A clever Russian player would allow a few Chinese territories to die off before they help and liberate them i.e. now they have controll of them as I thought Chinese territories don’t get liberated unless recaptured by China please correct me if im wrong and then the Soviets help China while gaining Ipcs from territories China lost making it best of both worlds for them.
Extra IPC plus having two communist forces attacking Japan
I have only heard this just after the Global game came out now I think its a good strat and the way to counter it is through the dice gods
Maybe have some historical victory conditions such as Soviets having a line of territories form Moscow to Berlin and America liberating all french european teritorries and controlling Berlin
With Trans jordan and egypt taken there is only one sz to block and Germany and JAPAN can help stop the USA from using Gib by using subs to hurt US IPC levels.
@Gargantua:
Making Italy remotely Viable, is all done through Germany pampering her, and coddling her into a fruitful exsistence.
This means you HAVE to build G1 acc and 2 trns. THEN the following turn take GIB and land in Morocco. Whilst using remaining subs and aircraft to keep british ship builds to a minimum.
Here is the reality of the situation. Italy has 4 turns to make themselves a power, or they are garbage. Germany has to put the pressure on GBR to stop them from hurting the italian baby. It’s all done through german threat pressure of “what I can do” as opposed “what I am actually going to do.”
You HAVE to work together, and quickly, to make Italy viable enough that they can defend themselves.
After that it’s about Taking GIB back everytime or as many times as you can, with the odd destroyer block too, to buy more time for the axis. This can also mean too, as it did for me, using German Air and Naval power to decimate early American fleet builds that end up at GIB, again to buy time.
Also Japan needs to help her grow by making the US notice her with the capture of Manila and preforming Pearl Harbour maybe with an eventual capture forces US into taking notice of Japan and try to regain lost territories and possibly KAF(Kill America First not Kill Anzac first) from Japan. KAF see my post in article submission about a revised KAF that could be transfered to Global
Take 2 italy transports with the 4 units to Gibralter, then land German planes, then italy can invade mexico, then take the german planes to mexico to support a KAF japan attack on western usa
I like the KAF idea but why would Germany land much needed planes in America?
Also Four Luftwaffe are not going to help a 1-2-3 punch on America they will probably be killed first round as the attack order on US would have to be Germany-Japan-Italy so that US can’t just rebuild units. A more viable strategy is my i]KAF see my post in article submission about a revised KAF that could be transfered to Global Which has Japan take San Fran and can start putting pressure on America the only problem is that US has three major factories now two and japan can’t deal with that
It would be nice if you could actually play the scenario where Germany and Russia remain best buds for the whole game. It probably would actually have happened like that in real life had Hitler not been such a backstabbing treacherous douchebag.
This tactic was one of Hitler’s best and worst desicion
Best because it stopped him from fighting a war on two fronts although in the end he did
Worst because it allowed the Soviets to build their forces up and provide them time to replace their army that Stalin slaughtered
Pepsi is just a take off of coke and tastes really bad.
but in my opinion I believe halo requires more playing skills than call of duty online.
This is why its better because it is harder to kill someone through luck and requires skills. But learn I would probably say that Cod is easier to learn than halo because it doesn’t require as many skills (not including wii) and so its fairer to play with less expirenced players. I prefer Halo but one good feature with cod is that it has Nazi Zombies. I don’t know if it is on every game but it is on Cod WAW (World at War)

We all know you can combine Europe and Pacific '40 but what about combining other games.
How to combine
G '40 or AAR or AA50 or AA42
Guadalcanal
D-Day
Battle of the BulgeWhen America attacks Solomon Islands rather than having a normal battle play Guadalcanal
When America/UK attacks Normandy or France with and Amphibous play D-Day
When Germany launchs a counter attack against a ally controlled France that has been liberated play Battle of the BulgeThe winner of these ‘Mini games’ takes control of the teritory
I have read that AAG40 takes a long time to play but this will beat that easily. Remember that not all of the games have the same pieces so if you try Guadalcanal with Revised you will not have a cruiser in Revised.
You can add the piece from other game sets or remove it from Guadlacanal
@i:
wow that would take awile. though it woudnt work that well in my oppenion because only four teritorys would use this
Yes. Also, for any general battle, play an AA miniatures game
This would make it work for all territories
@spartan:
@The:
Base map for a Stalingrad/Urban Afghanistan map
It will use a square map system like the hex system but with squares
I would actually prefer if hexes were used they seem to work better in most games than squares
I mgiht use hex for stalingrad but for afghanistan to work our explosion radius for rpgs
Italy landings
Map
4 powers three playable
Italy
U.S
U.K
Germany (Italian reinforcements)
Starts with UK/US landing units on Sardinia or Sicily
Base map for a Stalingrad/Urban Afghanistan map
It will use a square map system like the hex system but with squares
I’m talking about where a power has turtled with lots of inf.
i.e.
Def
70 inf
10 art
5 arm
aa
Att
30 Inf
30 Art
30 arm
10 Fig
5 Bmr
Yes that rule was absolutely rubbish in the former world war AA games like AAR
I’m tired of seeing infantry take down fighters where in real life this would be impossible.
So I devised this rule for land v air
Art and AA guns are the only land units that may attack air units.
If Art attacks air they can’t attack land and attack at a 1 at the same time AA guns fire. If AA guns get increased attack i think Radar tech does this then Art gets the same bonus. If there is no AA gun present Art only attack at a 1 but still in the opening fire step.
Thats what would happen anyway if a power attacks a true neutral. Its just that the other side may occupy it for free.
But then how many points = how many IPC value of units?
What tanks are heavies,mediums and lights?
In G '40 no Axis player wants to attack a true neutral because the give America the South American true neutrals and free IPCS.
Why not change the True neutral rule to that all true neutrals are independent of each other and a attack on one does not enrage any other. This is a continuation of IL’s block rules but splitting it into individual countries being a ‘block’
There probably is a way to work out how many Mini game units = how many large game units
We all know you can combine Europe and Pacific '40 but what about combining other games.
