Generally pacific builds consists of a 2 to 1 ratio of subs-destroyer. Following turn is 5-6 bombers. This forces Japan to start building fleet instead of troops for India/China crush.
I just had to give som additional thumbs up fo9r this comment :D Buying other combat ships than subs, dds (Or CW + ftrs) is rarely correct. the 2 to 1 ratio shos that sean knows how fodder works and how it is the most important thing in these battles.
The only reason to stop buying the subs is if japan for some reason dont respond with fleetbuilding and only buys planes instead. But then you should win anyways :D
which is why i said that it didn’t work against a too planeheavy japan. on theory, the DDs + other surface ships ofc needs to be enough to stop all the planes of japan + 2 rounds of plane only builds of japan.
What would prevent japan from attacking your fleet of subs-destroyers with air and a few destroyers. With 20+ planes they can whipe out your whole fleet with minimal losses as subs cant even hit the planes.
I normaly go for a carrier heavy fleet followed by subs destroyers for attacking power. Ideally i want my carriers to bait an early attack from japan that i can crush in the counter and get his carriers and BB out of the way so anzac and UKP can clean up the rest.

Keredex,
Excellent job with these aids…really helpful when we need to record and verify a take-down and re-set-up at a later date. I don’t have access to a large format printer and really appreciate the 8 1/2" X 11" option.
One question, will you be correcting the starting IPC values for UK Europe and Pacific in this format?
Thanks again.
Are you referring to the Alpha 2 corrections?
@FieldMarshalGames:Do I have your permission to upload this on the FMG site to share? Free Download section?
thank you for asking… but i would like to 1st make sure everything is correct before you post them there.
also, as for changes… is alpha 2 an optional version or the official changes to play the game properly? i want to know if there is even a need for the original pages

Keredrex,
first I’ll echo everyone else and say “THANKS!” for creating these sheets they are really great.
I believe DTDeGrave was asking about a regular format sheet with the Alpha + 2 corrections. From my (limited knowledge) Alpha+2 is a the current set of rules endorsed by Larry Harris (the game designer). A quick quote from his post over at his forums (harrisgamedesign.com)“Please use the following setups, National Objectives and listed rules when playing Global 1940. These rules, or the final variation of these rules will appear in future re-prints of Axis & Allies Pacific 1940 and Axis & Allies Europe 1940.”
Larry HarrisI love the initial sheet you created, and the large format Alpha+2 sheet is great, but not everyone has access to a large format printer. If you have/can easily modify the initial sheet for the Alpha+2 changes (different turn order, and different starting IPC) as you have for your large format sheet, I’m sure it would be greatly appreciated by those with out access to a large printer.
Great Job,
Kaffieen -

Kaffieenawesome… ill adjust the regular format sheets and post them as soon as I can

here are the Alpha 2 regular format sheets
When printing layout should be set to Short Edge Binding.
This will enable pages to be printed correctly so the charts for each country rounds are in the correct position front and back.enjoy
