@SuperbattleshipYamato I have played a few games and though the Axis can initially worry the Allies , (I thought I would lose ), I have always been able to keep the income gap and , as the game progresses, it opens up much more .
I don’t believe , The Allies don’t need help in this game, if the players are equal ability.
Global 1943 Expansion, Revised
-
Interesting!
-
The rulebook has seen a few updates 4th April 2022.
The Winning Conditions will be clarified, but remain the same.
-
@the-captain Is there a list of the changes somewhere ? I can’t find anything. Is 1.1 latest rules version then ?
-
There is no list… changes are mostly cosmetic.
I’ll let you know when I make clarifications:+1:
-
For use with Global 1943 & Global 1940:
The Soviet Partisan unit plays an important role in disrupting Axis Strategic Rail Movement as well as forcing Axis units to conduct Rear Area Combat Missions.
Important:
When Axis forces are attacking Soviet Partisan unit(s), only Land Based Combat Units can be used.This means that Air units and Rockets cannot be used against Partisan units.
This will also be part of the updated Rules Clarification.

@the-captain said in Global 1943 House Rules Expansion:
only Land Based Combat Units can be used.
The infantry’s job just got harder lol. They always get the short end of the stick. Buddy told his brother you gotta love push ups if you’re in the infantry. He joined the air force lol
-
The Global 1943 House Rules Expansion is based on the Rulebook from Axis & Allies Global 1940 House Rules Expansion.
Therefore players should also refer to the thread: EXPLAINED - Axis & Allies Global 1940 House Rules Expansion, since all Units & Rules are described in detail.
This gives all players a better insight in How & Why units and rules are formed and used.

EXPLAINED - Axis & Allies Global 1940 House Rules Expansion
Hmm … I don’t remember seeing this thread before. Is this the regular 1940 expansion one or is there a specific “Explained” one ?
-
Hi barnee - it’s a new thread that explaines the background to the Axis & Allies Globalk 1940 House Rules Expansion.
We have already attached some EXPLAINED files in pdf format.
-
@the-captain right on can you give a link
-
Hm… you’ll find it under the House Rules section - second from the top - Victoryfirst just posted a reply…

As part of the continuous developement of the Global 1943 scenario, we have Play Tested 32 games during the 2021-2022 Axis & Allies Global 1943 Gaming Season.
The results inspired our Play Testing Group to come up with a few changes in the setup.
These changes mostly concern the Eastern Front and some parts of the Pacific.
-
The Global 1943 Set Up has been revised.
During the Axis & Allies Global 1943 2021-2022 Gaming Season, this Set Up has been play tested during 32 games.
The attached pictures (see page 1 in this thread) show the Revised Set Up.
The Revised RULEBOOK 1.2 will replace the RULEBOOK 1.1 within a short time.
-
Great!
-
@the-captain Can you list the changes as well ? It’ll take me a while comparing pictures to the map and I’m not confident i wouldn’t miss something.
-
The Set Up Charts for all Nations are being revised - hopefully the Play Testing Group have them ready by next week.
We also discovered a flaw in the Original 1943 Set Up - Western Germany did not have an Air Base and Naval Base… This has also been corrected now.
Celebes is now mentioned with a 4 IPC Value Marker as well.
-
@the-captain cool I also missed the not having the bases because W Germany has em both in triplea : )
So Celebes is a 4 dollar IPC start level ? No extra points needed like PHI ?
Anyway, I’ll dial it in as soon as I can. Machine supposed to be here tommorow. Probably take a day or two to set it up and then we’ll get crackin : )
Kinda bummed my last test game fried. Only needed one more rd to finish off JPN lol
-
@barnee
Celebes still keeps its OOB original 3 IPC value. The increase to 4 IPC is only when Celebes changes hands.Example:
Philippines’ original IPC value is 2 IPC. The increase to 5 IPC is only when it changes hands.Note:
Concerning Convoy Disruption, only the original IPC value is targeted. -
The Axis & Allies Global 1943 Expansion Set Up has now been revised.
Some background history has been added as well during the Military Situation Report and the the Political Situation Report.
The Set Up now shows the Historical Peak of the Axis Expansion during World War II.
When the Global 1943 game begins - in Early 1943 - the Axis Powers are extremely close to winning an Economic Victory.
The Allies are gradually getting the upper hand in both the Pacific and the Atlantic - and on The Eastern Front, the exposed German Frontline units are in danger of being cut off - or annihilated - unless withdrawn or reinforced on a massive scale.
In Early 1943 victory depends on a brilliant strategy as well as tactical superiority on The Battlefield.
