    @The-Captain

    Apologies if I asked this before.

    Do Tank Destroyers target SPA and SPA AA ?

    Thanks

    Edit
    Actually I guess they wouldn’t target the AA as they can’t attack. The SPA’s though ? And SS SPA AA" ?

    The Tank Destroyer unit can only target any of these enemy units:

    • Any type of Tank unit including Panzer General units
    • Mechanized Infantry unit
    • Tank Destroyer unit
    • Armoured Infantry and Panzergrenadier unit

    Allied Tank Destroyer units can also fire at these German Waffen-SS units:

    • Panzergrenadier
    • Panzer including Waffen-SS Panzer General unit
    • Tank Destroyer

    @The-Captain

    Regarding A-Bomb transportation. The fastest way the Yanks can get it to London, is Canada, Iceland, UK or Guiana, GIB, UK ?

    Is that right ?

    For Tokyo, Rail WUS, Aleutians be fastest route.

    Can’t hit Sea Zones ?

    Thanks

    Edit
    Earliest you can nuke Germany is Late 46 ? Early 46 for JPN ? I might be off a turn. Late 45 and Early 46 ?

    The first possible strike for the USA with an Atomic Bomb unit against the Axis are:

    • Late 1945 (Japan)
    • Early 1946 (Germany or Italy)
  • 23 22 20

    Are these rules the best attempt to add chrome and balance to G40?

    @The-Captain

    Hej
    I may have asked this before, but do you think the 262’s should be able to land on Carriers ?

    If so, why ? It seems overpowered to me and unrealistic.

    Thanks

    Ciao.
    This is by far the best house rule set to spice up Global40.
    It is very well balanced and allows bad dices, wrong decisions, mistakes etc. and keeps the game open and balanced.

    If you want to give it a try, let me know and I will setup a game and guide you through it.

    At the beginning it may appear complicated, but it will become second nature after very few turns.

    The German Jetfighter unit Me 262 operates under Fighter unit rules with a few exceptions.

    An Me 262 can land on Aircraft Carrier unit.

    Why:
    For game play reasons.

    Note:
    When the Me 262 can enter the game in Early 1944 the War is - in most games - entering its final stage.
    So, if Germany is able to produce Me 262 units and Aircraft Carrier units on a massive scale, the War is in favor of the Axis anyway.

    Our game experience shows that the Me 262 unit is mostly used for defensive use against Allied Air Superiority.

    We rarely see German Aircraft Carrier units in the later stages of the War.

    Rules Clarification:

    During Non-Combat Movement a land based unit (Infantry, Tank, Artillery etc.) can enter a Landing Craft unit which belongs to an allied Nation - and which is present in the same territory from the beginning of that turn.

    Example:
    An Italian Infantry unit in Greece enters a German Landing Craft unit during the Italian Non-Combat Movement phase in Early 1941.

    On the German players turn in Late 1941 during Combat Movement, a German Panzer unit enters the same German Landing Craft unit.
    The German Landing Craft unit attacks Caucasus - and the German Panzer unit is offloaded from the Landing Craft unit to participate in the attack.

    The Italian Infantry unit must stay onboard the Landing Craft unit.

    In this case the German attack is succesful - and Germany captures Caucasus.

    The Soviet player fails to re-capture Caucasus in Late 1941.

    During the Italian players turn in Late 1941, the Italian Infantry unit can choose to be offloaded in Caucasus from the German Landing Craft unit during the Italian Non-Combat Movement phase - or stay onboard for further transportation.

    Note:
    During this process the Italian Infantry units is considered as cargo for as long as the Infantry is onboard the Landing Craft unit.
    If the German Landing Craft unit is lost, the Italian Infantry unit onboard is also lost and removed from play.
