Is a "port" simply a territory with a naval base? If so, this means you're adding to the advantages already given by the naval base?

Japan - "Siberia, Sakhe, Amur and the Soviet Far East are now a National Objective. (5 IPC)" - Didn't the USSR and Japan have a nonagression treaty? Then why would this be a NO?

Interesting bit of history here.  In 1927, Baron Gishi Tanaka, the Prime Minister of Japan, presented to the Emporer the "Tanaka Memorial" which was basically a detailed plan for world conquest by Japan.  In it, one of the aims was to occupy and control all Russian territory east of Lake Baikal, which was bacially the eastern 1/3 of Russia.  So, if you went by the "Tanaka Memorial" those four Soviet territories would make a good national objective for Japan.

Hasn't the Tanaka memorial been shown as a hoax?

Is the East Africa game done?

Any updates on these games?

What is the status of these games right now?

Oh, now it has Global 1940 Alpha?

Can you link me to the 1.4 download? I can only find 1.3 on the website.

When I tried to download this game on Triple A, I got a game called Russia vs China instead(it's on the Pacific 1940 map, with even setups for Japan, India, US and ANZAC, but not P40). Is this supposed to happen?

Looks like it has the 7 Diplomacy powers and no one else(no US, Japan, etc.)

Is the board just Europe or the entire world?

Back to the topic for one moment. Who believes that Larry has finalized the Global 1940 rules, and who thinks there will be more alpha changes?

Were I a betting man, I'd expect more changes. If nothing else some changes need to be made to fix the last round of changes that were made

He said final revisions on 2 November 2011.  That's tomorrow, so we'll probably have a "final" set of rules and the new games will probably ship with them.

Source?

Discussion thread that the rules are listed in on his own website.

Yep. All you have to do is search for it in the 210 pages.

What's CRD?

For the rule that Japanese units can't be 2 sea zones away from WUS/Alaska, does that mean 2 sea zones away from SZs 1, 2, 10 or 1 SZ away? I'm assuming the former since that prevents the Japanese from invading WUS/Alaska when they declare war(except if they use SZ 6, of course)

So how balanced is this version?
