Oh…
I’ve been playing wrong this entire time???
:disappointed:
Thanks for clarifying though. I’ll take that into my next physical game.
Axis & Allies Global 1940 House Rules Expansion
-
Just to double check, Tac Bmbrs can’t attack them ?
Edit
One more :) Pen can defend U-boats in multiple SZs ? So 1 Pen in Normandy could protect 2 in 110 and 1 in 105 ?It doesn’t say they can’t, so I’m thinking so.
-
Only Strategic Bomber units and Heavy Bomber units can attack U-Boat Pen units.
A U-Boat Pen unit can protect a maximum of 3 U-Boat units in a SZ.
If multiple SZ are adjacent to the territory that has a U-Boat Pen unit, that U-Boat Pen unit can protect up to 3 U-Boat units as long as these U-Boat units are in a SZ that is adjacent to the territory with the U-Boat Pen unit.This game mechanism is the same as a Naval Base and Air Base that is adjacent to multiple SZ.
-
yea that makes sense. Harbor will boost units from both SZs.
Idk how I missed your reply but I did :)Would you add the US/UK LL to the first page too. I’m adding for UK next update so they’ll work like russia. Almost done :)

We are working on the grafics for the UK-US Lend Lease rule - I’ll add it to the first page asap.

@The-Captain said in Axis & Allies Global 1940 House Rules Expansion:
We advice all players to use those extra additional Optional Rules only when you have gained solid experience with the Optional Rules included in the Revised Rulebook.
Extra additional optional rules… that made me laugh 😂

I have two questions.
Can a Tank Army amphibiously assault, and still fight as a Tank Army? Or are the dice advantages lost?
When forming an Army Group with four armies, two armies should function as the “armies”, while the other two function as the land-based combat units. Only one army can be active in an Army Group. Should the army that’s active be one of the “armies”, or can you also choose an army that functions as a part of the land-based combat units?
For example, Smolensk contains two Panzer Armies and two Waffen armies, nothing else. Germany wants to create an Army Group. He can do so by selecting the Waffen armies as the “armies”, and the two Panzer armies as the 10 land-based combat units. Can one of the Panzer armies be active during combat, or can only a Waffen-army get its dice advantages when fighting?
-
Tank Armies cannot amphib attack as an Army. They would lose there bonus. They can reform after battle, if there are enough to do so.
If I remember correctly, 1 of the 2 Armies/Corps, must be the active one. If you are in your Capital, you can have both Armies/Corps active.
The other Armies/Corps can be part of the 10 required land units.
For individual Armies/Corps, only 1 can be a Oberst, PG or Commiesar. So can’t have 2 TG and 4 Tanks make up a Tank Army.
Edit
So in your example, only one of the Waffen Armies would get the bonus.
However, You could have 1 waffen and 1 PG be the Armies and the other two make up the 10 land units. -
When calculating the total Allied income value to check for an Economic Victory, is the income value of France included as well, when Paris is occupied by the Axis? Or only once Paris has been liberated?
-
@VictoryFirst all ipc is counted including French.
Even when French is not liberated. After the French turn, you count all allies or axis ipc -
Just the ones printed on the map. The Pacific island increases don’t count.
Or they do ?
-
@barnee we always count the ipc tracker. If you conquer an island for example Caroline islands, then the US will get 3 extra ipc income.
Also japan decrease 3 ipc income.
It’s very important to use a ipc chart card.
Always checking the total income. -
so the pacific island bonuses do count. OK thanks for that. It wasn’t clear to me
-
@barnee
Only when you conquer an island or country then the ipc level is changed correctly.
From game start, yes the additional ipc level of the islands is not changed in the ipc tracker -
yes but for Economic victory they do count. I thought it was just game start IPC values that are used for convoy values throughout the game that counted.
Thanks for clarifying it.
@VictoryFirst I didn’t mean to doubt you :) I just thought they didn’t count because it said no bonuses in the rulebook :)
-
@barnee, because of the extra ipc value given to the pacific islands, the islands become extremely important.
For the axis it is vital that Japan attacks this islands as fast as possible before the allies will get the upper-hand in the pacific. -
yes Victory has pointed out several errors the way i was playing them. They definitely play differently than how i thought. :)
Kinda like a new puzzle to figure and i never figured the last one :)
Thanks for the replies. I think Victory not too far from you. Maybe you guys can hook up at one of the The Captain’s Tournaments :)
-
@barnee I have already visited the Captain multiply times. We play every year around Christmas a whole weekend axis en allies.
I saw in the last game report that you took Moscow
That’s quit impressive 💪🏻
Never being able to achieve that 😂
Anyway goodluck in you’re next game -
heh heh it was a moral victory and the first time i have ever done it :)
-
@Cornelis-Post
Barnee has nerves of steel! The attack was pretty risky, but he decided against it and actually managed to roll well enough to capture it! Sadly it didn’t change the outcome of the game though. It’s for me the first time too that Moscow got sacked :) -
The Winning Conditions are described at pg. 11.
An Economic Victory includes (only) the Combined IPC Level for all Nations of the same alliance on the Expanded National Production Chart (ENPC).
Any IPC that are collected according to Advanced Production Capacity and National Objective Bonus Income do not count towards the Economic Victory Conditions.Example:
When the US player captures Caroline Islands, the US player’s IPC Income Level is increased with 3 IPC at the Expanded National Production Chart- and Japan’s IPC Level is decreased with 3 IPC accordingly.
The US IPC increase at 3 IPC naturally counts towards the Economic Victory Conditions.
