Ok, sure!

Last bump, sorry disqualified

I think the allies need a lot of help in Global.  Trouble is, if the bid gets too big they can put it all in one theatre and unbalance the situation on one side of the map.  So what I propose is a rule for bids that says you must place 50% of your bid on the Europe map and 50% on the Pacific map.  If the bid is an odd number, you can place 50%+1 on one side.  So for example if the bid is $17 you would have to place 8 or 9 in each side.  This rule would allow bids to get a lot larger and give the allies a fighting chance, while keeping it reasonable on each side of the world.

I you want to switch sides and try with the same bid sometime just PM me and we’ll have a rematch  :-)

@Gargantua:

This is the most epic description I have ever heard.

imminent cataclysm of stupidity.

Love it… ;)

Why thank you.

But I typed it with equal terror, despair, and shame.

Playing allies is hard.

oooo I like the options the germans get with swapping the bat for an acc.

That’s got to come in handy!

Wait…

I thought that stuff was called -Antijapper-?

@Muuzza671:

hmm……ok maybe too long.  XD

To long, comrade.

That SHOULD A US bonus. They need more offensive oriented bonuses.
It feels like they are too reactionary (take back X, don’t lose Y) and all in the pacific.

They should have a homeland bonus for 20
and 2 Pacific bonuses and 2 Atlantic bonuses.

Atlantic:
5 IPCs if the Axis controls no territory in the middle east or Africa
5 IPCs for allied Co-occupation of either of the following: Normandy/Bordeaux, Holland/Belgium

Pacific
5 IPCs for control of the Philippines
5 IPCs if the Allies control Hawaii, Midway, and any three Japanese islands

The ammount of material Russia would need to send to take Turkey would be enough that Germany could just walk right on to moscow… That extra 2 dollars russia now has will be going in Germanys bank.
