sending so many Russians to the middle-east is what cost you I think

@Talleyrand19:

ugh, dude, ���� it, I hate to give up so soon, but I just can’t do anything with Japan so it’s only a matter of time for Germany to collapse…I’d be up for a rematch (same or switching sides)…let me know, and good game

Thanks, despite the bad Japanese dice I was extremely worried after I buggered up the neutral crush.  Forgot to protect Spain from the amphibious, and kept getting devastated in Turkey.  Sure, let’s do a re-match.  Let’s keep the bid at the same amount, and you can pick which side you would like to play.

Got to admit you’ve had some poor dice this game.

yup good game to you as well…and okay sounds good, shoot me a message whenever you’re ready

Hi Talleyrand
Thanks for a good game. The allies airforce has been the difference in this game. They have been able to make impact a lot of places both defense and offense.
I have a couple of non-league game going on at the moment that I would like to finish. But maybe we will meet up later this season
Best regards
MrCunego

yup, I will post, I will send you a message when the new game is up for scramble orders…

and yeah, I agree, the allies have a lot of weird NO’s that are tricky to stop so they make a lot of money for a long time

The combined arms rule (actually called “Commander In Chief”) was in the first edition of Classic but was removed from the second edition of Classic.  Apparently they thought back then that this rule was to easily taken advantage of by Allied players.

The way it worked was:
The US moves “X” units to United Kingdom.  The UK already has a number of units already there.  The US moves a number of transports that can carry all the current US and UK units on United Kingdom to the sea zone adjacent to the territory.
During the Collect Income phase of the US turn, the US and UK players agree to make the US Commander In Chief.  The US player takes a stack of 3 US control markers and places them in United Kingdom.
Then on the UK player’s turn, the UK player does not move any of the units intended for the combined force.  If the UK moves any of it’s units stationed on United Kingdom, they CAN NOT be included in the combined force.
Then on the US player’s next turn, the US player is now free to move any or all units stationed on United Kingdom as long as they DID NOT move during the UK player’s turn.
By the way, this includes UK aircraft if they didn’t move on the UK’s turn.

So, basically, any country’s units that are going to be included in the combined force but are not from the country of the Commander In Chief have to be in the launching territory before the Commanding player is chosen.  It might be a little more complex, but I think this rule could be applied to Global 1940.
For example:  Say England wants to attack a Japanese force in Burma from India.  They want to use a combined force of UK, US, Soviet and ANZAC units.  So on UK Pacific’s turn, UK can move units into India.  On the UK’s Collect Income phase, they get chosen as Commander In Chief.  The Soviet, US and ANZAC forces have to be already in India at this time and those are the ONLY non UK forces that the UK can move next turn.  Even if one of the other countries move more units into India, those new units could NOT be used in the UK’s next turn.
Assuming the UK attacks Burma with the combined force and defeats the Japanese, UK India will get possession of that territory.  Also, I believe the last casualty HAS to belong to the Commander In Chief’s country (in this case, UK).

thanks, you too! so many damn allied planes haha…do you want to switch sides and play again?

Hey, hope everything is (or will be) okay!

best wishes,

Carl

OK mate.  You get a rematch anytime.  Take care

I’ve done it myself,  sometimes you just miss seeing the blitz…yeah sure, I’ll set it up soon, good game

whoops, named the thread wrong, this can be removed
