Alright, no retreat for the heavy tank but not the same cost for all players.

Germany 4-4-2-7
USSR 4-4-2-6
USA 4-4-2-8

We have introduced Oil rule la couple of years ago.
In our 1939 game rules, Axis players doesn’t have oil so they have to fight to get some because they’re going to face a penalty after the 7th round.

If you conquer a neutral oil territory you receive form the bank, twice of the value of the territory.
Ex: Saudi Arabia = 2 IPC so you’ll receive 4 IPC.
When you invade an ennemy oil territory, the player must give you twice of the value of the territory. Ex: Egypt = 2 so UK player must pay 4 IPC.

• I’m okay with this, but naval aircraft should still be able to land on islands and regular land.-

Ya but during the non combat move only!

• One thing comes to mind if you don’t allow these naval fighters to land on islands or land tt. What if a sub (or other unit) takes out your carrier. The planes die after battle? I don’t like that.-

That’s the reason why we have introduced planes retreat after one round of combat!

Good, I will contact you soon to make my order.

I agree flashman.

Heavy tank must be a tech.
6 IPC for USSR
7 IPC for Germany.
Maybe 8 for USA.

Personnaly, i’m not a big fan of artillery but i think this weapon must be represented.
I used a lot paratroopers and for me it’s a must.

Fortress!= Useless!!!
lucky dice it’s my better defence!!!
Anyway I used this USSR House rules = Russian infantry defend at 3 in Moscow, Stalingrad and Leningrad.

Well yes it’s realy interresting but i agree.
Too much units.

Well heavy artillery for me means katyusha rockets,nebelwefer and 155mm long tom.
heavy artillery attack and defend on 3. May choose is target in the first round fo combat.

Well it’s simple.
Army airforce = must land on territory (or island) only
Naval airforce = Must land on carrier only.
Just used two different pieces to identify the planes.
Example: hellcat = naval, P51 = airforce.

Can defend and attack together.
Fighter attack at 2 against ground units.
Attack on 3 against ships.
Always defend on 4.

Dive bomber must be a different unit.
Att: 4 in the first round and at 3 on the next turn.
Always defend on 2.

Torpedo bomber
Attacking ship only
At 3 in the first round. (may choose is target)
At 2 in the next round.
Def: 1

All planes movement = 4
In our houses rules, planes may retreat after the first round fo combat.

Well, 88’ what else? :wink:

Generals have been mentioned, but how about “Commander in Chief” figures in honour of the original A&A:

Eisenhower
Churchill
Stalin
Chiang?

Hitler
Mussolini
Tojo
Petain?

I support the idea of flashman!!!

Hum…

Dive bomber is stronger than a torpedo bomber.
I think there’s enough spaces on a game board for both units.

So your rules are saying that if Japan had conquered Burma, India, Australia and driven to Moscow… or any of the other ahistorical achievements that occur in this game, they still would never have been capable of producing a heavy tank formation.

LOL, well if you driven to moscow with Japan, Don’t need tank anymore!!!

• fighters, a lot of fighters…

It’s up to you but I prefer accurate game.
The day i wil had heavy tank tech to Japan and I will add A bomb tech to germany!

Oh, why not bacteriological weapon for Japan?
1 Balloon per turn. Attack at 3 or less over USA?

FMG

I also try to make an order but no answer of my call and my email!

In our house rules games, we play with the seasons.
1 season = 1 turn.
For example: No amphibious assault in western europe during winter.
The russian player can call a general winter but only 2 times during the games.

Totaly agree with you Turtle!!!

I agree for the first round select.

But 11, too expensive!!!
The torpedoes bomber was not good in defence so 3, too much.

On land matched with tank?
That’s the dive bomber job isn’t???

Yes. US had pershing heavy tank but to late to make a difference at the end of the war.

Of course, heavy Tank must be a tech. Germany and USSR only.

Italy and Japan didn’t have the industrial capacity, the technology and money to produce medium and heavy tank. In 1941, japanese didn’t have any tank division!
Only tankette.

Light tank cost = 4    2,2,2 but attack at 3 in the first round of combat. 
there’s a difference between a mechanized infantry. Light tank is stronger.
I think you can put both in the same game).
Let see…mech inf. cost 3 = 2,2,2 but may retreat after one round fo combat).

medium tank = 5 (USSR) 6 (USA,UK,Ger).
Heavy tank = (USSR 6) Ger 7.

Sweden =
4 inf.
1 art.
1 fig.
1 cruiser
1 destroyer

Yes norway must be represented.
If neutral…

1 inf.
1 art.
1 transport.
1 destroyer
That’s it.

Why not split in 3 differents categories

1. National advantage  (ex: USSR general winter, UK radar)

2. Special units    (ex: frogmen, panzergrenadier,kamikaze)

3. Weapons development (ex: USSR katyucha rocket, USA B29, UK Chuchill tank)

More info.
No real thing in poland but in Hungary!
There was some oil fields in the southern part of the country and around balaton Lake.
(The battle of balaton lake was the last battle of the Hungarian & German army against the red army).

Manchuria.

Yes japan discovered shale oil in the northern part of the territory but no real production before the end of the war.
I also forgot to mention Kuwait & United arab emirat.
