@gamerman01 I think this is a great idea and would be a lot of fun. I just don’t have the time for the next few months to join in. But hope you can find a couple of others soon.

Here’s how AI synthesized my setup ideas, just for fun
🛡 G40 2v2 Variant: Coordinated Resistance
A historical balance tweak for two-player teams in Axis & Allies Global 1940
📜 Purpose
This variant addresses inherent coordination challenges in Allied 2v2 team formats. Since Germany and Japan benefit from more focused strategic alignment, this proposal introduces modest unit boosts for the Allies to reflect historical deployments, improve survivability, and sustain competitive pacing.
🎲 Setup Adjustments
Each change adheres to the “1 unit per territory/zone” guideline.
🌊 Pacific Theater Nation Territory/Zone Unit Change Historical Rationale Japan Okinawa -1 fighter Reduces excessive early air mobility Japan Japan (home) -1 tactical bomber Streamlines complexity, balances air power China Chahar +1 infantry Represents local resistance and rearguard China Anhwe +1 infantry Delays Axis advance toward central China China Hopei +1 infantry Strengthens northern front line UK (Pacific) India +1 infantry Helps sustain Burma Road defense 🌍 Europe Theater Nation Territory/Zone Unit Change Historical Rationale UK SZ 101 +1 destroyer Bolsters Atlantic convoy defense UK Egypt +1 infantry Reinforces defense against Italy UK SZ 91 +1 destroyer Slows Italian fleet mobility UK SZ 110 +1 destroyer Adds protection vs German naval threat UK SZ 71 (S. Africa) +1 transport Enhances reach into East Africa / India USSR Ukraine +1 infantry Bolsters defense on Dnieper front USSR Russia (Moscow) +1 infantry Strategic depth for capital defense USSR East Poland +1 fighter Reflects pre-Barbarossa Soviet air presence 🧠 Gameplay Rationale Historical Anchoring: Each unit placement references plausible pre-June 1940 deployments or logistical positioning. Balance Correction: Enhances Allied survivability without nullifying Axis initiative. Team Dynamics: Supports distributed Allied coordination across two players, mitigating decision friction. 📝 Submission Notes
This variant was inspired by recurring imbalances in competitive 2v2 matchups and aligns with existing tournament bid frameworks (40–60 IPCs typical). It’s designed to remain compatible with official rules, requiring only setup tweaks rather than structural overhaul.
