@barnee

It includes all types of Air units - except Carrier Based Fighter units.

So, yes - Strategic Bomber units are also eligible for US-UK Lend-Lease

@The-Captain

Great Thank you

@The-Captain said in Global 1940 US & UK Lend-Lease:

The US & UK Lend-Lease rule will be included in the the 4th Northern Europe Axis & Allies Wiking-Con which will be held in Denmark in Early 2024.

Game Reports will soon after be posted at the Global 1940 & 1943 Expansions Game Report Thread

So it’s not included for this year then ? I didn’t see it, just want to make sure.

Edit
Oh yea, might want to add to the optional list too, as it’s not there. The one with all the cool new stuff :)

@barnee

We decided to create a new set of Tournament Rules for general use in all Wiking-Cons as well as the 2026 World Championship.

This set of Tournament rules is described at the “Events” thread, inkluding the Wiking-Con Tournaments.

@The-Captain Good morning Sir Captain. Can Heavy Bombers be part of the Air Lend-Lease? Or only fighters, tacs, and Strat Bombers?

@Trout

Hi Trout

My understanding is they can.

Dang, that’s OP.

[The Captain]

Yes - Heavy Bomber units can be part of the US & UK Lend-Lease rule.

Remember:
Heavy Bomber units do not enter the game until Late 1943.

Note:
When the Atomic Bomb Expansion is part of the game, the US player must consider if Heavy Bomber units should be Lend-Lease transfered to United Kingdom, since only Heavy Bomber units can transport an Atomic Bomb unit.

@The-Captain Okay, thanks. Those Heavy Bombers are awesome. They are expensive but USA has money and it has a solution to USA’s biggest issue which is getting its power across the ocean. But no problem with the Heavy Bombers. They can take off from Washington, DC, bomb SZ 6 or SZ 112, and land in Soviet Union or London. Literally spans the globe. Now with Allied LL, they can start in Washington, Move to London, join the RAF, and bomb Berlin or Rome all in one turn also. Gives an outstanding counter to all of those Nazi superweapons. Thanks so much for investing alot of your life in creating this outstanding game
