  For House Rules. I’ve played with different IPC value and created a Fast Fleet Oiler that allows Sea units to travel 3 spaces.

  Sweet :)

  Would you post your House rules at the house rule thread too ?

  @thethedew I don’t own the game, but I think the main point of it is that it is not WW2 based. This way the game has appeal to people who aren’t that interested in WW2.

  Let us know what you think after you’ve played a couple of games.

  Hi Panzer,

  Any Air Base that you control from the beginning of your turn can be upgraded with Heavy Industry 2 Units in order to scramble up to 4 friendly Fighter units.

  In other words - an Air Base that is purchased during the game can be upgraded on the same terms as an Air Base that exists from game start.

  @OlivieroRuggieri Yes, I agree that in the Torch Scenario the Axis cannot hope to capture Cairo. Best they can manage is to stall out the Allied attack and deny UK income by controlling Malta.

  One thing I would recommend is having the Axis retreat from the MM battle during round 8. That way they can fight in Tobruk where you can bring reinforcements and take advantage of the ability to re-roll dice that show a “9” or “10”.

  In fact for the moment we still love the AA42 2d Edition for many reasons like the interception rules that is officially this way :

  Both the attacking bombers and fighter escorts, if any, fire with an attack value of 1.
  For each “1” rolled, a defending interceptor is immediately removed as a casualty. The surviving defending interceptors then fire with a defense value of 2.
  For each result of “2” or less, the attacker chooses a casualty and removes it.
  After the air battle is complete, or if there were no defending fighter interceptors, surviving fighter escorts are considered to be
  retreated. They don’t participate in the actual bombing raid, are not subject to antiaircraft fire, and will remain in the territory
  until the Noncombat Move phase. Any surviving attacking bombers carry out the bombing raid as described above.

  Plus we ask the defending factory to pay directly in IPCs the bombing (max twice the value of the territory) like in the old versions!

  Fast & Fun!

  @taamvan

  Agreed for the most part. I will add to those who haven’t played the game that the full effects of the Joe income advantage don’t come into play until the 5th or 6th round, so Cobra have around half of the game to try to eke out a victory.

  @Krieghund Thank you for the swift reply. I don’t think that thought crossed my opponent’s mind (we usually play Global, so the idea of attacking Germany…and leaving oneself open to counterattack…is not on the radar).

  Zombies is a different game.

  @Faramir said in Global 1942 Scenario by Larry Harris:

  Would it be unbalanced if Germany went before the Soviets? The Germans should be able to start pushing towards Stalingrad in 1942, not being driven out of Russia on the first turn.

  Yeah it’s really more like 1943. The Germans have lost the initiative on the eastern front.

  Re: Best Strategy & Tactics For Both Sides Well I just finished 2 games as the Central Powers one with contested territory and one without… I somehow won both!! Both of my opponents were very capable but I figured out a way to win. If you are playing with the allies I have no strategy for you but here is my strategy for the CP contested territory version as that is what most people are playing. Here goes:

  AH: Charge your navy at Italy because there is an ok chance you might win. Then attack Venice with both of your adjacent territories. Attack Romania with all of Budapest and Galacia. then move troops from Vienna and Bohemia to Galacia. After that you can attack Russia from both Ukraine and Sevatapol with those forces because as you will see with Germany Poland will be tied up. It is pretty self explanatory after that. I bought a battleship every turn just to keep Italy from being able to land troops.

  Germany: Throw all your navy (including subs) at Brittons home fleet on the first turn then take out Belgium with Alsace and the rurh’s forces and move Munich’s into Alsace. that will settle the western front for a while. so move the men in Prussia and Silesia into Poland(no mater the amount of Russians) then send everything else to the Russian front. I also bought a battleship a turn untill my navy was completely destroyed then I bought 2 a turn. you should also probably send a few extra troops to the western front each turn just to help out a bit. after that it should be self explanatory. But I would suggest going straight for Moscow instead of signing the armastice unless you don’t have enough troops.

  Otoman Empire: Don’t buy troops… ever… just buy battleships because if Italy’s navy gets destroyed then you can go after Brittons fleet. You can hold out with the troops you have already until your fleet is ready. also I chose to attack Serbia with the Bulgarian troops I got but it’s kinda up to you.

  As you can probably tell by now the CP need lots of navy to survive not just stonks of infantry. I also employed a very swift advance on the Russians and bogged down the allies with as little infantry as needed. A timely purchase of tanks will secure your victory on the west after the fall of russia. I really hope this helps!! And have a fun time playing the CP!!!

  @Rescue55-joe I believe the “10 IPCs for each country” that you are referring to are actually the National Control Markers, which are used to track both conquered territories and national production levels. As barnee pointed out, IPCs are not physically provided, and the Rulebook instructs us to track them on paper, but any proxy (such as Monopoly money) will do. See page 7 of the Rulebook for details on both National Control Markers and IPCs.

  In a nutshell, the National Production Track is used to chart your “income” using a National Control Marker. and every turn the “money” goes into your “bank account”, which is represented by IPCs, where it can be spent on new units (or saved for later).

  I hope this helps.

  Hi Darth,

  Yea - those Expansions brought tons of fun & challenge.

  Since then, we have developed the Axis & Allies Global 1940 House Rules Expansion - inspired by and based on those Expansions.

  You can find the Axis & Allies Global 1940 House Rules Expansion on this forum - and as you read your way through these Expansion rules you’ll recall all the good memories from the early 90’s - and much more.

  @Meles I’ve had good luck monitoring Facebook Marketplace and eBay and waiting until the $15 mark or so. I think AA41 is a great source of ‘variant’ pieces you can dot with a paint marker for Early/Late, Heavy/Light, or just mix-in variety versions of the standard units. Others are game-readable and useful right out of the box e.g. Japanese carriers & TBD/DDLs, Russian IS-2s, German Tigers, and US P-40s (finally get that P-38 out of China!). In my experience, the color match over the years is no worse than any other edition-to-edition variation.

  @SuperbattleshipYamato

  May 1st, 2025 is the 80th anniversary of Joseph Goebbels’ suicide.

  Joseph Goebbels was one of the most fanatical and powerful members of the Nazi Party, serving as the Reich’s propaganda minister and named as succeeding Hitler as Chancellor of Germany (Admiral Karl Donitz would succeed as President, with both positions previously held by Hitler).

  When the Soviets rejected his ceasefire offer, Goebbels and his wife killed their children, likely with cyanide, then committed suicide themselves.
