Global 1943 Expansion, Revised

@the-captain yea actually you can already do it with edit. Make a saved game after you get it setup. But that’s next on the list. To make it easier with a Map Option click and go

Probably a week on the test game a day to fix/enhance. I have to reread 43, but there are no rules changes just setup and timeline correct ?

@the-captain cool yea have to Player Enforce Victory conditions for now. I guess I could throw a notification in at end of round but I hate to spam anymore than necessary .

Also I don’t think triplea can check for economic victory. hmm… well plenty to do before that : )

@the-captain well maybe I’ll throw a notification in at end rd for France after x amount of rds. Maybe start at 6 or 8 ? whenever Victory is most likely to first happen. Can use the comment log to document it if needed

The PU totals are totaled for each side as well as each player so it’s easy to check

Although I still need to fix DNG being hardwired at 2

Historically you have many mistakes in 1943 setup… Burma, Java, East Indies were under Japanese control.

@angel

I didn’t notice that until now! Thank you!

So I read through this again and have been thinking on it. It uses same rules as 1940 mod, so I’m not gonna do any more fixes until this is done.

Unfortunately, unless I make a separate game, instead of a map option, it’s gonna take a while. Separate game, while initially faster, requires twice the upkeep and in the long run, not as efficient.

Were gonna go map option, which was always the plan, just forgot I couldn’t export the xml into a map option lol.

Anyway, I’m in game mode right now. At least for tonight. We need a trigger for each territory setup/ownership change. Also for the time change.

So a fair amount of work, but if I become obsessive after I start, which is almost a given, it should come along sooner than later.

Yea, right, lol

Anyway just an update. It’s next up to the plate :)

@the-captain Hi Captain,
No, I haven’t yet, but I will love to do it. I am still learning the rules. Because of work, I didn’t have a lot of time to finish my Section 2 game. But now I have a holiday, so I made a lot of progress, it’s now Late 1945. When it’s finished, I will post an After Action Report, and then I will start my first Section 3 game. After that my first Section 4 game. And after that, I will begin with the 1943 setup.

Germany and Russia setups done. Politics also. On to Japan lol

@barnee Wowy, this is the first time I see the 1943 setup set up! I didn’t know Russia had so many units! This looks very interesting to me, and I would love to play it, but first I need to learn all the rules.

@victoryfirst heh heh yea the Fuhrer won’t like it, but I think a tactical retreat is in order. Let Manstein sucker em in for a counterattack lol

@barnee said in Global 1943 House Rules Expansion:

HEY ! I’m busy at the moment.

@victoryfirst during the blitzkreig, ussr mobilize all units to capital, also moved all factories to urals, so the tractor factories bacame tank and plane factories. During the winter when Germans were stopped soviets made alot of t-34 and ilusin tac bombers. Then operation bagration started and this huge force shown up in kursk.

@The-Captain couple small typos on the Japan setup chart. Hopeh should be Hopei and Anhwei should be Anhwe.

On to the USA :grinning:
