How about instead of taking to hits, we have them absorb one hit like the tanks in ww1.

I was wondering what you guys thought about going old-school in the victory conditions in 1940? Like in order for the Axis to win they would have to…

A. Conquer two capitols in Europe (not including France). OR

B. Conquer two capitols in the Pacific.

The Allies would win the same way they would win in Global. Thoughts?

Do you know how  Western USA turns from a territory of 10 ipcs to a territory of 50 ipcs in war in Pacific? What if that happened in global as well?

Okay you guys might think I’m crazy but I wonder how much would change if the US could get that extra IPCs from West. USA? In all of our games, the axis are gaining more income individually then the US. Maybe it would balance the game out. Thoughts?

Question: Can you build multiple complexes in any given territory?

Ok, sort of unrelated, but how do you customize maps?

Yeah but if you had a lot of infantry and artillery, you would not even get close to taking out your tanks.

Are you guys talking about the new rules or the OOB rules? That is actually important. If you are playing with the new ones, attack Russia with all of the central powers. Russia will collapse by turn four if the central powers have brains. Then The Central powers should all attack France. The Ottomans in Russia should follow Germany, Austria should go for Northern Italy and Southern France, and Germany should combine in one big force and attack France. Even with the OOB rules, you should crush Russia with the central powers (granted it will be take a long time but I think they can pull it off). The Western Front should distract France as much as possible but not go crazy.

You don’t need a tank for every infantry. You just need a lot of tanks if you are attacking. Just make sure you have a lot of inf and arts and planes and you should be fine.

I like how the game implemented Kamikazes however having a limit to them sucks.  I am the kinda guy who would like to buy them maybe at 5 ipc? Any thoughts?

Has anybody thought of using the actual convoy routes in the war for convoy disruption?  Any thoughts on this will be appreciated.

I think that every country should have a convoy threshold like the economic and political collapse rules. Also they should have a restricted sub warfare option that is not as effective but still an option.

Make a setup of 1939 for global please. :cry:

Thanks guys. Our main problem with Russia is what to buy. In past games in order to defend a territory, all you had to do was buy a ton of infantry and you were set. Now since they are more tanks and fighters, it has become harder to defend territories. Also the Axis use the 1-2punch which is when Germany takes a territory, Italy takes the other one, which makes straffing ourdated.

In most of our recent games, Germany builds all mech. infantry and tanks. Then on turn 3, He rolls into Russia. By turn 6 or 7, Germany has Moscow and all of his beloved resources, Help!

P.S. We always go south.

We always play with the aniversary rule for tech. We recently tried a new rule where you get to choose the tech like revised execept that the tech you choose have those tokens on the tech you what. For example, if you bought 4 dice for advanced artillary you can’t change those dice for heavy bombers. It was cool.

I am playing the Allies in a game with my dad. I always use the same strategy, I do operation Tourch in Europe Meanwhile in the pacific I build a navy and head on with the Japanese. Operation Tourch is a success while the pacific stategy always fails. Any thoughts? :|
