Really could use a sticky for Errata/Questions/Etc. or something…..

@weddingsinger All I was trying to say is that parking your US fleet in SZ 6 is a recipe for disaster, when it can be in every space around SZ 6 and be much safer. You can however, park as many subs there as you want because 1) once you control that area, you can screen out destroyers who could come 2) he cant build ships in SZ 6 unless you threaten that build, so any destroyers that are built can be blown up before Japan’s next turn 3) the subs can’t be hit by either kamis or planes, whereas your surface fleet can usually be mopped up by Japan’s abundant air force returning home plus some kamis on the carriers to defeat the air support

True, I did not mean to say that one bad-luck battle increases your odds of a future good-luck battle. What I meant is that Global 1940 is a much bigger game than, say, Revised. Global has more units involved and more battles that matter. The effect of having more units and more battles is to soften the effect of any one unit missing or of any one battle going poorly. In other words, as you broaden your sample size, you get closer to achieving average results in the aggregate.

Ok miss read Krieg’s clarification on my highlighted section

EXCEPT in the 2nd edition board, the western territories of Canada have been merged together, and have a UK roundel.

Apparently M Night Shyamalan helped out with that twist.

Any of the Imperialist western nations, who have benefitted from white privledge.

After-all, those despicable Nazi Germans and their MULTI-CULTURAL alliance with Japan were totally evil.

It makes me feel good everytime I stop the axis, and thier godless race-mixing goals. Helping China, and Aiding Japan, against the traditional powers of old. Horrible.

How DARE they allow visible ethnic minorities into their militaries, without being conscripted into segregated units, or colonial divisions like America, Britain, or France had the good sense to do.

Attrocious!

thanx for clearing that up for me

I thought they had to be at war with japan too

I see the logic now that uk and dutch are at war with germany makes them buddies

House rule:  Submarines fire at 2 on defense if there is no enemy destroyer present…?

I’m currently playing a game which we borrowed some house rules from the previous poster in this thread. We are using tech tokens for 5 IPC’s each, but you can only purchase as many tech tokens as you have Victory Cities. You can purchase tech tokens, but may not take the rolls unless you are at war. So to start out the game Germany could buy 2 tech tokens. If they fail that first roll, then the next turn they could buy 1 more if they had taken out Paris. If not then they could only keep using the 2 they had left over from the previous turn. This version has taken away a lot of the luck aspect of tech which is nice. It also limits the amount of tech you can roll a turn so no power has an excessive amount. Small powers also have a harder time getting them.
