We should clarify:
US only.
I will mail a map for playtesting.
When we receive the paytest marks and make any changes we will mail you a final map for free printed on vinyl.
This gets expensive so I must limit it to the US to save on postal charges. I will also supply some Marines and painted pieces.

  From this video it appears that we will have to come up with some units to represent forts for the play testing.

Hey guys, here is a suggestion, use the block houses from D-Day to rep your required forts.

Cheers

Yes there are reinforcements that can come on later as needed. We will have to see during the play test if Japan can win. This is my first test game.

Japan cannot win, but there is damage and holding the Americans objectives that give in essence a Japanese victory. Really the Axis cannot win in a Global Axis & Allies game but the scenario must warrant situations where they can achieve some sort of victory. I have played Okinawa, both sides, and it was fun whether I played the Japanese or Americans. As the japanese, I made the AMerican pay for every inch of Island they advanced on.
