G40 Naval Task Force Commander

@The-Captain

Very cool and intimidating!

What I wouldn’t give to had that army…

This rule is part of the Axis & Allies Global 1940 2E, House Rules Expansion.

The Escort unit is a sea unit, that has multiple tasks. The primary task is to protect Transports as part of a Convoy.

I agree this should be addressed. On the custom map we use all islands are worth at least 1 IPC, which helps somewhat, but like you said, it’s only financial.

I like the supply concept you have. Instead of tampering with all the unit stats, perhaps you could say that no surface attacks can be launched unless a friendly land zone is located in an adjacent sea zone. (double that distance with a naval base)

@BadassMooseSWE:

Hey man,

Did you sack the UK Pacific Nation rule or is this Delta just a light version?

Didn’t sack it, just ironing out some final details… the 4th and last video in my house rules series will cover everything about UK Pacific nation.

Ok nice!

What about the American War Production and Political Exile house rules?

1914 is fun but unbalanced. Global is way better.

@Gargantua:

These are seriously cool.

But I like what Most Holy uses.  It’s cool having chess pieces on the board. ;)

I do like that idea, now that you mention it. I had previously used the Task force markers from revised, and I was looking for an easier to spot, better alternative to use. My idea fell through (A&A pieces are too cool to be contained by plastic hobby glue), but I think the chess-piece one sounds cool. Queen to Moscow… checkmate?  :P

I like it. Simple and effective.

I used the tanker rule to do so.
If you have a tanker. (Cost 4 IPC) Your naval fleet can make a 3 sea zone movement.
The tanker has no attack capability but defend on a 1 against warship.
No defence against sub!!!.
The limit is 3 tanker per player.
For sub lovers,  it’s a must….
