@Tizkit nice idea on the dice :+1:
Power Groupings - Global Game
-
I think Italy and the ANZAC should be played by the same person.
there on different sides
-
Germany and China should go together then.
-
I hadn’t really considered 7 players… :-o
-
Germany and China should go together then.
there still on different sides
the only axis nations are Italy Germany and Japan -
I like to hedge my bets.

Okay, here’s the best power grouping for a 6 player game:
Player 1 - USSR and Germany
Player 2 - Japan and US
Player 3 - UK and Italy
Player 4 - China
Player 5 - France
Player 6 - ANZACThis would definitely be optimal setup because it allows three of the players to play both sides. Who would want to be stuck on only one team? It also leaves the players with the three most important powers with only one power so no one player has all the fun.

How would you divide up a nine player game?
-
This is an interesting question, but I believe I have a solution.
Player 1 - England
Player 2 - Australia
Player 3 - India
Player 4 - Canada
Player 5 - Egypt
Player 6 - New Zealand
Player 7 - Scotland
Player 8 - South Africa
Player 9 - Germany, Japan, France, USSR, Italy, US, ChinaThis is optimal set up for a nine player game. We should divide up the British Empire, since they are way too powerful. World War 2 was mostly about breaking up the British Empire, so it would make sense to break it up between players to show the arguing within the empire, while the other powers, controlled by only one player since they are unimportant, fight each other.

I have a better solution:
Player 1 - Axis
Player 2 - AlliesWhat do you think? Axis and Allies. Has a familiar ring to it. Kind of catchy, huh?
-
No, that’s just stupid. Get out of here with your crazy ideas.

Well let me be the first to say that I do not play any war games, have never played any war games, and do not plan on playing a war game of any kind at any point in the future.

I can’t believe that or you wouldn’t be here.
Anyway pairings should be easier to determine once the turn order has been established.

I thought it had? For the global game at least, which is what I started the discussion about…
