The $55 rule (for Global 1940 second edition)

  • '17 '16 '15 '14 '12

    HOW TO WIN:
    The first side to have a total of at least $55 in NATIONAL OBJECTIVES for 1 full round of play wins the game.
        - NOs do not count toward the total if the power’s capital is occupied by the enemy.
        - Once a side declares that they have achieved $55 in NOs, their total will be counted 1 round later and they will win the
          game if they have any combination of NOs that adds up to $55 at that time.

    Rationale
    Here are the NO totals that are likely to accumulate when one side or the other has won the game:

    Germany
