Russian NO Idea

Yes. This sub-forum is about a different game.

HBG’s Global War

This forum is not only for HBG global war. There’s other global games listed here.
Yes if it is a global 40 question then you would get a better answer to your topic in the Global 40 thread. Just a bit confusing

@Talkalots:

I would post links but I’m limited from doing so, due to my lack of posts. Let me hit you a private message!

Thank you sir!
Sorry I havn’t responded sooner, I have given it a look (a while back, when you sent it) and I like what you’ve done. I’ve incorporated some aspects into my modifications, though not quite to the extent you have.
Thank you for sharing!

Another reason why I wish there was a tripleA module of this game.  To play against other people and learn new strategies.

Countries IPC taken is added to the die rolls. When Russia takes a territory it should be kept up with on an IPC tracker.

Thank you both. I understood the reasoning, different strategies and so forth, I was just asking about the procedure itself. I was confused as to : round 1 add 1 partisan, round 2 add 1 partisan, round 3 the 2 partisans form up to make 1 inf. or round 1 add 1, round 2 add another and then they form up right away.

So, do these two lose all or half of their IPC’s once the capital falls?

Hi ZoneDefence,

Welcome to the forum.

While they do not deal with Global 1939 in particular, there are some very interesting discussions regarding Russian strategies in the Axis and Allies.org forums.

Type “Russia Strategies” in the search bar above and you will find a wealth if information. You will need to separate the wheat from the chaff, but good, relevant strategies are there to be found. You can then adapt or enhance them in your Global '39 games as you see fit.

Good luck and, most of all, have fun!!!

@WILD:

Clarification for Variable :
Germany took Paris G1. This means that Italy joins the axis the beginning of It1 and would automatically be at war.

Italy doesn’t have the option of not going to war with Euro allies (UK & France) It1 if Paris falls right? If Paris falls, or Russia is attacked G1 the Italians join the axis It1 which means a DOW w/UK (and France) is assumed at the beginning of Italy’s turn.

Being that on UK1 Italy is still neutral, UK (and French) ships can pass through Italian occupied sz’s, and even share them if they choose to right. In other words a sz occupied w/neutral Italian ships doesn’t make it hostel, and may be passed through, or shared w/ships from the the allies.

2a) So in my above example the UK could slide a transport into sz40 w/the Italian navy to activate Greece and Yugo at the same time.

2b) On UK1, the English (or Free French) could NCM a dd to sz 41 w/neutral Italian ships, and on the Italians first turn they must join the axis by rule (Paris fell) and because they are at war now (w/UK & France), the allied dd in sz 41 would block the Italian fleet in sz39 from attacking the allies ships in sz42 right.

This all seems correct to me. Nice strat!
