@Curtmungus Are you LTBQ$#$&^#&$%^&(*)()(++^^$$@MGFHFGTIDICYGTCKFVGFLFGlyg784734603486 Friendly??

Whats wrong with you people? We should have armies of AA players clamoring to make the next game the best ever!
DO YOUR DUTY!

@aequitas-et-veritas what is Curtfungus? Do women get this?

@SuperbattleshipYamato All that is correct, Formosa isn’t on the P40 map, and that’s the whole issue. The far less important island was , so as not to offend the Chinese.

@SuperbattleshipYamato I am saying something different : Hainan and totally avoiding Formosa which is a larger Island and is of greater significance is NOTHING more than AVOIDING and harming Chinese sentiments ( meaning not selling more copies of the games in China). They deliberately circumvented that whole thing by not having Formosa represented ( and therefore any politics) and representing this Hainan instead. Just my Opinion. I suggest the whole thing just be called Formosa ( and Manchuria being referred to as Manchukuo). Just leave everything in regard to what things are called and who owns what, go the Historical way. Thats all im saying

@FranceNeedsMorePower I was sent an enlarged map file if interested

enjoy.

@KraytKing However Oil stocks are a must for any ww2 game. Their must be a cost for attacks ( each attack costs 1/2 IPC) plus certain areas of the map produce oil X each turn, that’s easily modeled

@KraytKing Modeling weather should only follow that certain areas of the map are effected. Rasputita and snow in Russia and possible Typhoons in south east Asia are really the only candidates in an Operational or Strategic setting. So movement modifiers in Western Russia for all land units at 1 and limited air movement seem the only things along with perhaps a -1 combat modifier for tanks? But the only benefit are the Allies. You have to stack up this hindrance to if it improves the game, which its not adding anything except more realism. Realism isn’t itself sometimes enough to make a game more fun, while player options are an improvement that wins everytime.

@AndrewAAGamer Well originally, the game setup gave quite a bit more Italian infantry in the 1st scenario. Latter Matt took off about 5-6 Italians and i think 1 artillery. If OP poster thinks their is a glitch, he can add them back only i don’t recall where they were …hmmmm

It should be Formosa along with Manchukuo both be original Japanese areas, Formosa was Japanese since 1895 and Manchukuo Independent since 1931. Formosa can never be “chinese”. You might as well make the area east of Turkey including parts of Russia, India all part of China because Gennghis khan once owned it.

Its just a freaking cover name for a number of other box of plastic junk that came in boxes with rules and map, etc. It means nothing and only applies to Milton Bradley games of this type.

I hated that place. Too many Vampires and Jollibees. Per capita they make more Vampire movies than anyone and Jollibees is disgusting because everything is greasy and has too much sugar in it especially the spaghetti and franks. Spain should have never went there and screwed it up in the 1800’s. Also, no traffic control and they put 50 people or 5 tons of crap on one motorcycle. Who does this???

@dazedwit Azores is part of Portugal, USA took over the island around 1942, rather seized it. I know strange. But they had no army so it was easy, Like Greenland

@Krieghund well there you go…

@Imperious-Leader The answer is simple. If you invade a true neutral, it and everyone else is now at war with you. it could be axis or allies. the side that now has more support merely has to get their land units in the nation and claim these soldiers as their own. What else?

G1: invade Yugoslavia and ping pong to Romania and leave Yugo for Italy.

Does this attack change the political situation in Yugoslavia from Friendly Allied Neutral to Allied At War Neutral?

Does this change in political situation allow for the fighter on Malta to land in Yugo turn one?

I feel like I read about this situation or saw it in a video but I can’t find this situation addressed in the rule book.

Thank you

What prompted this? i don’t recall posting in this section for a LONG TIME. Whats it in referenced from?

@Pellulo thanks Pellulo, which incidentally is how you used to end every post of thousands of posts

@The-Janus In 1940 France is a road apple, while Germany Destroys the British Navy on G1, Perhaps it might prove better for Germany to commit all her might against Poland and France and have to tangle with UK fleet for the rest of the war and actually invest in a proper navy rather than this thing where UK navy gone and France, Norway, Poland are nothing but Boogers so they dont need to be represented?? 1940 was never the start of the war. If anything start in 1939 or June 1941 or Dec 1941. All these games follow the same mantra: wipe out UK Navy, then hold off UK while fighting USSR. Is nothing more possible?

new map cartography, oil centers, real neutral armies/navies ( not just infantry,) D12, NO National Objectives, Real Tech Chart, start 1939, not 1940, USSR then All axis and rest of allies move sequence, remove NCM, add Rail Movement, Atomic Weapons, etc
