We used transports from classic, and introduced them as TRAINS.

They cost 6,  moved 3, and could carry 3 inf, OR 1 art.  They couldn’t be used to blitz, BUT they could be used to attack an enemy territory.

There was one catch… they didn’t take a hit, and they could be captured… and they also couldn’t retreat from battle.

They could be strategically bombed and destroyed aswell.

It made for a great additional unit, especially if you’re into infrastructure/transport kind of stuff.

At the very least, use battlemap and upload a map file to show us the exact board state.  The AC’s look freaking HUGE on that board, they are big enough to act as a causeway between EUS and WEu.  I have better than 20/20 eyesight, was just tested last year.  That picture is fuzzy as heck, really hard to make out exactly what land units are where.

It looks like Japan has 8 Infantry sitting on the islands.  Considering most of the Jap fleet is sitting around looking pretty in Hawaii/Midway area it shows a lack of efficient utilization of assets.

With such a poor picture and lack of effort in setting up the game state I’m surprised anybody bothered to reply at all.  Those who did reply  have more patience and are better peeps than I.

@Varn:

Based on your description, I have analyzed your situation carefully. I have identified your three options. You may be able to search this forum for articles that inform you which of these three is best for you given the exact situation:

1.) German prison/labor camp.
2.) Japanese prison/labor camp.
3.) Apologize heavily to the Germans. Agree to do more chores around the house. They may agree to let the Russians join the Axis, but only this once and only as a house rule.

Don’t take option number 1, I heard they got quite a bad rep around the historical period we’re talking about.

I agree that it helps the Allies.

And there could be a malicious surrender: UKE surrenders, giving the African territories to Germany, and before Italy can react US starts blitzing through the south, ADDING ABOUT 15 IPC’S TO THEIR VALUE. Same could be done with France.

It really helps the Allies and screws the game balance.

Yeah, tech is my favorite House Rule for 1942.
