Axis and Allies Global 1940 Battlemap

Yeah, I read that thread and decided to implement it. It’s working so far. I like having a quick reaction force from Germany to intervene in Africa if need be. I don’t have very strong forces in the former french territories and I’m about to rectify that situation. My opponent is obsessed with regaining the UK right now (has already failed twice) and sees Africa as a sideshow. I see it as a potential door to the “soft underbelly” of the Axis and am a bit disgruntled with my lack of defences in the region. Thanks for taking the time to comment.

sorry 'bout that.  try it now. I fixed it

That’s what I thought too, Garg.  Only Cow knows for sure  :lol:

@Arthur: The Germany and Japan playbooks that are stickied to the top of this G40 strategy page are amazing.  You will get a solid start as Axis if you follow those plans for the first couple of rounds.  Nothing beats experience as each game becomes different based on initial die rolls.  The top guys on the League play can beat the middle guys 90+% of the time. Would be better just to learn the game yourself first before copying someone else his strategy. sure those are good starting moves but you dont learn a lot from just copying from someone else, its like making a digital copy of a photo to learn to make good photo’s Im not claiming to be a verry good player and i have eventualy also used those strategies but they force every player into the exact same style of play. Just play a few games and you learn pretty quicky what to look out for and what not.

A lot of times what usually breaks the Allies is how poor US reacts to what side of the world to fight on.

@Gargantua: I can’t read that. You should have gone to specsavers

Im glad we agree on some problems, I just want to find a way to take out Japan without either completly abandon Europe or commit to Europe. A 60 - 40 economy split should work for the US at the bare minimum 70 - 30 might be better depending on the threat level UK middle east factory is always a great idea for support A Norway factory is good for the Allied Power who controls it(Unless it is Russia, because Leningrad Factory) For the Spanish Beach head what if the UK hit Sweden and/or Norway to contain it , just like we do with Turkey
