Gamerman01

vs

Zhukov44 (or alternate Wheatbeer)

Alexgreat

here are some ideas to help improve the game. they are just ideas, let me know if you have any ideas to help the game.

1. objectives that entice you to do things you would not normally strive for are good objectives.
the old uk objective of having to clear out subs from the atlantic was a great idea.
adding a similar objective to germany that if they have 3 subs in the atlantic they receive a bonus.

although there is lots of action in the pacific, there are many islands that do not get used and lots of room for improvement.
possibly adding solomon islands as an objective for both japan and u.s.a. would be fun and add the importance of gaudalcanal.

i think it would be a good idea for both japan and usa to have a multiple island objective that has one island overlap. so japan, or u.s.a. or neither could have their objective. but not both japan and u.sa. could obtain their objective at the same time.

so remove the ridiculous.
• 5 IPCs if Axis powers control all of the following territories: Guam, Midway, Wake Island, Gilbert Islands, and Solomon Islands.

and add
japan has to control carolines, marshal, and wake.
u.s.a. has to control Hawaii, midway, and wake.

u.s.a. having an objective for landing in Europe would be good. possibly a bonus for sicily.

2. to reduce the penalty of attacking neutrals they could be divided in to groups, or as i like to call them neutral blocks. if you attack a neutral territory all other territories within that block become pro the other side.
the blocks would be

south American block
venezuela
Columbia
Ecuador
peru
Bolivia
Paraguay
Uruguay
argentina
chile

African block
rio de oro
potuguese guinea
sierra leone
Liberia
angola
Mozambique

Mongolian block
olgiy
dzavhan
tsagaan olom
central Mongolia
ulaanbaatar
buyant-uhaa

European block
Portugal
spain
Switzerland
Sweden
turkey

middle-eastern block
turkey
Saudi Arabia
afghanistan

3. the price of cruisers is way too high. they are less flexible and have lower hit points but are more expensive than fighters. priced at 10ipc, cruisers would be purchased but not disproportionately more than destroyers and subs.

battleships should cost 17ipc.

i would also tweak carriers to defend at 1or 0. it would help alleviate some of the defensive nature of fleets.

4. aaguns are broken, a tweak to cost will not fix the problem. i am not sure what to do with the unit. but i hate the idea that you build more of something and they do nothing. 1fighter attacking 1aagun has the same chances of getting shotdown as 1fighter attacking 113,187,145aaguns.
i have not played this out but maybe the following changes would work
hit on a roll of 2 or 1.
they roll 1 dice for every aagun no matter how many planes.
they can be used in attacks aswell as defence.
they are chosen last casualties similar to transports.
cost 3ipc

5. bring back anniversary style tech tokens.

6. i am not sure if a victory city or production amount would be better.
allies hold 14 victory cities for a round
or
allies produce at least 110ipc more than the axis for a complete round

7.  free china. let them move like any other power. it is time to bring down the acme wall.

8. stop being so cheap and use thicker stock

9. stop being so cheap and check the maps line up before printing

10. stop being so cheap and use plastic sculpts.

1. national objectives. they are a great idea and add variety and push action in otherwise boring areas of the map. however, there are several objectives that are incidental and not adding anything to the game.
• 5 IPCs per territory if Germany controls Novgorod (Leningrad), Volgograd (Stalingrad), and/or Russia (Moscow).
• 10 IPCs (one time only) the first time the Soviet Union controls Germany (Berlin).
• 5 IPCs per territory if Axis powers control India (Calcutta), New South Wales (Sydney), Hawaiian Islands
(Honolulu) and/or Western United States (San Francisco).
• 10 IPCs if the United States controls all of the following territories: Eastern United States, Central United States, and Western United States.

• 5 IPCs if the United States controls all of the following territories: Mexico, South Eastern Mexico, Central America, and West Indies.

the following is too difficult to achieve and offers too little reward
• 5 IPCs if Axis powers control all of the following territories: Guam, Midway, Wake Island, Gilbert Islands, and
Solomon Islands.

2. neutrals – the penalty for attacking neutrals is too harsh. it also feels weird that attacking uruguay brings every nation and their standing army to join forces to oppose the uruguay aggressors. attacking a neutral should not happen all the time, but should happen in some games.

3. pricing of some units – cruisers and battleships costs are too high compared to the alternatives. they are never purchased.

4. aaguns – they are rarely purchased. they are not just overpriced, they are fundamentally flawed. they are only used in defence and only against air units and only at a ratio of  1 to 3 with no benefit of having more. so a player never needs to buy aaguns until they are about to be attacked and only then you just need a third of the potential attackers airforce.

5. technology – is a very fun aspect that can add spice. but the cost is too high for the benefits that have been decreased from previous versions.

6. allied victory conditions- they are too tedious to achieve. if the allies have achieved their victory conditions the allies had an insurmountable lead for far too long.

7. china stuck in china. this is a boring rule and restricts the fun for china. it is even worse when china has all of china and can not use all their forces elsewhere and essentially their game is over before actual game is over.

8. the thin card stock for roundel markers

9. map boards not lining up perfectly

10. cardboard chits for facilities.

thanks for posting mallery, it was hilarious.

