Convoy Raiding, Convoy Escorting, and Maritime Air Patrol (MAP) in Global War 1936-1945

You’re welcome.
In some ways GW-14 is the next evolution of V-3 as far as development. Almost all of the game mechanics are transferred from one game to another. As we are play testing and developing it we are constantly referring to the rulebook for 36 for how to resolve situations/rules in the game and then copy and pasting them into the 14 rulebook. It is a different game for a different time period though so much of it is new. I wouldn’t be surprised if more of the concepts in it are transferred to the next edition of 36 and/or some of the expansions. I’ve been looking at these rules for quite a while now and I didn’t realize that it wasn’t in any of the other rulesets until this.

@trig IIRC the wording is “Republican Spain aligns to the USSR if attacked” which can be a bit linguistically confusing. I agree that Republican Span is the one that needs to be attacked.

Thanks!

This starts in Jul 36.

Puppet/client states are going to be a mechanic in this setup. Basically it is a controlled minor that you can move in, and is harder for others to influence. In that way the Germans get some control over these land they sized from Russia. Other nations get them as well. Japan gets Manchuria and Transamur, the US gets the Philippines, etc

The Suez is going to be “moved.” Egypt and Transjordan will each control a side, like in G40. Currently, Transjordan starts as a German leaning minor.

Any advice on bonuses or victory objectives?

Thanks again GHG! I know the difference between a territory and a minor nation 🙂

I must have misread that rule somewhere to read territory when that wasn’t the case!

And again, I definitely overlooked the word Attacked in the reference sheets!

@GeneralHandGrenade Thanks for the info, GHG! Much appreciated as always!

@timothy-gengarella said in Air Bases:

ff in a land zone that does not have a airbase but land in a territory that has a airbase do you still get the bonus movement?

Youll get the movement bonus next turn.

You dont get extra movement to reach a base.

@MAX1313 I think you misspoke a bit above. You mention V3 every time, when I think you meant V2 somewhere in there.

I’m not 100% positive on this, but I believe the East vs. West Expansion was created with V3 in mind. Meaning, some of the territory names on the map have changed from V2. So if you only have the V2 map, I think you’ll see things from the East vs. West Expansion that do not make sense.

One of the reasons I’m debating getting V3 still. Would love to have the compatibility with the Expansions, as I have a feeling V2 will fall completely to the wayside eventually, which would make sense.
