@general-6-stars
How long time does it take for you guys to play 6 rounds?
Depends on how many players we have.
4 players 6 rounds probably 8-9 hours
6 players best. 4 on Europe side and 2 on pacific side. The 7th player would then go to FEC/Anzac. About 9-10 hours for 7-8 rounds.
Here’s pic of the tech and income with the 2 NA each country got to use in game and victory points. Axis down to 150 income. Not good.
Changes to game are a few territory values were moved to other territory values to help Japan get a few more icps.
Also added 12 japan inf to setup. They just still don’t quite have enough on land it seems from last 8 games played. Also Hawaii lost 2 trans and an Art to slow them down a bit. Still seems they get to money islands a bit to fast or a bit to strong on ground.
Still maybe a tweak yet but next game Feb 19 the plan. Did some more map tweaks with borders and added an AB to Tobruk with the CW-30 desert rats. Nice to see movement a bit in desert to help with more of an N Africa campaigns.
Here’s the end of turn 6 when the axis conceded.

Perfect,
I’ll start planning.
We are already 2-5 players who would like to come.
I’ll send you pm when I know more
We would need to start training with your 1941 game during this spring and summer.
Oh wow that would be super sweet ! Ya let me know.
This is a game report from Saturdays game were the allies won.
Germany went a different route this game and was going south and also helping Italy more with German planes taking out the UK Med fleet. Based on reports Germany ended up losing to many figs early in game too probably.
He lost Finland early but got back and even lost Romania which cost him 11 icps ( oil ) and Mother Russia got that gain for a turn which is very nice for them. SO more resources have to go back and recover those areas.
Germany also got spanked a bit going after the 2 UK fleets around London turn 1 and put a damper on things also there.
US did operation Torch again and took Morocco and Gib. But with no UK fleet in Med they ended up going to Western France next turn. Italy ended up making some decent money to help Germany a bit but just to much loses to recover.
Germany did try a desperation last ditch effort to do sea lion but failed.
Pacific side japan started out good and got money islands for more income and then US had to do something and boldly moved ALL his naval fleet into the middle of Dutch islands of Sumatra, Borneo.
Did take back those islands along with Singapore. On Japans next turn he moved all his fleet to attack with planes that US fleet. Did kill all ships but US naval planes retreated to Java.
Then for the next 3 turns just bought Fast Carriers so his planes had a place to land and pushed into Asia coast and could of taken Hong Kong but based on axis victory points didn’t need to yet.
I’ll post 2 pics of game on last turn of game.
There will be some tweaks to setup based on Japan has so much to do and can’t do it and need to delay the US kind a some on first turn.
Ya it would be cool if you came to US.
As I mentioned before I’m only 30 mins from Milwaukee and 60 mins from Chicago.
Plus barnee only 5-6 hours away from me.
Plenty of motels 2 miles away on 94 interstate hwy.
Allies won the game. Germany tried a different route and got spanked a bit and mother russia showed up with her bears !
The long range desert rats was a nice piece to have as far as a small threat from the desert and a nice piece to have as a first strike unit alone or with own troops based on it can pick the kill shot. Also it has a chance to damage a airbase in Tobruk on turn 1 or later if Italy doesn’t leave enough troops there.
Based on history both sides had major AB in Tobruk anyway.
Just happened to me. I think you have to click on the done button then you can post. I wasn’t paying attention so I was just clicking on buttons.
It only happens to me when I want to post a pic sometimes.

Heres the vid for yesterday’s game. Report later today or morning.
Some Generals
@trig Making them another faction and (their own turn) might imbalance the game since your adding more non china/USSR/Califate turns which are more opportunities to stop the bad faction. Its like making Romania or Finland have separate turns which benefit Germany in a WW2 setting since they go after Russia and Russia does not have the benefit of a reply except on their own turn
@the-janus I hope you could do a write up on Great War by Imp games? Im not versed in this game, but i do have it somewhere
