bean432:

Are we talking full-fledged rule changes or are we just changing the map around?

This particular thread is devoted to SIMPLE map changes (moving a border here or there) in order to make the OOB map more accurate to the actual borders at the time. No rules changes.

Alrighty.

The size of Tunsia, Morroco, Gold coast, and Togoland should be increased.

Angola should connect to Kamerun. I know its historically accurate the way it is now, but it just feels so strange to have two territorys so close to each other, but have to spend an entire turn in Belgian Congo.

Munich border with Switzerland should be a bit more obvious.

Another SZ that splits up SZ 17. This new SZ is connected to Sicily, Naples, Rome, Tuscany, Piedmont, Sardinia, SZ 16, and the other SZ 17. This new SZ houses all of the Italian navy.

@georgemak1:

A question for the HBG crew. Any idea when the next German set is due?

November

YES!!! Thank you!!!

No problem

Your reading to far into it. Just US,BRITIAN,and Russia against a well fortified GERMANY.Bridges must be taken to speed advance before Germany can blow them. Allies must hold supply lines,Germany can sabatoge and counter attack. Simple and fun.

@Imperious:

Is this the same map as global 39? or close?

No. This map is based on the old AAE and AAP. At the time I wanted a way to play both maps seemelessly. AAG40 acomplished the goal of this project, albeit in a slightly different way. Therefore, this map has been mostly forgotten since then.
