yea that’s what i decided as well. So if France or UK want to attack Italy for it Italy should get the bonus dudes. Actually probably only France would attack turn one and they’re toast turn 2 so doesn’t matter then.
Cool on the playtest. I finally got one going again 
@oztea
Is Italy allowed to attack Greece without DOW against France and or UK ? My first thought was no, but on reflection idk.
heh heh the guys musta known they were getting their picture taking. Gunner and pilot both looking at the camera
Nice photo. I’m assuming soviets didn’t have much air to intercept ?
The issue with targeting ANZAC is, for me, an economic one. For Japan to acquire ANZAC’s 10 IPC/turn, they have to capture a total of seven territories. On the other hand, just four territories - Sumatra, Java, Borneo and Celebes - will net 20 IPC/turn for Japan. My alternative to your scenario is this:
J1 Move one transport and one sub from Japan to the Carolines.
J2 Declare war, then use transport + 1 INF from Carolines to take New Guinea. Also take Malaya as soon as possible (these actions deny ANZAC National Objectives, costing them 10 IPC/turn). Use naval forces in Carolines to take out ANZAC fleet.
On subsequent turns, park subs in sea zones 54, 62 and 63. This can reduce ANZAC income to as little as 3 IPC/turn, virtually taking them out of the fight without investing a significant chunk of the Japanese navy, as well as ground forces.
As mentioned, you are not limited to the number of plastic bits.
You can;
a) use the grey chips underneath to represent 1 each
b) buy more mini poker chips and use them under each piece
c) buy more plastic bits (either separately, like for example through HistoricalBoardGaming.com or by buying a second copy)
d) write it down (least attractive option tbh)

Hi Window
Welcome to the site. You could do that. Idk if that’s the only counter though. I’m not a real good global player but there are a lot here who are. Sure you’ll get a few replies. Just wanted to say hello
It’s expensive because it’s hard to find, especially new/in-shrink.
8 years ago is a VERY LONG time ago for a reprint.
yea ftrs and bmbrs are the flavor for sure. Ftrs are air fodder pretty much
@simon33 said in G40 Balance Mod - Feedback Thread:
So I’d be in favour of a reduction in attack to 2 and perhaps a cost reduction to 10. But no doubt that would be too controversial for the community to accept.
yea the guys have it down pretty good for the most part it seems, so you’d only want to do a small change. I guess you could always propose an optional rule such as the Marines but it’s probably best to keep everybody on the same page as much as possible.
At any rate be cool to see what they come up with.
