Hi!

I have finally arranged a day with this game, together with 3 other players. All have played Global before, two of them are still what I would call “inexperienced” in the depth of the rules.
Most often when the four of us have played, the two are experienced on each side.

However, they are not completely new either, and these are small things we need to “fix” when we play the Global version.

So my question is, which new features are the most important to explain in relation to the rules, and possibly show examples of before we start?

I think myself
Convoy attacks, and protection Malta rules Supply, how they are used and when. As well as splitting up. Flank attacks Miners Scout Cars, desert movement, Coastal Road. Stagging territories
Is there anything else that is important to show? The rules have been sent to them, and they read them beforehand. But my own experience is that it is significantly easier to understand when you are sitting with the game in front of you.

@AndrewAAGamer said in L24 OOB LL AndrewAAGamer (X) vs Myygames (L +60):

Thank you for the game!

I wanted to try something different and see if the Japanese could help the Germans take Moscow fast enough to make up for the Yunnan Stack. Obviously, it is not going to work. Can’t figure out how to combat that Yunnan Stack.

Thank you for the game!

I was actually still alert that Moscow would fall within the next 3 turns. Your pressure was high, and I did not consider this game won yet. Loosing Moscow would have made this very complicated for me.
I agree that china was off the leash and unstoppable. There was little chance for Japan to regain the upper hand on the mainland. But then, I think we have seen in several games that j can survive, and can even be aggressive towards India / islands without china. I was not expecting that your goal is to regain china, I feared that your goal is to survive snd help Germany with their victory.

Well played, lots of headaches, much appreciated!
