Hi JohnnyCat,

First you must study the Axis & Allies Global 1940 House Rules Expansion rulebook.
Then you must practice both on game board and on TripleA.
We suggest that you complete at least 4 games before you sign up.

Hi Neven,
Welcome to the Best & Biggest Axis & Allies site in the World.
The game mechanisms and most units in the Global 1940 version are identical to the Axis & Allies Classic and Revised editions.
Once you have become more familiar with the Global 1940 edition, we suggest that you study the Axis & Allies Global 1940 House Rules Expansion.
When you have studied the Axis & Allies Global 1940 House Rules Expansion we would like to invite you to Denmark to join our Northern European Axis & Allies Wiking-Con events.
Your travel costs will be refunded by us - Danish Axis & Allies Association.
Feel free to contact us anytime.

We have attached the IPC Tracking Chart here below and also at pg. 1 in this thread.
The IPC Tracking Chart is quite useful and gives players an exact overview of the economic situation anytime during the game.
The chart should also be saved after each game in order to evaluate any game when a Strategic Plan needs either to be modified or revised for future games.
We advice all players on both sides to print and use the chart in each game - especially during FTF board games.
Update 10th January 2026: Total number of recorded Axis & Allies games in 2026 played by The Captain: 1
2026: Axis & Allies Global 1940:
If the Japanese-Soviet Pact (Non-Agression Pact) is activated then Mongolia is considered a Strict Neutral on the same terms as any other Strict Neutral Nation.
Note:
The G40 Expansion Strict Neutrals also confirms this scenario (see below).
All players that we are in contact with are playing only or mostly Global 1940.
Maybe you can contact Victoryfirst at this forum - I think he is from Holland also.
Okay, that makes sense.
Anyway - we suggest that you study the Axis & Allies Global 1940 House Rules Expansion.
This version will most likely improve your options to find other players.

The Industrial Complex in Stalingrad (Volgograd) can move to another Original Soviet Territory - and still produce 6 Red Army Conscription Infantry units.
Note:
The IC cannot move and produce 6 RAC Infantry in the same turn.
See more information at pg. 21 in the G40 HRE rulebook.
Hi guys,
I have contacted Cornelis - he is from Urk in Holland - maybe he will answer back.
Captain
Just bought Distinguished. Should I also buy Gold ?
Payment went through without any problems (pay by card - it works!)
Captain
Update 31st December 2025: Total number of recorded Axis & Allies games in 2025 played by The Captain: 37
2025: Axis & Allies Global 1940:
We use magnetic tape on both Aircraft Carriers, Air units and Fligth stands.
See more pictures at the House Rules section - look for Global 1940 & 1943 Expansions Game Reports.
Hi Panzer,
Concerning Landingcraft units:
You can use Landingcraft units as cannonfodder - and yes - they can be used as you described above as part of the attack on Egypt.
Important:
Landingcraft units have no Combat value - they cannot attack or defend. If Landingcraft units are the only surviving land units after all enemy units have been destroyed - and the enemy territory is not captured - your Landingcraft units are lost, since Egypt is Enemy Controlled.
This game mechanism is identical to a friendly territory - with friendly Landingcraft units - which is captured by enemy forces.
Rules Clarification: Concerning Military Victory:
If a Major Capital (Berlin, Moscow, Tokoy, Washington or London) is captured by the enemy - and this Capital is NOT liberated on or before the original owners next turn - then the War is over and a Military Victory has been achieved.
Remember:
Your own and all of your allied Major Capitals must be controlled by friendly forces in order to achieve a Military Victory.
The Winning Conditions are described in the G40 HRE rulebook at pg. 11.
Note:
Concerning Military Victory: One Round of PLay is completed when all Nations have each completed their turn - after a Major Capital has been captured by the enemy.
Example:
In Early 1945 Soviet forces capture Berlin (Germany).
If German forces do not liberate Berlin on the German players next turn (Late 1945) - or if any other Axis forces do not liberate Berlin before the German players next turn - then the Allies have achieved a Military Victory.
The Operation Felix-Steiner Expansion rule has been revised.
Due to the Revised SetUp for Strict Neutrals, the Felix-Steiner Operation has been revised accordingly.
At this point, the Felix-Steiner Expansion rule is not part of the Tournament rules.
Awesome Game Report.
It was fun to watch the game all the way.
Great game guys!
Merry Christmas :-)
Hi barnee,
We are playing 2 more games this weekend - and further 2 games before New Year.
The outcome of these games will decide the final Self-propelled Anti-Aircraft Artillery rules - as well as the rules concerning Self-propelled Artillery unit.
