I agree Genghis Khan united Mongolia and was a superb leader. Napoleon and his hero Alexander the great are also strong contenders. But i would have to say that Attila the Hun would be my favourite leader a man who could be the thorn in the the side of the great Roman empire must be a great leader.

RE: Revised Global 1940: Rules of Neutralityposted in House Rules
This would probably end the allies use for spain so i think it shoul be strict neutral otherwise it will just be anothe rpart of the Atlantic Wall.
This also simplifies the G3 Strict neutral crush see: http://www.axisandallies.org/forums/index.php?topic=20028.0

RE: Japan strategyposted in Axis & Allies Global 1940
Japan should try and protect itself if it takes Hawai. The british will send big attacks from india into Japanese controlled Chinese territories trying to create a pathway between shanghai and india.
KAF could be a viable strategy if you don’t do pearl harbour but it allows Britain the major threat to build an army and make India hard to take if Britain build a lot of infantry. KUKF would be more viable and then just pick the ANZAC’s of at you leisure. Maybe preform pearl harbour a little later as the US will look to attack the European Axis’ weak underbelly Italy and you can attempt to make them draw there forces back to the pacific by taking Hawai and threating San Fransisco maybe making Sea Lion more viable as the U.S might not want to risk lossing their territories attempting to liberate the UK. This also means that the Germans don’t have to be as worried about becoming a turtle and can attack the SU.

Couple of questionsposted in Axis & Allies Global 1940
If Japan takes control of Chinese territories if another Ally liberates that territory does China regain control of it? What about Shanghai if the allies liberate it?
Also can you attack from Africa to Gilbartar through the strait and other straits?

RE: Thunda down under A&A game mapposted in Other Axis & Allies Variants
I could add them as an optional extra power. Like Italy in revised edition.

Silly questionposted in Miniatures (Original)
Hi i’m wondering can anyone explain to me what the mini’s are? Do you use them as replacment pieces for proper A&A games?
-
RE: Global '40 Medalsposted in House Rules
Next round you always get extra units but because they were the best Attacker/Defender last game they get extra units next turn.

RE: Germany True Neutral Crush G3posted in Axis & Allies Global 1940

RE: Axis or Allies Wins in Those Who Have Played Global…List them here.posted in Axis & Allies Global 1940
This is a game you should probably have set up always maybe in a spare room so you don’t waste time setting up and cleaning up everytime just sit down and play and then re set it?

RE: Fav country in g40 now that its outposted in Axis & Allies Global 1940
FOUR people voted France? Weird. I mean, France would be my favourite if they weren’t doomed to be useless by their first turn. I mean, the colonial infantry and the sparse ships could win a battle or two, but nothing beyond that.
Now 7 people have voted for France maybe these are people who always play as Germany? They probably like it 'cause its a walkover :lol:

RE: Thunda down under A&A game mapposted in Other Axis & Allies Variants
I’m going to add in some parts of desserts and make it impassable. Also I am planning on re-modelling some of the territories.
Quick question for anyone who is interested would you like Fiji as a playable power? If so please post soon as once the territories are done i will begin play testing.
Extra powers welcome
No Japan suggestions because i’m playing on trying to remove the WWII idea.
Thanks

RE: Japan's GLOBAL Political Situation…quick question..!posted in Axis & Allies Global 1940
No, it won’t affect UK either. However, a DOW on UK allows US to DW on japan and Germany and Italy
I thought that a dow on UK doesn’t affect US so it can’t DW any Axis unless an axis power has DW on US

RE: Fav country in g40 now that its outposted in Axis & Allies Global 1940
I haven’t played G 40 yet but my Fav country will probbably be the U.S.S.R as always because I like their tanks. My order will probably be:
U.S.S.R
Germany
Italy
Japan
U.S
U.K
ANZAC
China

RE: Realism rulesposted in House Rules
You should make the only land units that can kill aircraft(Except AA’s) should be Art.
Jap BS should be extra strong in ATT and Def because they were the best BS in the war.
-
RE: Global '40 Medalsposted in House Rules
Yeah like reward cards.
For a game where everyone plays each power you could give the player with the best att and best def points a prize or they could get extra units at the start of your next game.
I.E.
Random guy 1
SU: 53 ATT points
FRA: 7 ATT points
Ger: 123 ATT points
…
Total att points: xNext game gets extra units
