@onetthome:

My brother and I have played the game to death, are there any additional rules you can suggest?

Can I suggest you play OTHER players??  I think you may be in a rut if you are only playing the same opponent(s) over and over.  Online/PBEM is the way to go for the easiest way to play new players with different ‘perspectives’ on the game.

I agree, it’s amazing the different strategies from one experienced player to another. It’s like a totally different game when you play someone willing to take risks that your regular opponent won’t.

Ebay is the place.  Also, try buying boosters cases and you will be able to build multiple armies, one for you and one for your brother.  do a search ob axis and allies mini boosters and you may hit a gold mine.  Also, trying contacting the seller and see if he will sell you multiple case for a deat, IE 3 for $200, plus shipping.  This will give you nearly 225 units.  Good luck, Dan

So I’m playing A&A global for the 2nd time and I am noticing a lot of inconsistencies with the rules between both books and even what is written on the board’s mobilization chart. Is there an updated/ revised rulebook I can download?

Use the Europe Rulebook.  The only rules from the Pacific Rulebook that apply to the Global game are the rules on China and kamikazes.  I’m not aware of any problems with the mobilization charts on the boards.  What are you referring to?

@onetthome:

Also, how much does USA collect before it goes into wartime? Europe book says it makes 35 during war so does that mean it makes 5 IPCs and then gets +30? is it +30 for Europe and +40 for global?

In the Europe game, the US collects 35 IPCs when not at war.  In the Global game, the US collects 52 IPCs when not at war (see page 32 of the Europe Rulebook).  Note that the politics rules and National Objectives in the Global game are completely different from those in the Europe game (see pages 33-35 of the Europe Rulebook).

It’s for Global, but I don’t think there is a Europe-specific version yet.  You should be able to just ignore the stuff regarding the Pacific.  The 2 ANZAC infantry in Egypt become 1 UK infantry, and the USSR gets 9 extra income from the Soviet Far East.

They can be built on any territory that doesn’t already have one, and they do not require a factory in order to be built.

The union jacks are for india’s (uk pacific) income in the global game, because you need to keep the economies separate. There are two so you can have a spare
