Welcome Talleyrand

Triplea is a way to play online. You’ll find a lot of info under software. Here’s a good one: http://www.axisandallies.org/forums/index.php?topic=27127.0

YG made some strategy guides you’ll find helpful here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QGow98LUYl4

Scroll towards the bottom of the forums and you’ll find “find players”. You can post there to find an opponent.

@knp7765:

Hey YG,
Something I forgot to ask about. I noticed in your video that you have already printed on the map your air and naval bases. Also, your convoy routes are much bolder and easier to see. Otherwise it looks like a standard Global 40 map. How did you get it with the air and naval bases printed on the map and the bolder convoy routes. I really like the convoy routes.

Hey KNP, this map was a colaberation between Ambilzi and myself, I used photoshop to place the base icons everywhere, but I don’t know how Ambilzi enhanced the convoy and kamikaze symbols. here is where you can find the downloadable file if you want to print your own map…

@daefish:

Okay so if I land US trooper on a land zone that has Italian troops on it and one german soldier but I’m not at war with Germany, this is not a valid combat move until I’m at war with Germany.

If US troops attacked an Italian territory that also has German units in it, you would basically be declaring war on Germany at that point. In land battles, all Allied units defend together so there is no way not to have war between US and Germany.
I think that going strictly by the rules you are supposed to declare war on a nation before making your combat move, but I think most players simply take the combat move as the DOW without making a formal declaration.
You have an interesting situation there with the US being at war with Japan and Italy but not Germany. I can’t help but wonder how well that would work if you kept it up, but I don’t think it would work out. Germany would simply put an extra infantry in each Italian territory and you would never be able to fight the Italians without attacking Germany as well. Then again, in most of our games, Germany and Italy are pretty separated. Italy usually goes up against the Brits in the Med and Africa while Germany dives into Russia.

All infantry - best defense rating for the money and longest staying power due to a greater number of them.

@WARRIOR888:

Did any other scuplts change in the Pacific 1940 Second Edition besides the ones mentioned already?Â

I finished inspecting the new Global sculpts last weekend and here are the main differences I was able to spot between old and new versions of sculpts which are supposed to represent the same model of equipment. I took a few pictures (see below) to go with these notes. (I haven’t noted cases in which some of the details on the sculpts are simply defined a little better in one version than in another, without being different in actual shape.) Most of the differences involve sculpts which were introduced in 1942 (2nd ed) game, and which were then replaced by revised sculpts in the Global 1940 (2nd ed) game.

Artillery: 105mm LeFH 18 howitzer (German)
Introduced in 1942 (2nd ed), in which the breech and the undercarriage are connected. In the 1940 (2nd ed) version, there is a gap between them.
Antiaircraft Gun: 3.7in QFAA (British)
Introduced in 1942 (2nd ed). In the 1940 (2nd ed) version, there is an additional structure underneath the thick lower part of the barrel assembly, at the point where it connects to the mounting.
Antiaircraft Gun: M1939 85mm (Russian)
Introduced in 1942 (2nd ed), in which the gun ends with a flared muzzle brake. In the 1940 (2nd ed) version, the barrel is more slender and ends with grooves running around the barrel tip.
Antiaircraft Gun: 88mm FLAK 41 (German)
Introduced in 1942 (2nd ed), in which a spur extends backward from the base of the breech, the horizontal element projecting forward from the front of the mounting is cylindrical, and two of the mounting’s legs are thicker than the other two. In the 1940 (2nd ed) version, the breech is shorter, the horizontal element projecting forward from the front of the mounting is oval, and the mounting’s four legs are the same thickness.
Antiaircraft Gun: 75mm Type 88 (Japanese)
Introduced in 1942 (2nd ed), in which the mounting’s four legs are thicker than in the 1940 (2nd ed) version.
Cruiser: Kent class (British)
Introduced in Anniversary. In the 1940 (2nd ed) version, the third funnel is short instead of being the same height at the other two.

Wasn’t the US income in the Classic game 36IPC? With 24IPC one hit Battleships to boot!

IT is a ton of money. Germany can get into the sixties. Italy in our games has been tapping thirty itself. Japan is all over the place. Think I need to work out my Japanese strategy better, Make some DEI money while gaining territories in Russia