@Boldfresh:

are we going to get new sticky threads for 2014 find league opponents and post results?� can anyone do it?

we definitely need new stickies. these threads are already unruly and extremely difficult to find information.

i hope djensen can help out with this.

@allweneedislove:

4. better pricing of units. reducing the cost of naval and air units has led to a greater variety of units being purchased.

@ghr2:

I still believe that some naval units still need to be cheaper in order to be cost effective(rarely a good reason to buy bbs/cruisers).

i agree that both need to be fixed, i am going to create a thread similar to this one with all the things i think could be improved upon. but in general the pricing of the units is pretty good.

@allweneedislove:

8. facilities add a lot of strategy. the cost to benefit is great. having facilities helps drive action to otherwise less valuable territories.

@ghr2:

Some people still don’t like the movement bonuses.

why do they not like the facilities?
i think it adds plenty of additional strategy.

@allweneedislove:

9. national objectives add mini in game objectives that add strategy and can encourage play to areas of the map that otherwise would be ignored.

@ghr2:

I see only 2(maybe 3) areas that would of been ignored if it was not for objectives.

there are many NO’s that are poor and i will post on another thread what i think can be improved. but in general the NO’s are fun.
all of the below objectives effect how me and my opponents play.

� 5 IPCs if an Axis power controls Caucasus. Theme: Control of vital Soviet oil production.
� 5 IPCs if at least 1 German land unit is in Axis-controlled Egypt. Theme: Gateway to the Middle East oilfields (high
propaganda value).
� 5 IPCs if Germany controls both Denmark and Norway while Sweden is neither pro-Allies nor Allies-controlled.
Theme: Access to iron ore and other strategic resources.
� 2 IPCs per territory if Germany controls Iraq, Persia, and/or Northwest Persia. Theme: Access to strategic oil
reserves.
� 5 IPCs if the convoy in sea zone 125 is free of Axis warships, Archangel is controlled by the Soviet Union, and
there are no units belonging to other Allied powers present in any territories originally controlled by the Soviet
Union. Theme: National prestige and access to Allied Lend-Lease material.
� 3 IPCs for each original German, Italian, or pro-Axis neutral territory that the Soviet Union controls. Theme:
Propaganda value and spread of communism.
� 5 IPCs if Axis powers control all of the following territories: Sumatra, Java, Borneo, and Celebes. Theme: Strategic resource centers.
� 5 IPCs if the United States controls Philippines. Theme: Center of American influence in Asia.
� 6 IPCs if the Burma Road is totally open. Allied powers must control India, Burma, Yunnan, and Szechwan for
this to occur. China is also permitted to purchase artillery (represented by U.S. pieces) if the Burma Road is open.
Theme: Chinese military supply line corridor.
� 5 IPCs if the United Kingdom controls all of its original territories in its European economy (see page 34). Theme:
Maintenance of the empire considered vital national objective.
� 5 IPCs if the United Kingdom controls both Kwangtung and Malaya. Theme: Maintenance of the empire considered
vital national objective.
� 5 IPCs if there are no Allied surface warships in the Mediterranean sea (sea zones 92 through 99). Theme:
Propaganda and strategic advantage.
� 5 IPCs if Axis powers control at least 3 of the following territories: Gibraltar, Southern France, Greece, and Egypt.
Theme: Stated national objectives�Greater Roman Empire.
39
� 5 IPCs if Axis powers control all of the following territories: Morocco, Algeria, Tunisia, Libya, Tobruk, and
Alexandria. Theme: Stated North African military objectives.
� 2 IPCs per territory if Italy controls Iraq, Persia, and/or Northwest Persia. Theme: Access to strategic oil reserves.
� 5 IPCs if an Allied power controls Malaya and ANZAC controls all of its original territories. Theme: Malaya
considered strategic cornerstone to Far East British Empire.
� 5 IPCs if the Allies (not including the Dutch) control Dutch New Guinea, New Guinea, New Britain, and the
Solomon Islands. Theme: Strategic outer defense perimeter.

chocolatepancake, emptysuite, toblerone77, and cwomarc thanks for the great reasons that i missed.

i have edited my original post to include the ones i missed.

@MrRoboto:

Since I’ve not seen anyone so far who’s in favor of the 6VC rule in the Pacific, wouldn’t it be wise to change that rule for our 2014 league?

Victory conditions:

Axis Victory: 8 European Victory Cities OR 3 out of (Sydney, Calcutta, Honolulu, San Fransisco). Maintain control of one of their own capitals.
Allied Victory: Berlin and Rome and Japan are under allied control and allies maintain control of one of their own capitals.

It’s not such a big change and keeps it simple, but has great effects. USA will not be forced to spend very early, very much IPC to prevent a fast Japanese Victory. It opens up the option of spending Atlantic first to pressure Germany.

most people do not say when they are in favour of the status quo.

i have not seen anyone in favour of keeping germany as a playable power. this does not mean that everyone thinks the game would be better without playing germany.

coincidentally, i just started a topic about why global 1940 is so great. and i believe the most important change was the victory conditions.

@ghr2:

What about turn order?

i don’t know how the turn order made the game better. you should explain and add it to the list.
